    I have a 2018 MacBook Pro running macOS Big Sur 11.6. I updated to Parallels 17.1.0 but still receive the error message: "Your PC doesn't meet the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11." The "Parallels Desktop for Mac compatibility with Windows 11 - Known Issues" Knowledge Base page says this issue was fixed with the 17.1.0 update. Is there something else I need to do? Thank you.

    This is only possible to install Win11 as new virtual machine. Upgrade from Win10 is not possible, therefore one looses the licence, access to software from Win10 and so on. This should be clearly stated at Paralells page instead of untrue statement that 17.1 is full compatible with Win11. I recommend removing misleading info from your webpage.

    Did you remember to manually add the TPM device in the VM hardware configuration?

    Just installed Windows 11 on OSX Monetary. Fast and easy install from ISO file with a new Retail Windows 11 key. That being said EDGE and CHROME browsers are really slow. Any suggestions?

    I will give it a shot as the support won't answer for almost two weeks.

    Have you tried the edit registry tweak?
    Method to Bypass Windows 11 Hardware Requirements Check (In Short)
    Quick summary:

    1. Open Registry Editor using regedit command in run dialog box.

    2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup key.

    3. In right-side pane, create new DWORD AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU and set its value to 1 to bypass or skip all hardware requirements check by Windows 11 setup wizard and install it on unsupported devices.

    Thx - did read this on other forums but they also stated that this will likely prevent further updates. And this installation is crucial to me so I don't want to "mess" around.
