    Check Windows 11 eligibility using PC Health Check app:

    Hi Bhoomi Daga,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum. I understand you want to check if your laptop can run Windows 11 and upgrade without any hassle. Let me walk you through the easiest way to do it.

    Here’s how to get started:

    1. Check if your laptop is ready for Windows 11

    Download the PC Health Check tool from Microsoft’s official site. It will quickly confirm if your device meets the requirements and let you know what to do if it doesn’t.

    2. Upgrade to Windows 11

    If your laptop is eligible, you have a few options:

    • Go to Settings > Windows Update, click Check for updates, and select Download and install if Windows 11 appears.
    • If you’d like a guided option, you can use Microsoft’s Installation Assistant for a step-by-step upgrade or choose the advanced method by downloading the Windows 11 ISO and creating a bootable USB drive for a clean installation.

    Before you start, please back up your files and keep your laptop plugged in with a stable internet connection.

    If you run into any issues or just need a hand, please feel free to reply to this thread. I’ll be happy to help you out.
