Hello, so i have a quick question i have an older gaming laptop with i7 6700hq cpu in it. it was a good gaming laptop back in the time but now i mostly use it to play league. I wanted to install windows 11 but i dont have a secure boot and apparently supported cpu which is a shame since this cpu is actually stronger then my brothers new laptop that he uses for studying and has windows 11 on it. Question is can i somehow bypass secureboot and cpu requirements and install windows 11? Laptop support tpm 2.0 tho.

There is a tool called Rufus which let you create a customized installation.

It'll let you bypass several things and disable Bitlocker and more.

Use Rufus to create the bootable media, it will ask you if you want to bypass the requirements.

English is not my first language, so please excuse any confusion or misunderstandings on my end, also I like to edit my posts a lot.

Do i still get the same kind of support as normal installation of win 11 like updates and stuff?

Yup, may need a bit more manual involvement getting a couple drivers but overall no difference between officially allowed (not supported, specific choice of words here) and not allowed device.
