This third-party app bypasses Microsoft's stringent Windows 11 24H2 system requirements and installs the massive update on unsupported hardware

What you need to know

  • Microsoft’s stringent system requirements make it difficult for users to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 despite the former’s looming death.
  • A new third-party app lets you bypass some of these requirements, including Secure Boot and TPM, letting users install Microsoft’s latest version of Windows 11 (24H2) on unsupported hardware.
  • DISCLAIMER: Running unsupported third-party apps could brick your device. Proceed with caution.

As an observer with over two decades of tech industry experience, I find myself both intrigued and cautious regarding these new developments. Microsoft’s stringent system requirements for Windows 11 have undeniably created a bottleneck for many users looking to upgrade from Windows 10. The looming end-of-support date for Windows 10 has added urgency to this situation, leaving users with limited options.


Even though Microsoft anticipates the demise of Windows 10 by October 14, 2025, it’s proving difficult for them to boost market share for Windows 11.

Approximately three years have passed since the release of Windows 11, yet it controls only about one-third (33.37%) of the market share compared to its rival, which commands an impressive 62.79%. The sluggish growth and low adoption rate of Windows 11 can be linked to factors like Microsoft’s high system requirements and some design flaws.

As the end of Windows 10 draws near, users find themselves with a limited set of choices: upgrading to Windows 11, purchasing a new PC running Windows 11, migrating to Linux or Mac, or even extending the support for Windows 10 for an additional three years, a service that is currently available for both commercial and individual users. However, the specific cost for this extended support has not been disclosed yet.

In the mix of the first two possibilities, a fresh option from an external source has emerged. This newcomer is Developer Belim, recognized for creating third-party customization tools for Windows, who recently introduced a novel tool named Flyby11. This innovative tool enables users to sidestep essential system requirements when running Microsoft’s Windows 11, version 24H2 on their personal computers (as reported by Neowin).

Review: Windows 11 2024 Update (24H2)

According to the developer:

Flyby11 is a straightforward tool that bypasses the limitations stopping you from setting up Windows 11 (version 24H2) on computers it deems unsupported. If you’ve got an older computer that lacks TPM, Secure Boot, or doesn’t have a compatible processor, Flyby11 enables you to install Windows 11 24H2 regardless.

Flyby11 employs a unique aspect of the Windows 11 installation procedure that utilizes the Windows Server version for setup. Unlike typical installations, this server-based setup bypasses most hardware compatibility tests, enabling it to operate on systems not officially supported by Windows 11.

As a dedicated Windows 11 enthusiast, I’ve discovered an amazing find called Seelen UI Utility – a third-party tool that allows me to personalize my Windows 11 experience far beyond what Microsoft offers. Flyby11, you see, helps me bypass the strict system requirements set for Windows 11, but it’s Seelen UI Utility that truly lets me make this operating system mine!

This software comes equipped with numerous features suitable for both Windows 11 and Windows 10. Among these are anticipated innovations like the floating Taskbar from the rumored Windows 12, as well as a Tiling Windows Manager designed to facilitate multitasking. However, it’s important to note that there’s a condition attached: you need to install Microsoft Edge in order to fully enjoy its customizable desktop environment.

To minimize potential risks, it is recommended that users conduct tests and set up unapproved and external software applications within Virtual Environments instead.
