Windows 11 compatibility: Microsoft's PC Health Check App is back
Windows Insiders can now access an updated PC Health Check app that aims to provide more utility than its previous iterations, which left many users confused over the state of their machine's eligibility for Windows 11.
Highlights--
The Health Check app has been helping people determine whether their machines are eligible for Windows 11.
It has had some issues with conveying feedback.
Now, Insiders are getting an updated preview version set to clean up the app's shortcomings.
When Microsoft released the Windows 11 Insider preview earlier this summer, it did so with some confusion around minimum system requirements. It quickly reversed course, saying that more people could install the software update than its requirements originally stated so the company could gather more performance on how the OS performed.
Microsoft had previously removed the app due to reports that it didn't give people enough information about why their devices weren't compatible. Now, the app will tell you if your computer meets the requirements to run Windows 11, and if it doesn't, it will tell you why, and provide links for more support.
