Not every PC can handle Windows 11, especially older models. To check, you can download Microsoft’s PC Health Check app from their website. Once installed, the tool scans your hardware and confirms whether your system meets the requirements for Windows 11.

If your PC isn’t compatible, the upgrade option won’t appear in Windows Update. At that point, the most cost-effective choice is usually replacing the device with a newer model that does support Windows 11.

At Edmondson’s we can help you weigh up the options, whether that’s upgrading specific components like storage or memory, or recommending reliable new machines that fit your budget and business needs.
