If the Virtual Machine doesn’t support Secure Boot, you can go to VM Settings, Security to enable it.
If you don’t see the Secure Boot in Security, that is because the Secure Boot is supported only on Generation 2 virtual machines.
If you receive a message: This PC doesn’t currently meet Windows 11 system requirements, and The PC must support TPM 2.0, you can enable TPM by going to VM Settings, Security,
Windows 10 will reach the end of support on October 14, 2025. After this date, Microsoft will no longer release free security updates, bug fixes, or provide technical support for the operating system. In this video, we will guide you through the process of upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11.
Check System Requirements: Ensure your PC meets the minimum requirements for Windows 11. You can use Microsoft’s PC Health Check tool to verify compatibility.
Backup Your Files: Create a backup of all your important files to avoid any data loss during the upgrade process. Type Windows backup in the search bar. Open Windows backup. Use an external hard drive or cloud storage.
Run Windows Updates
1) Open Windows Update: Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
Check for Updates: Click on “Check for updates.” If your PC is compatible, the option to upgrade to Windows 11 should appear.
3) Download and Install: Select the Windows 11 update and click “Download and install.” Follow the on-screen instructions.
Restart Your PC: Once the installation is complete, restart your PC when prompted. Your system may reboot several times during the process.
Set Up Windows 11: After the final restart, you’ll be guided through the initial setup for Windows 11.
If your PC is running an older version of Windows 10, you may not be able to upgrade it to Windows 11. In this case, you need to update to the latest version of Windows 10 first.
Another possible reason you can’t upgrade to Windows 11 is that your PC’s current settings do not enable TPM 2.0. If your PC is equipped with TPM 2.0, you may need to access the BIOS and enable it.
We also provide a list of other possible reasons why your PC may not upgrade to Windows 11.
1. Hardware Incompatibility: Windows 11 has specific hardware requirements, such as:
o A compatible processor (Intel 8th Gen/AMD Zen 2 or newer).
o Secure Boot capability.
o At least 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.
2. Outdated BIOS/UEFI: If your motherboard’s firmware is outdated, it might not support features like Secure Boot or TPM 2.0 or older CPUs.
3. Unsupported Graphics Card: Windows 11 requires a graphics card compatible with DirectX 12 or later.
4. Registry or Group Policy Blocking Upgrade: Some organizations or users manually block Windows 11 upgrades via **Group Policy** or **Registry edits**.
If the Windows Update check doesn’t offer the option to upgrade to Windows 11, you can manually upgrade by downloading the Windows 11 ISO file and installing it.

Each resource account requires a Microsoft Teams Phone Resource Account license. You can obtain these licenses through your Microsoft 365 subscription.
· Assign Phone Numbers
You need to assign phone numbers to the resource accounts so that external callers can reach the auto attendant. This can be done through the Microsoft Teams admin center.
· Permissions
Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to manage resource accounts. Typically, you’ll need Global Admin permissions in the Microsoft 365 admin center1.
· Add and Assign Resource Accounts
Create resource accounts in the Microsoft Teams admin center. These accounts are disabled for sign-in and are used exclusively for auto attendants and call queues.
· Configure Auto Attendant
Set up the auto attendant using the Microsoft Teams admin center. Define menu options, call routing rules, and other settings.
