So, that installation seems to be ruined and a fresh Windows 10 installation would be needed to see, if Windows 11 Update arrives at some point - sooner than mid-2022, which is Microsoft announcement. VM was part of Beta Insider Program, but trying to get rid of Beta Updates did not work, as explained by Microsoft. Windows Update into Win 11 wasn't available on my Win 10 computer.

I didn't try this 3rd Party method with the original version, because that wasn't yet available, yesterday (it usually takes a couple of days to arrive there). Beta-release, when using 3rd Party UUP DUMP method, did install and work from ISO. Hard to say why, but none of the new requirements are met on my Host and I haven't done anything to VM-computer firmware. Official version of Windows 11, English, Oct-5-2021, does not work on VMware when trying to install it from ISO. Why would you use brand new Windows 11 to run older games (if that is what you wrote)? Why don't you use an older system, perhaps existing Windows 10 if they work there? You can always buy a new license for Windows 10 or Windows 11.ĮDIT: Minor changes for clarity and this addition: Perhaps tomorrow we will know, but I doubt it if you install from ISO, it is obscure what Updates you don't get from Microsoft or How exactly you don't get them. It is obscure, what they really are and what they really are in virtualization development series, does not work if hardware requirements are not met.

Beta Releases require that you join Insider Group. beta release series (commented in length in some other, very recent thread) works when installing from ISO, created with 3rd Party downloader & iso creator, works without specific hardware limitations. commercial version that you can buy, may come out October 5th, or it is just published then free upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 comes much later, perhaps only next year, by mid-2022 per Microsoft announcement

What I have personally read from the various IT News sources: Implicitly, you assume that somebody else than Microsoft knows what Microsoft is doing October 5th with Windows 11.
