Compared with previous Windows systems, Windows 11 has stricter system requirements, and many computers sold in 2018 or before did not meet its minimum specifications. Although there are many ways to install Windows 11 on these computers, Microsoft also has countermeasures, such as adding warning words during installation, and threatening not to provide updates to these computers, but it has not been implemented so far.
Recently, some users found that after Windows 11 was updated to the latest internal beta version, it would add nuisance warnings to computers whose specifications did not meet the minimum requirements, which would appear in the lower right corner of the desktop in the form of a watermark for a long time. Similar watermarks used to only appear on computers running early beta systems, or Windows systems that were not officially enabled. Now, as long as the computer has hardware or firmware that does not meet the Windows 11 requirements, the watermark will appear.
Even if the hardware fully meets the requirements of Windows 11, but Secure Boot or TPM is turned off, the watermark will always be displayed on the desktop until the user makes corrections (or turns it off by modifying the Registry). It is reported that this new feature is available in Windows 11 22000.588, and the current version is still in the Windows Insider Release Preview channel, which is expected to be officially launched in a few weeks.
