When called, the installed app then loads an update that is supposed to improve detection. This strange process can be explained by the fact that the old version of the app is still being downloaded. A progress bar comes up when you call it up: Preparing to install an update, installing something and that's it. I noticed that the app can be installed without administrator rights. Furthermore, there were some irritations with the first version of the tool regarding its results.Īccording to the above tweet, Microsoft has revised the PC Health Check tool. However, the tool requires Windows 10 version 1803 or higher to be installed.

This MSI installation file can be downloaded from the Windows 10 site (see the 'Get ready' section).

Microsoft had already released its PC Health Check tool on 24 June 2021, directly after the presentation of Windows 11. Reliable tools for checking whether a machine is suitable would be just right. The obligation for TPM 1.2 or better 2.0 as well as the hardware requirements may put a spanner in the works. Even those who have a Windows 10 machine, and although Microsoft promised a free upgrade, won't always be able to upgrade to Windows 11. I did go into detail about the minimum requirements set by Microsoft in the Windows 11: Hardware requirements.
