        unsupported hardware won't be entitled to updates, though when and how   
        that cutoff is decided remains unclear, as this feature would have   
        been pointless had that time already come.   
      
        It's also worth noting that, as previously reported by The Register,   
        hardware requirement checks on Windows 11 are only performed when   
        upgrading a PC from Windows 10, and it's those instances where the   
        bypass comes in, and where warnings will start to appear.   
      
        Fresh Windows 11 installations from an ISO file don't check for   
        hardware requirements, so if you're willing to start fresh you might   
        be able to avoid this entire kerfuffle.   
      
        Unless, that is, Microsoft is adding that watermark to all systems,   
        even those with a fresh installation that didn't experience a hardware   
        check with a prior version of Windows 11.
