However, Microsoft says this process is intentionally cautious. Existing machines will be upgraded slowly, so most people haven't gotten a prompt to upgrade yet. The software launched earlier this month on new PCs, and as a free upgrade for some Windows 10 users.
This is probably just one of many ways Microsoft is going to try and nudge people toward upgrading to Windows 11. It won't run in the background or collect your data - but this is more about the principle. You can head into the registry editor and navigate to, and then find "PreviousUninstall." Change the value to "1," and Windows won't install the app again the next time you check for updates. You can, however, block the installation as long as you don't mind mucking around in the registry. You can uninstall the app, but it will come back. Once it's installed, you can't even roll back the change. The PC Health CHeck app will arrive on Windows 10 systems as part of the KB5005463 update. The PC Health Check app examining a system that doesn't have TPM 2.0, and thus can't run Windows 11. However, checking these things only takes a few minutes, and then you're left with an app you'll probably never open again. Making sure your PC is compatible is more important than it was for past Windows Operating Systems, as Microsoft has narrowed the OS's hardware support with mandatory features like TMP 2.0 and a modern CPU. One click, and you can find out if your PC is compatible.
The Windows 11 functionality is listed right at the top.
It's that last item that probably encouraged Microsoft to push the app to everyone. Ostensibly, the Health Check app tells you about the status of your PC, links to important settings, and helps you plan your upgrade to Windows 11. Don't want it? Tough, you're getting the Microsoft PC Health Check app regardless of whether or not you've expressed interest in Windows 11. Now there's a new update rolling out, and this one adds a new app to your machine (Opens in a new window). Microsoft is no stranger to frustrating OS updates after years of rolling out unblockable OTAs for Windows 10.
