  Feature-specific requirements for Windows 10

  Language versions

  Feature deprecations and removals

These are the basic requirements for installing Windows 10 on a PC. If your device does not meet these requirements, you may not have the great experience intended with Windows 10 and might want to consider purchasing a new PC.

There may be additional requirements over time for updates, as well as requirements to turn on specific features within the OS.

Windows 10 is designed to deliver updates for the supported lifetime of the device. Two types of updates may be provided: quality updates and feature updates. Quality updates include both security and non-security updates and are typically targeted to be released once a month. Feature updates also include security and non-security fixes as well as new features to Windows 10 and are typically provided twice a year. Ensuring that your device receives these updates and is kept up-to-date is important for your device security. Windows 10 periodically checks for updates so you don’t have to. When an update is available—and sufficient free disk space is available on your device—it will be automatically installed. So that Windows 10 continues to stay updated, it’s important to ensure your device has sufficient free space. See additional applicable details in the following notes.

Important notes about updates:

• A device might not be able to receive updates if the device hardware is incompatible, if it lacks current drivers or sufficient available hard drive space, or if it’s otherwise outside of the Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (“OEM”) support period. Visit the Windows Lifecycle Fact Sheet or the Lifecycle FAQ for Windows products to learn more about the servicing timeline for each feature update.
  • Some of the disk space needed for installing updates is only temporarily required. Typically, ten days after installing an update, a disk cleanup will be automatically performed to delete copies of the older, unneeded Windows files and free up space again.
     
• Not all features in an update will work on all devices.
• An internet connection is required to perform updates and Internet access (ISP) fees might apply.
• If you need assistance installing an update, Windows 10 Update Assistant may be able to help.

The size of the Windows operating system that comes with your device and the amount of space needed to download and install Windows updates, are highly variable as they depend on a variety of factors. Visit here to learn why. The factors that impact the amount of free hard drive space needed to take an update include: the versions of Windows previously installed on the machine, the amount of disk space available to reuse from Windows files, such as the virtual memory pagefile or hibernation file, which applications are installed on your device and how those applications store data. Starting with the May 2019 Update, the system requirements for hard drive size for clean installs of Windows 10 as well as new PCs changed to a minimum of 32GB. The 32GB or larger drive requirement is set to leave space for users to install apps and to keep data on the device. Installing Windows or updating from a previous version of Windows on devices with less than 32GB storage will continue to work if the device has enough free space available. When updating, Windows will attempt to automatically free up enough hard drive space and guide you through freeing up even more if the automatic cleanup is not sufficient. You can also take steps to free up space on your own. For more information, see Free up space to install the latest Windows 10 update or visit the related FAQ.

In addition to the requirements above that are needed to run Windows, some features have additional requirements. In some cases, features included with updated versions of Windows 10 will be best experienced with newer processors. For specific hardware support please refer to your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Below are some additional details regarding requirements for key features:

• BitLocker Drive Encryption (available with Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Enterprise only) requires a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2 or higher and Trusted Computing Group (TCG)-compliant BIOS or UEFI. BitLocker can be used on devices without TPM, but you will need to save a startup key on a removable device such as a USB flash drive. TPM 2.0 and InstantGo support is required when you want to automatically encrypt the local drive when joining a device to Azure Active Directory (AAD). Check with your PC manufacturer to confirm if your device supports the correct TPM version and InstantGo for the scenario you want to enable.
• BitLocker To Go requires a USB flash drive (available in Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise only).
• Client Hyper-V requires a 64-bit system with second level address translation (SLAT) capabilities and additional 2 GB of RAM (available in Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise only).

It Is Necessary to Check for Windows 10 Compatibility

Nowadays Windows 10 operating system has become most popular due to its powerful features although it sucks in some aspects.

Most users choose to upgrade to the new system from Windows Vista/XP/7/8. However, many Windows update problems happen. One of the reasons is that your machine is not compatible with Windows 10. The software, apps, and drivers on your device don’t work for the system. In particular, a bad driver can wreak havoc your system.

So, you need to first perform a Windows 10 compatibility check before a system update. This mainly aims to avoid troubles of downloading the OS and running the setup tool only to figure out whether obvious compatibility problems exist. Besides, Windows 10 compatibility test can give you a choice to consider solutions before upgrading to Windows 10 when some compatibility issues are found.

In the following parts, let’s go to see how to do check Windows 10 compatibility.

Check Windows 10 System Requirements

Microsoft officially states some minimum requirements for Windows 10 on its website so that you can make sure if your computer can run the new operating system, as shown below.

• Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster processor or System on a Chip (SoC)
• RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) for 32-bit, 2 GB for 64-bit
• Hard drive space: 16 GB for 32-bit OS / 32 GB for 64-bit OS
• Graphics card: DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver
• Display: 800×600

Although these are the minimum requirements, it’s best to always exceed these values to avoid any obstacle when using the upgraded system in the future.

If your PC meets the minimum requirements or exceeds in some way, you should be all right.

If the PC can’t meet system requirements, you cannot upgrade your machine to Windows 10 unless you take a hardware upgrade into account. That is, you may need to update CPU, increase the RAM, buy a new graphics card or get a large hard drive to build a suitable environment for your PC to run Windows 10 without any compatibility problems.

Most of these requirements mentioned above are simple, but for the graphics card, it requires the DirectX version. So, firstly you need to know which graphics card you are using so as to know if it satisfies DirectX.

Check Which Graphics Card You Are Using

Step 1: Open the Run box by hitting Win + R keys.

Step 2: Input dxdiag and click OK.

Step 3: Go to the Display tab and you can see much information about your graphics card.

Step 4: Go to the Internet and check if the specifications of your graphics card support DirectX9 or later.

Go Beyond System Requirements to Ensure Windows 10 Compatibility

In addition to system requirements, you should also check software compatibility and driver compatibility. This is very important. If you don’t do the checks, once you start the upgrade, the Windows 10 installation process will be stopped when some errors and compatibility issues are found.

To avoid trouble, check the software and driver compatibility now.

Check Software Compatibility

It has been a long time since the release of Windows 10. Most of the software suppliers have already rolled out the new versions of their popular software and they are compatible with Windows 10. Just update your software if you haven’t updated them.

For critical and frequently-used apps, you can go to the developer website to know if they have the current version of Windows 10.

Check Hardware Specifications and Driver Compatibility

When upgrading from Windows Vista/XP/7/8 to Windows 10, you should consider the hardware requirements. Driver issues can be troublesome, especially during your system update.

So, it is necessary to download updated drivers from the hardware manufacturers’ websites and install them after or before installing Windows 10 update to ensure the system can run flawlessly without any issue.
