Windows 11 Insider Preview first hands on

First hands on Windows 11 Insider Preview

Being a registered Microsoft Insider, I have got access to Windows 11 ISO and I thought to give it a try and make my hands dirty by playing with it a little.

I created a Virtual Machine in VMware Workstation with following Settings in order to Install Windows 11 on it.:

 

 

ISO : Windows11_InsiderPreview_EnterpriseVL_x64_en-us_22000.iso

 

After allocating 4 GB of Memory and almost 60 GB HDD (default) with 2 CPU Cores, Lets kick start the installation !!

 

As Soon as it is powered on it will prompt to press any key to boot from CD,  Please do so and you will be greeted with Booting screen


Select Locale/Language settings and hit Next


Click on Install now


At next screen I Noticed there are several edition of Windows 11 available in this ISO.
