In this article, I am going to walk you through downloading the official Windows 11 ISO and the installation of VirtualBox and Windows 11. By making a small change in the registry we can still install Win11 as a VM. Windows 11 requires a TPM 2.0 chip, which can prevent the installation on VirtualBox.

Using VirtualBox we can safely test Windows 11 before we upgrade our work/daily computer. The best way to do this is in a VirtualBox. See the new layout for yourself, and test the new look and feel of Windows 11. As an IT enthusiast or professional, you probably want to test it out. If their site thinks you're not on Windows, they'll offer you direct download links to the ISOs valid for 24h.The new version of Windows, Windows 11, is out. The reason is that if they see you use Windows they'll offer you their downloader EXE, which can only download to drive C: and if it's full (which is usual when using a small SSD drive as the main one) you can't download even if you have a secondary drive with several free TBs, since you can't choose another drive. I used this one for Chrome: (User-Agent Switcher for Chrome) You just have to either use a non-Windows PC (Linux, Mac, Android, whatever.) or use a user-agent spoofer tool so Microsoft's website thinks you're not in Windows. There's another option to download the ISOs from Microsoft.
