Microsoft's Clean Windows 11 Runs on Any PC

SAPO Notícias6 September 2026 at 22:00

Microsoft presented on September 4 Project Zenith, a version of Windows 11 described as "ready to code," without suggestions in the Start menu or widgets, theoretically reserved for PCs with 64 GB of memory.

However, tests showed that this clean version of Windows 11 can be installed on virtually any computer, contradicting the restrictions initially announced by Microsoft.

The base version of Project Zenith requires only 64 GB of storage, and the RAM memory requirements appear to be more flexible than initially suggested.

This discovery suggests that Microsoft may be positioning this minimalist edition of Windows 11 as a viable option for a wider range of users and devices than previously thought.
