Now compare the SHA256 CHECKSUM with Microsoft web site at

If they match you are good to proceed.

2- My PC from eBay.com a hp z640 – default language: de-de, change to us-en

If proceed with Upgrade from 22H2 to 23H2:

Normally will run the file setup.exe in the root file structure of the ISO. BEFORE DO THIS the ISO file gets burned on DVD, mounted to a drive, or extracted from ISO to a USB Stick location. You have to do this for both ISOs

Win11_23H2_German_x64v2.iso and Win11_23H2_English_USA_x64v2.iso

There are 2 problems Language should be de-de/German and hardware restrictions.

To bypass the language in the Win11_23H2_German_x64v2.iso extraction replace the folder:

G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\de-de

with

Win11_23H2_English_USA_x64v2\sources\en-us\

We proceed as follows: copy the Win11_23H2_English_USA_x64v2\sources\en-us\ to G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\

Rename the:

G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\de-de\

G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\de-de_2\

and the H:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\en-us\ to G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\de-de\ .

This way I can follow in ENGLISH during the upgrade as I do not know German, see screenshots:

3- Bypass Restrictions of Win-11 Pro for WS: upgrade 22H2 to 23H2 *

The last step is to start the Upgrade process from 22H2 to 23H3. If the hardware supports Windows 11, we proceed to run the:

“G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\setup.exe”

But the hardware is unsupported:

So, we proceed as follows:

Open CLI as Administrator and go to the folder:

G:\Win11_23H2_German_x64v2-en\sources\

THEN WE GIVE THE COMMAND:

setupprep.exe /product server

This will start the upgrade process ignoring the Hardware Restrictions of Windows 11.

Please ignore the “Install Windows Server” – It does not matter – it is upgrading the OS in which you run it, in our case Windows 11 Pro for Workstations – but, can also be Windows 11 Home, Windows 11 Pro, if e.g. Home or Pro, Windows 11.

Press “Next”

Press “Accept”

Press “Next”

Press “Install”.
[If you use a PC I recommend a UPS or if you use Laptop Plug-in the power cord]

4- After upgrading from 22H2 to 23H2, Win-11 Pro for Workstations, some minor updates may be needed

You proceed normally for minor updates – there is no check for unsupported hardware. See below shots:

here are some German words involved, for unknown reason:

You can search in Settings for “lang”, normally if you log out, re-login, or restart the PC, when prompted – some of the screen words may be in German but you will understand the RESTART Button is self-explanatory.
