The installation process will take time according to the USB drive and Internet speed.Now we can select the drive then press “ Next” and click “ Flash” on the next screen.Note: Make sure the USB drive is connected. On next screen we have to select a language and then choose where you want to install Windows 11. After that the WoR window will pops up, then we need to select Windows 11 and Pi4/400 respectively and click “Next”.Once the clone complete we can install the WoR on Raspberry Pi. We need to open “Terminal” and then use the below command to clone the WoR flasher image. WoR (Windows on Raspberry Pi) is a tool for installing Windows 11 on a USB disk. Sudo shutdown - r Step-3 : Installing WoR (Windows on Raspberry Pi) So, we need to open terminal and use the below command to update the OS and upgrade the firmware. We need to always update our Pi on latest Firmware to get the latest features and updates. Using a blank drive or saving the data is recommended before proceeding further.
Note: The USB drive will be completely erased in the installation process.Once the image flashed to SD card, we can start the process of Windows 11 installation. The software will flash the SD card and install the latest image. To start the practical we will start by downloading the Raspberry Pi OS image by using Raspberry Pi Imager software.
Step-1: Raspberry Pi OS installation using Raspberry Pi Imager But this method is slow in comparison to installing from PC. This is the easiest method to install windows 11 on Raspberry Pi 4. In this method we will use windows computer to download the Windows 11 ISO image and then use the installer to Install Windows 11 OS directly on SD card or SSD.Ī 16 GB or more space is required and a Class 10 SD card is recommended. For Windows 11 OS Installation, 32 GB is recommended.For Raspberry Pi OS Installation, 16 GB is recommended.In this process we need to use the latest firmware and some commands to accomplish the task. We can use Raspberry Pi OS to directly install windows 11 on External SSD or USB Drive. Method 1 : Install from Raspberry Pi OS.In few minutes or so, you will see a loading animation under the logo, if the screen appears to be frozen, DON'T RESTART THE RASPBERRY PI! I did this once, and it never booted up again! (Like I mean Windows, not any OS) then you would see a white screen and the Windows 11 logo, and put a ethernet cable in, if you don't have one or don't want to use it, use the next steps after.We can use two methods to perform the above task. scroll down to 'Continue' and it will direct you to a Raspberry Pi Logo, You need to be VERY careful for this step! As if you do it wrong you can fail the entire thing! Put the USB device, keyboard, mouse and the HDMI cable, when you boot it up, keep on clicking the 'esc' key, until you see the screen above, use the arrow keys to scroll down to Device Manager, then select Raspberry Pi Configuration, and select Advanced Configuration, scroll to 'Limit RAM to 3GB' and set it to 'Disabled' using the 'enter' key, press the 'f10' key to save and press 'esc' to leave and keep on pressing it to go to the first menu. Great! Now let's install! Step 3: Let's Install! Thirdly, when it is done, press 0 to close the app and now we have a ISO image! Now we need to download WoR, which is short for Windows On Raspberry, download this from their website and after click download, after it is done, unzip the file to wherever you want and start WoR.exe from the folder. Second, unzip the file to wherever you want, but make sure it is not hard to find, then click on the uup_download_windows.cmd and after click more info and run anyway, then you will see lots of text, that means it is downloading, this process may take a long time.
This is how you do it, click this link, then choose your language, (which is English), then after choose the edition you want, (we chose only Windows Pro) and then click next, for the download method, choose 'Download and convert to ISO' and for conversion options, only choose 'Include Updates' and nothing else and then press the create download package. For this you will need to download some stuff, to get Windows 11 working on Raspberry Pi 4/400,įirstly download a Windows on ARM image from UUPDUMP.
