Update a HUAWEI computer to Windows 11

Procedure

1. The update may take a long time. Make sure that your computer is connected to a power supply and network, and the network connection is stable. (Unstable signal may lead to update failure.)
2. Check whether your computer supports the update to Windows 11 by referring to Computers that can be updated to Windows 11. If your computer supports the update, go to the next step. Otherwise, the update cannot be performed.
3. Check whether your computer meets the Windows 11 update requirements by referring to Using Microsoft's PC Health Check app to check if my computer meets Windows 11 system requirements. If your computer meets the requirements, go to the next step. Otherwise, the update cannot be performed.
4. Check whether your computer is HUAWEI MateBook E 2019 or HUAWEI MateBook E Go (including the Standard, Performance, and 2023 models).
   • If so, update them to Windows 11 using Windows Update.
   • If not, go to the next step.
5. Check whether your computer is running Windows 10 2004 (operating system version 19041) or later by referring to Viewing the Windows version.
   • If so, go to the next step.
   • If not, use Windows Update to update the system version. If the system is updated to Windows 11 directly, no follow-up procedure is required. Otherwise, go to the next step.
6. Check whether the available storage space of drive C is greater than 10 GB.
   • If so, go to the next step.
   • If not, free up space on drive C until the available storage space is greater than 10 GB before proceeding with the next step.
7. Back up important files to an external storage device (such as a USB flash drive or portable hard disk) to avoid loss of important files.
   

   Some applications are only compatible with Windows 10 and may not install or function properly after upgrading to Windows 11.

8. Visit Microsoft's official website (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11) and click Download Now under Windows 11 Installation Assistant.
