  1. This is not the case with me I assume it has something to do with disk space available, but that is not something that windows 11 installation assistant or health check app informed me about. so I have no clue as to what the exact problem is and its frustrating to say the least.

  2. Yep. I have run the PC Health Check App which displays my PC meets requirements, however, when I re-run the Installation Assistant I am asked again and again to “Use the PC Health Check app to check compatibility”. I can Refresh or Exit.
