2. Close Windows File Explorer

Most people face memory leak issues in Windows 11 associated with the File Explorer app. To see if this is the case then right-click on the file explorer icon from the taskbar and click on Close all windows. This will close all opened and active windows of file explorer.

Now wait for a few moments and then go to resource monitor again and see if the memory leak issues still exist or not. At times, quitting Windows file explorer completely could solve the memory leak issue in Windows 11. If this doesn’t fix the problem for you then move on to the next methods.

3. See If The Issue Is Application Specific

Sometimes, the issue might be with only a single program and closing the same might solve the issue. To confirm this, open Windows Task Manager and go through the Processes list. Here, look for applications of programs using unusually high amounts of RAM.

If you found any such application then try closing it completely and see if it solves the issue or not. For example, a lot of people face memory leak issues in Windows 11 associated with Windows File Explorer.

4. Manually Free Up RAM

Another method that you can employ to fix memory leak issue is to manually free up the RAM. This means you need to open Task Manager and close programs forcefully to solve the issue.

Right-click on the Task Bar and click on Task Manager (or press Ctrl + Alt + Del and open Task Manager)

Move to the Processes tab to find all services and programs that are currently active. You need to right-click on those tasks and click on the End task button to manually quit it. Repeat the same process for other tasks and this way you can manually free up RAM.

If you face taskbar freezing issue then here is a fix for it.

What is Memory Leak in Windows?

Memory leak issue is when the RAM is refusing to release the memory allocated to Windows File Explorer even when no instances of it is running. This means, even when the File Explorer is not running, it is still holding some memory which causes a memory leak in Windows 11.

If you have a computer with a low amount of RAM then you will notice memory leak issues faster than others with a high amount of RAM. Most of the time, people with computers having high RAM won’t even notice the issue.

Also, take a look at some cool Windows 11 skins and themes.

Solve Memory Leak in Windows 11

These are some of the working methods that you can try to fix memory leak in Windows 11. Even if you are a Windows 10 user, the same methods mentioned in this article will work for you as well. The easiest method is to use EmptyStandBy list application to clear the standby list after every specified interval of time. This way, the program will do the job and you are not required to free up the RAM manually every time.

If you do not want to use any third-party application, then you may manually free up the RAM to fix the memory leak in Windows 11 or Windows 10.

Find the metho that I used to install Windows 11 on an 8 year old computer. Yes, you heard it right!

Windows 11 comes with a lot of new security options and features, and for the same reason, Windows 11 does not support a lot of hardware. For example, even if your computer runs Windows 10 perfectly, Windows 11 might not be compatible with your device. Of course, upgrading to Windows 11 is totally free, but various hardware restrictions make people unable to upgrade their operating system.

But don’t worry if you have unsupported PC hardware and want to install Windows 11 as we got you covered. This article will share a method that will help you bypass all Windows 11 hardware requirements and install Windows 11 on any computer.

Install Windows 11 on Unsupported Hardware

Just follow the step-by-step guide given below, and you are all good to go. Before jumping in, also make sure to read about the risks associated with the same as well. We have provided everything in detail below.

Is it possible to install Windows 11 on Unsupported PCs?

Yes, there indeed exists some sort of hardware requirements that might make your PC non-compatible. But this doesn’t mean there’s no way to install Windows 11 on older PCs and unsupported hardware. This includes both desktop and laptop.

Even Microsoft’s official website has a page dedicated to details about installing Windows 11 on devices that don’t meet minimum system requirements. As per Microsoft, there will be some compatibility issues if you try to install Windows 11 on unsupported PCs. But this doesn’t mean it will not work.

Some highlighted features like the new security options in Windows 11 wouldn’t be available to you.

Installing Windows 11 on a device that does not meet Windows 11 minimum system requirements is not recommended. If you choose to install Windows 11 on ineligible hardware, you should be comfortable assuming the risk of running into compatibility issues.

Your device might malfunction due to these compatibility or other issues. Devices that do not meet these system requirements will no longer be guaranteed to receive updates, including but not limited to security updates”, says Microsoft’s website.

How to install Windows 11 on an Unsupported PC?

While doing the research, I found tons of guides on the internet to install and use Windows 11 on unsupported PCs or older computers. But a majority of them were too complicated. Some of the guides include the need to edit the ISO file, registry entries, etc., which makes the process too hard. But guess what? We have an easy one-click solution for this problem, and that’s exactly what you will find below.

The guide given below must be the easiest method to install Windows 11 on an unsupported PC with no extra work.

First of all, we need to download the ISO file of Windows 11 from Microsoft’s official website.

Head over to this page to download Windows 11 ISO. Or you can follow our guide on downloading Windows 11 ISO file as well.

Scroll down a little bit and find the ‘Download Windows 11 Disk Image (ISO)‘ option.

Click on the Select Download dropdown menu. From here, select Windows 11 and click on the Download button.

Download Windows 11 ISO
Download Windows 11 ISO

It will now ask you to choose the product language. You can select any language of your choice. Click on the Confirm button.

Select the language
Select the language

A direct download link will appear and just click on the download link to download the latest version of the Windows 11 ISO file to your computer.

Download link for Windows 11
Download link for Windows 11

The ISO file size is somewhere around five and a half GB, so you might have to wait for some time until the download is complete.

Our next step is to download a program called Rufus. Rufus is a lightweight utility tool that will help you to create a bootable USB. The latest version of Rufus also comes with the option to install Windows 11 on unsupported hardware. We are using this option in Rufus to install Windows 11, bypassing all the hardware requirements.

Go to Rufus’ official website and download the portable version. (You are not required to install the portable version. Just download and double click on it to open without installing)

Download Rufus
Download Rufus

Connect the USB stick to your computer. Make sure it has a minimum capacity of 8GB.

Now open up Rufus software.

First of all, you need to select the USB Drive. Click on the Drive drop-down menu and select the USB drive you would like to burn Windows 11. If you only have one USB stick connected to your computer, then the same will be selected by default.

Select USB Drive
Select USB Drive

Next, under Boot Select, click on the SELECT button. Navigate and find the ISO file that we downloaded earlier.

Select Windows 11 ISO
Select Windows 11 ISO

Now here comes the most crucial part of all. Under the Image option, make sure to select ‘Extended Windows 11 Installation (no TPM/ no Secure Boot). This option does all the magic for us.

Extended Windows 11 Installation (no TPM/ no Secure Boot)
Extended Windows 11 Installation (no TPM/ no Secure Boot)

Depending on your computer’s BIOS mode, either select MBR or GPT.

If you have a very old BIOS version, make sure to enable the option ‘Add fixes for old BIOSes (extra partition, align, etc.)

Install Windows 11 on older PCs
Install Windows 11 on older PCs

Now click on the START button to start the process. Wait for some time till it burns the ISO file to the USB drive.

Once you are done with this part, next follow our guide on installing Windows 11 on any PC. From here, the steps are pretty much the same.

Once the installation is complete, Windows 11 will be up and running on your computer. But keep in mind that there might be some features missing, and some security updates might not hit your computer.

For some reason, if Rufus is not working for you, you may also use any other alternative. But the one-click installation won’t be available. In this case, you will have to manually edit the Windows 11 ISO file and make necessary changes.

Install Windows 11 on Older PCs

This is by far the easiest method to install Windows 11 on older or unsupported PCs. There are many methods to install Windows 11 on unsupported PCS, but this one is the easiest and best method out there. Other methods involve you editing the registry files and modifying the ISO file, which is pretty hectic.

About Windows 11

Windows 11 can be considered as one of the significant iterations of Windows of all time. There are tons of new features and visual changes that make Windows 11 utterly different from any other Windows version. One of the main features that everyone loves is the ability to install Android apps on Windows 11 natively.

Back in the day, with Windows 10, we were required to use an android emulator to install an Android app on Windows. But with the support for Windows Subsystem for Android in Windows 11, Google Play Store and Amazon App Store can be directly installed as an app on Windows 11. This means you can open the play store on Windows 11 and install any Android app of your choice, just like how you do it with your Android device.

Apart from the support for Android apps, windows 11 brings a host of visual changes as well. For example, the native right-click menu is now replaced with a more visually appealing one with icons and an excellent aesthetic feel.

Windows 11 also comes with some TPM requirements, making it not compatible with some computers. This means you cannot install Windows 11 on a lot of computers that support Windows 10. But don’t worry if you have an unsupported computer because many people have managed to bypass TPM requirements and get Windows 11 installed on unsupported PCs as well.

Set Windows 11 Wallpapers On Your Device

We have managed to extract these wallpapers from the preview build of Windows 11. Since this is directly taken from Windows 11 itself, it is of the maximum possible quality. If you are using any other versions of Windows or a completely different operating system and want to install Windows 11 wallpapers on your device, use the link given above to download the wallpaper pack, and you are good to go.

Are you looking for Windows 11 themes and skins to customize your Windows 11 PC appearance? There are tons of Windows 11 Skins that you can use to change the look and feel of your PC but finding a good one can be a challenging task.

This article is a compilation of the best Windows 11 Skin packs and themes from all over the Internet. Suppose you are looking to revamp the UI of Windows 11 completely, then this article is for you. For example, the macOS theme for Windows 11 will let you completely transform your Windows 11 UI to that of macOS.

Windows 11 Themes

Before Going In…

Applying a theme or skin pack will let you revamp entirely Windows 11. Installing a theme is not like setting a wallpaper or changing the accent color. While applying a theme, even the taskbar and other system-level UI changes. For the same reason, there are some risks associated with it.

For some reason, if something breaks, then we should have a backup to restore. So it is advised that you create a backup before proceeding further. In case if anything goes wrong, you can roll back to the backup and try a different theme or skin pack.

Also take a look at some cool Rainmeter and Rainmeter Visualizer skins to widgets and other elements to your desktop.

Best Windows 11 Skin Packs and Themes

The list below is arranged in no particular order. Go through every single one of them and find the one that suits your likings.

Microsoft Windows 11 Themes

Microsoft Themes for Windows 11

Did you know that Microsoft itself have quite a bunch of themes for Windows 11? The Desktop Themes collection includes a lot of themes for Windows 11 from different categories like Animals, Arts, Games, Movies, Natural Wonders, Places and Landscapes, etc.

There are hundreds of themes under each category, and this itself is a massive collection for Windows 11. If you are someone who changes the theme now and then, it will take at least a year for you to try all of them.

Just follow the link given below and expand a category of your choice. Here, you will find a bunch of themes and can be downloaded with a single click. Do note that you won’t be able to preview the theme before downloading. So, you will only get to know how the theme looks once after setting it up.

macOS Monterey Theme for Windows 11

Second on our list is the macOS Monterey skin pack for Windows 11. Being a macOS user, I know how cool is the UI and how easy it is to get things done. If you also love macOS and its user interface, then here is a Windows 11 theme based on macOS.

The entire look and feel of the theme are entirely similar to that of the newly introduced macOS Monterey. It all starts from the wallpaper itself. The theme comes with both light and dark editions of macOS Monterey wallpaper.

Be it the icons, File Explorer user interface or the dock to the bottom, everything looks the same. Just click on the link below to download the same and install it on a Windows 11-based PC. I’m sure you would love this theme if you are a fan of the macOS user interface. The team even comes with a launchpad that is very similar to macOS.

Ubuntu Theme for Win 11

Ubuntu Theme Pack
Ubuntu Theme Pack

If you are someone who is into Linux and Ubuntu, then this theme is for you. Once applied, the theme changes the entire UI of Windows 11 to that of Ubuntu. Be it the icons, the taskbar or the dock, pretty much everything changes and makes you feel like using a Ubuntu computer with Windows features.

The lite version of the theme is available for free. But it does not come with the option to change icons and other elements. If you want to get more customization abilities, you need to buy the premium pack, which will cost you a couple of dollars. This theme is also compatible with Windows 10 too. You can find more themes compatible with Windows 10 as well.

Ubuntu Skin Pack

Windows 20 SkinPack

Windows 20 Skin Pack
Windows 20 Skin Pack

How about going to the future and trying Windows 20 SkinPack? This is a Windows 20 concept based skin pack for Windows 11 laptops and PC. For me, it felt like a combination of Windows 11 and Windows 7. For example, the start menu is very similar to that of Windows 7.

When it comes to the taskbar, it feels it gets its inspiration from Windows 7, Windows 10 and Windows 11. The icons on the taskbar are arranged to the centre of the screen, while the Start menu icon comes to the extreme left.

Windows 20 SkinPack

watchOS SkinPack

watchOS Skin pack for Windows 11 gives Windows 11 an Apple Watch feel to it. All thanks to the custom made icons for Windows 11. The theme manages to provide a watchOS interface everywhere. Be it the icons on the dock, file explorer, or the launchpad, and everything looks exactly the same as Apple Watch.

The theme also borrows some macOS elements as well. So, in short, we can call this theme a combination of both watchOS and macOS user interface. The theme also brings widgets support to Windows 11.

This is a 3D wallpaper pack for Windows 11 that comes with 17 different wallpapers in HD quality. It contains a lot of 3D elements. You should get this wallpaper pack if you love to set wallpapers based on illusion factors, etc.

The wallpaper pack has almost all the colours in it and will be more than sufficient for you. You may also use these wallpaper packs with other themes and level the game too.

Forgotten Relics Wallpaper Pack

Forgotten Relics is yet another wallpaper pack with 19 different images of rusty planes, trains, and automobiles. This is not a fully-fledged theme or skinpack that changes the icons and taskbar. It’s just a wallpaper pack with some really cool images to set as your desktop background.

You can get this wallpaper pack from the Microsoft Store itself. This means you are not required to download anything from any third party websites.

If you don’t want to download any themes or wallpaper packs outside of the Microsoft Store, there is another wallpaper pack available freely on the Microsoft Store. This version of the wallpaper packs is available for all versions of Windows 11.

As the name suggests, the wallpaper pack contains fantastic images of mountains from different parts of the world. If you are a nature or mountain lover, then you will love this pack for sure.

How to Apply Themes on Windows 11?

Applying a theme on Windows 11 is super simple and easy. You can set your custom theme in less than a minute. If you are about to install a fully-fledged theme pack or skin pack, then you can directly open the installer and install the same.

But if you want to know how to set a wallpaper theme, follow the steps given below.

First of all, right-click anywhere on the screen and click on Personalize.

It will open the Personalization settings of Windows 11. From the options on the right side, click on Theme stop open it up.
