I have an Alienware x15 R2 gaming laptop, and I'm trying to update to Windows 11, but I'm running into an issue. It keeps telling me, 'This PC doesn't currently meet Windows 11 system requirements' and gives me the error message: 'We couldn't update the system reserved partition.' I have no idea what that means and would really appreciate any help!

If you're still having trouble, Microsoft has a guide on this specific error that might help. You can check it out [here](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/-we-couldn-t-update-system-reserved-partition-error-installing-windows-10-46865f3f-37bb-4c51-c69f-07271b6672ac) for additional troubleshooting steps.
I've encountered a similar issue before, and in my case, the fix was to mount the system reserved partition and clear out the contents of the fonts folder. It helps free up space in that partition, which is often the problem. You can find detailed instructions on how to do that in this [link](https://superuser.com/questions/1863462/windows-11-pro-24h2-update-we-couldnt-update-the-system-reserved-partition). Let me know if you need any help with that!
Have you checked if TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is enabled in your BIOS? Sometimes that’s the key requirement that’s getting overlooked. You might have to jump into the BIOS settings to confirm it's active.
