Despite Microsoft's warning
Table of contents:
The arrival of Windows 11 has caused a huge tidal wave, especially due to the demanding requirements that, on paper, would leave many devices unable to update. Installing Windows 11, however, would not be impossible on unsupported computers and Microsoft knowingly announced that they would not receive updates when installing Windows 11, something that apparently is not being fulfilled
Microsoft had warned that all unsupported devices that upgraded to Windows 11 would not receive new updates through Windows Update once Windows 11 had been officially released.Windows 11 arrived on October 5th and just yesterday it received its first Patch Tuesday… a patch that even unsupported computers received
Patch Tuesday for everyone

This is what they say at HTNovo, where they have tried installing Windows 11 on a PC that did not meet Microsoft's minimum criteria and that in theory should not receive operating system updates. This in theory, because in practice they affirm that yesterday they received the corresponding October Patch Tuesday
In fact they claim that a Windows 11 computer was updated a few hours ago with all packages made available by Microsoft These patches included a new build with fixes and .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8 along with the usual monthly malware removal tool.
These updates have downloaded and installed as if it were compatible equipment and according to what they say, the system works perfectly without any type of failure or limitation.
Microsoft claimed at the time reliability reasons, but also security and compatibility why these computers would no longer have updates. In fact, on the Microsoft page they make it clear that these computers will not be able to receive future versions of Windows 11 and will have to update through ISO in a clean way.
Apparently, Microsoft for now is not applying the limitations of which it had warned We will have to see if this changes in the future or If, on the contrary, it is not easy for Microsoft to control the computers that can receive the updates that they are releasing.
