Activate Windows 11 Pro free

An guide how to activate Windows 11 Pro for free

Why?

Because you will get some more features like an Bitlocker and host your device as an External Desktop which can be accessed through the internet

Am i also able to switch from any other edition to Pro?

The answer is yes! You can switch from almost any edition to Pro completely for free!

Note for users with unactivated Pro edition

People which already have Pro, but not activated, can skip to this step.

Getting started

What you first need to do is open CMD (Command Prompt) as Administrator using this keyboard key:

How to create a LUKS partition encrypted with Adiantum, ideal for low end and older devices/computers

How to create a LUKS partition encrypted with the Adiantum scheme

Important note

  • Sector size and key size are fixed, you cannot change them!
  • You can play with the hash but using less than sha256 is irresponsible!
  • You can convert an already existing luks2 partition with cryptsetup(8).

Very low end devices or computers (say, an old Pentium, Celeron, Raspberry Pi or older SoC)
