PME Installation Error on Windows 11 Home

[chama07]

Hello,

I am trying to install Power Monitoring Expert (PME) on my Windows 11 Home PC, but I keep encountering the following error message during installation:

"Your operating system does not meet the minimum requirements for this product. Please validate that your Operating system version, architecture, edition, and service pack meet the documented requirement. The installation will now exit."

System Details:

• Operating System: Windows 11 Home
• SQL Server Version 2022
• Other Relevant Software Installed .NET Framework

Steps I Have Tried:

1. Checked system requirements for PME but couldn’t find clear details about Windows 11 Home compatibility.
2. Ensured that IIS and .NET Framework are installed.
3. Tried running the installer in compatibility mode.
4. Attempted reinstalling SQL Server to see if that helps, but no success.

My Questions:

1. Does PME support Windows 11 Home, or do I need to upgrade to Windows 11 Pro?
2. Are there any specific workarounds to bypass this issue?
3. Which exact system requirements must be met for PME to install successfully?

Any guidance from the community would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
