1. Check Minimum System Requirements

The minimum system requirements to run Windows 11 are pretty low, meaning you do not need a powerful PC to run Windows 11. In my honest opinion, a potato PC can also run Windows 11.
If your PC does not have enough horsepower to run Windows 11, I would suggest you upgrade your system as it is most probably very outdated by now.

Here are the minimum System requirements for Windows:

|---|---|
| RAM | 4 gigabyte (GB) |

| Graphics card | Compatible with DirectX 12 or later with WDDM 2.0 driver. |
| Display | High definition (720p) display that is greater than 9” diagonally, 8 bits per color channel. |
If your PC meets the minimum system requirements to run Windows 11, please follow the other methods given in this post.
2. Switch to TPM 2.0
Intel processors before the 8th generation does not support TPM (Trusted platform module) because the motherboards that support these processors do not have support for TPM 2.0.
You can still check for exceptions by searching for them on your internet browser like Chrome.
Check whether your motherboard supports TPM 2.0 and turn it on.
To turn on TPM 2.0, you need to go to the BIOS settings to turn it on. As each motherboard manufacturers have different BIOS firmware and different ways of entering the BIOS menu, you need to check how you can access the BIOS menu for your specific motherboard.
You will find countless tutorials on Youtube for your motherboard, so you can access the BIOS menu easily by following them.
Ensure to enter the correct manufacturer name and model number for your motherboard when you are searching for the steps on how to access the BIOS menu.
For example, my motherboard is the Gigabyte h110m DSV 2.0, so I would search for something like “How to access Bios menu Gigabyte h110m dsv 20” and follow the tutorials.
If you have enabled TPM 2.0 but the installation error 800f0830 is not fixed on your Windows 11 system, please follow the other methods given in this post.

3. Enable Secure Boot
Just like the previous method, you also need to enable secure boot for many functionalities to work properly on Windows 11. You need to access the BIOS menu of your motherboard and turn on the Secure boot option.
For Windows 11, it is mandatory to enable TPM 2.0 and Secure boot to play some popular games like Valorant. So, you should keep it on regardless of whether there is an error or not.
You can find it in the Bios menu somewhere around the TPM option mentioned in the previous method. As different manufacturers have different BIOS firmware, entering the BIOS differs from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Entering the BIOS menu of a Gigabyte motherboard will be different from an ASUS motherboard, so you need to search for the procedure for your motherboard manufacturer and model.
Fo me, I need to search for how to enter the BIOS menu for the Gigabyte H110 M DSV 2.0 motherboard, where Gigabyte is the name of the manufacturer followed by the model number.
After enabling Secure boot, make sure to check whether the installation error 800f0830 still occurs on your Windows 11 system or not.
If the error did not get fixed after turning on TPM 2.0 and secure boot, please follow the other procedures given in this post.

You have to select the option of creating installation media when downloading the Windows 11 files from the official website.
