If you’re one of the many users who want to upgrade to Windows 11 but aren’t eligible due to outdated hardware, then you might be familiar with a free tool called Flyby11. That nifty little app lets you bypass the hardware check and install Windows 11 on older Windows 10 PCs that are incompatible and unsupported.
As of this past weekend, Flyby11 now goes by a new name: Flyoobe (pronounced “fly-oh-bee”). Flyoobe contains everything that made Flyby11 great in the first place, but also introduces new features that expand its capabilities and allows you to customize the Windows “Out-of-Box Experience” (OOBE, hence the name).
Flyoobe is the smarter Windows OOBE
On August 9th, the developer announced on GitHub the official version 1.0 release of Flyoobe, which includes all the great features of Flyby11 but also adds more. If you only want to do what Flyby11 used to do, you can still do that and ignore all the extra stuff on the side.
According to the developer, Flyoobe lets you tweak numerous Windows 11 settings, pick and choose which bloatware to keep and exclude, optimize the user interface to your liking, run your own PowerShell scripts that automate some of the setup, and more.
The OOBE views in Flyoobe also run on a faster code base for a more responsive experience, and Microsoft Copilot integration has been improved for better overall reliability.
Getting started with Flyoobe
To use Flyoobe, go to the GitHub releases page and download the latest version. As of this writing, that page has two download options: Flyoobe 1.0 (if you want all the OOBE tweaks) and Flyby11 3.0 (if you only want a clean upgrade from Windows 10 without all the OOBE tweaks).
In the future, Flyby11 will be discontinued and Flyoobe will be the only available download. Get it now if you prefer this version.
