Have you installed Windows 11 on a computer that does not officially meet the system requirements? Soon you will get constant reminders about it.
Microsoft has previously announced that the system will display a “watermark” on the desktop and a warning in Settings on these machines, and these are now included in the latest beta versions of Windows 11 build 22000.588.

When Microsoft added the ability to circumvent certain system requirements, the company warned that users who use the feature do so at their own risk and that it can not guarantee future updates (including security updates). In the fall, Microsoft began kicking users out of the Windows Insider program if they install the trial versions on hardware that does not meet system requirements.
Unlike Windows other watermark, the one that points out that you have not activated a license, it does not look like the new watermark comes with any functional limitations.
