Unable to install Windows 11 on Dell Vostro 5481 after updating the BIOS
Vostro 5481
After applying the latest BIOS update to this system. The system says it unable to install Windows 11 due to some issues.
I have tried with Windows 11 installation assistant as my system is not showing Windows 11 update in Windows updates section.

What "issues" are reported?
You must be set for UEFI BIOS (not Legacy) and the system drive formatted GPT.
TPM must be enabled in the BIOS.

Sir,
In November 2021, I guess Dell Vostro 5481 received an Windows 11 update through Windows update but the users of this laptop faced black screen issue after upgrading to Windows 11 through Windows update. So Dell decided to stop the Windows 11 update for this model. After that on 25 July 2022, this model received an BIOS update for this model but still the issue is there as according to the "Windows 11 update assistant".
And answer to the questions as follows:
TPM enabled in BIOS and the partition table is GPT.

Where did you get that Dell stopped Win 11 update? The updates come from Microsoft, not Dell.

I did try to install Win 11 on Vostro 5481, hence was facing the black screen problem, with no solution available, had to go back to Win10. As this is some time ago, is this problem now solved?
