Installing Windows on a Raspberry Pi @Raspberry_Pi #PiDay #RaspberryPi
Officially, Windows is not supported by the Raspberry Pi team. You won’t be able to rely on the support of the Raspberry Pi team when installing the venerable operating system on your Raspberry Pi. But you can do it. Here’s an approach to installing Windows on a Raspberry Pi, from PyMyLIfeUp:
The two most annoying parts missing from Windows support on a Raspberry Pi are support for the built-in ethernet or Wi-Fi modules. To get networking on Windows, you will need to use a USB to Ethernet cable.
Additionally, if you are running a Raspberry Pi 5 2GB or 16GB board, this guide will not work. Changes to the firmware on these devices broke the custom UEFI firmware that Windows on Raspberry relied on. Luckily, there is still support for the existing 4GB and 8GB models of the Raspberry Pi 5.
