WMR hardware and software requirements
This section discusses hardware compatibilities and software requirements for using Windows Mixed Reality devices and applications.
Checking compatibility
You can use Microsoft’s Mixed Reality PC Check app to see if your PC is ready to run Windows Mixed Reality applications. The check tests your system and reports back on whether or not your PC meets the requirements.
After the check is complete, the results window displays one of the following result messages:
| Compatibility check result | Description |
|---|---|
| You’re good to go | Your PC matches the requirements needed to run Windows Mixed Reality |
| You’re nearly there | Some functions might be limited, but Windows Mixed Reality applications can run |
| Can’t Run Mixed Reality | Your PC doesn’t meet the requirements needed to run Windows Mixed Reality |
The results window also displays a green tick beside any of your PC components or drivers that meet Microsoft’s minimum requirements. It also displays a red ‘X’ beside the components on your PC that do not meet minimum requirements. The following image below illustrates this:
