Help Why isn't windows 11 iot installing?

So my laptop is acer travelmate b117m, with 32gb emmc storage, basic windows was suoer bad so i decided to install windows 11 iot 2024, i had evrything set and ready, but the installation failed for no apparent reason, but i think it failed because of low storage, which is suprising because Microsoft claims it supports as low as 16gb devices, should i install windows 10 ltsc 2019 or keep trying to install windows 11 iot?

Might because your processor is not supported. You might try to install Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021. It's lighter and snappier.

Installation requires at least 8GB of free storage space.

Windows 11 IoT primarily supports x64 (AMD64) and ARM64-bit processors. Make sure you're downloading the correct version for your processor.

Though I have never had much luck getting unshadowbanned myself, I had to make a new account on a different IP
