    @EddieL If Microsoft ends up enforcing the processor list then the situation will become similar to Windows Vista. Windows 11 will just become a repeat of Windows Vista with majority of users sticking to Windows 10.

    I am on a i5-6200U and in no way I am upgrading. Modern laptops in my budget don't come with a CD/DVD drive

    Says my process is not supported.

    Have a sixth generation Intel i7-6700 which I verified is listed as one of the processors Win11 does support.

    TPM is turned on in the bios and shows as ver 2.0 in device manager

    24GB of Ram

    Nvidia 1070 graphics card

    Over 70% free space with 1TB Sony 970 EVO plus

    The developer has not added CPU compatibility support, hence the question. It shows the same for me too(Core i5-10210U)
