Windows 10: Can't upgrade to windows 11 due not supported processor

Today I got a notification in my windows update that says my computer doesn't meet all requirements to upgrade to Windows 11.So I downloaded the PC Health application to find out the reason.As the figure below demonstrates, the cause is addressed to my processor, Intel i7 7700HQ, while the processor is mentioned in the supported processor list published on the site.So, how can I upgrade to Windows 11?

Win10 Pro Support for Intel Xeon Processors

I am about to build a new rig that includes the following hardware components:

• Intel Xeon E5-1650 v3 Haswell-EP 3.5GHz 6 x 256 KB L2 Cache 15MB L3 Cache LGA 2011-3 140W Server Processor

I have read that some processors will have a limited life support under Win10 rolling upgrades. Due to the robust architecture of this system, I cant seem to determine if:

• Windows will support this processor
• What the expected EoL for this processor support would be

Any help in determining if the hardware configuration component above is supported would be greatly appreciated.

Introducing Windows 11

Thanks--when I looked at the list the AMD CPUs hadn't been posted. At least some Athlons are on the list, which might make it simpler for you.

hmmm, my A10 Athlon isn't on the list so I'll have to upgrade processor and motherboard on two PC's. *Tongue
