Compatability for Windows 11

Hello Davidrankin19,
I am Jaspreet Singh an independent advisor.
I7-5600U is not supported for windows 11 compatibility. Here are the list of all the supported processors : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardwa...

I7 8th gen or higher is needed (with a couple of 7th gen).

It’s all in the hands of Microsoft..

See i7-7820hq is an 7th gen processor but still it supports windows 11.

Microsoft is like a kamchoor they don’t want work to develop modern DCH driver to surfaces pro 5.

Intel is providing windows 11 compatible DCH drivers to 7th and 6th gen processors too but as an OEM Microsoft is not working on it.

Now they don’t want to work after they looses Markect share like windows phone, then there will be no work to do.

"The Surface Pro 5 meets all the minimum requirements from a performance and functionality standpoint, but its Intel Kaby Lake processor (7th gen) is not on the list of supported processors (8th gen and above)."

Strange thing is... I just went through the most recent cpu list and the I5-7300U was listed.
