  1. My computer's CPU shows on the approved list for Win11 Upgrade but PC Health Checker says...


    When I run the PC Health Checker to see if my Win10 computer is compatible for upgrade to 11, the status comes back with the message that my CPU is not supported. If I then go to the list of supported CPUs, my CPU IS listed on the list of approved/supported CPUs. What is causing this? Can I upgrade with this scenario?

  2. Windows 11 Upgrade - PC Heath Check says no to the processor but my processor is listed on the approved CPU list?

    Microsoft Community,

    Afternoon and Happy Fri-YAY!

    Had a question on trying to upgrade a Windows 10 All In One PC to Windows 11. PC Health Check says "The processor isn't currently supported for Windows 11." then it lists my processor as Intel Core i7-7700T CPU @ 2.90GHz. I checked in About Your PC and confirmed my processor is the i7-7700T listed by PC Health Check.

    Initially disappointed I checked further at the Microsoft website and my processor is listed on the approved list. So I got a little excited.

    Can anyone shed any light on this? Is this a question of a bad approved list or the PC Health Check incorrectly determining my processor does not qualify?

    Here are all the stats on this computer.

    Device Specifications:

    Device - HP-Envy All-In-One

    Processor - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 2.90GHz

    Installed RAM - 16.0GB

    System Type - 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

    Windows Specifications:

    Edition - Windows 10 Home

    Version - 22H2

    Installed on - 09/11/2020

    OS Build - 19045.4651

    Experience - Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19060.1000.0

    Thank you in advance for the help. My fingers crossed there will be a "Meh.. Don't worry about PC Health Check. Push forward and install Windows 11 Pro" consensus haha.

    Thank you for the help and information everyone!

    My CPU is on the list of approved processors for Windows 11 but PC Health Check says it's not compatible. Why is this not working?

    I have an AMD Ryzen 3 2200G with Radeon Vega Graphics CPU. It's on the list of approved processors for Windows 11. PC Health Check says it's not compatible. What do I do? I'd like to update to Windows11.

    My PC meets all the other requirements.

    Thanks!
