    Why are Windows 11 upgrade requirements so stringent and Explorer Stripped Down?


    I am currently using Windows 10 version 22H2 Home version. I have an excellent Gigabytes Motherboard GA H170-D3HP that includes an Intel I7 6700 3.4GHZ processor that according to requirements for Windows 11 does not qualify. The motherboard does include a TPM header where for $50 one is able to upgrade from TPM 1.2 to TPM 2.0 using a 20 pin connector model Gigabyte GC-TPM2.0 Module. From what I understand despite the ability to upgrade with this TPM 2.0 header upgrade module this motherboard would still fall short of the stringent requirements to upgrade from Windows 10 Home to Window
