i7-7700 CPU with 3.60 GHZ not supported??

I have i7-7700 CPU with 3.60 GHZ. PC Health Check app checks all the requirements as compatible, but fails with CPU not supported. Is this CPU number a miss from the list? I see many other i7 (7800X, 8700, 9700) as supported. Wondering why 7700 is left out from the list.

 

Intel Core i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz Processor

I am currently running Windows 10 Pro (Version 21H1) on my Alienware Aurora R6 Desktop PC. When I run the compatibility test, the PC meets all the requirements, except the processor (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz[Cores 4] [Logical processors 8]). The test indicates this process doesn't meet the requirements, yet this processor is listed on the approved list.

Windows 11 not compatable with i7-7700

I already reviewed the list of intel supported processors for Windows 11 and used the feedback hub.

I was just looking for information on why the i7-7700 CPU's are not compatible with Windows 11, or is it still being tested.
