Windows 10: Windows 11 upgrade compatibility.

When will the list of compatible Intel CPUs be updated to include the Intel i7 7700K CPU which exceeds all of the technical requirements for upgrade?

Upgrade to Windows 11

I want to upgrade my OS from Windows 10 to Windows 11. I have run the compatibility software and got the message that says my Windows 10 software is not compatible with upgrading to Windows 11. I'm looking for a point & click application that will make my Windows 10 OS upgradable to Windows 11 or a file that will provide step-by-step instructions on how to accomplish the upgrade to Windows 11. I expect a list of files/applications that will not run in Windows 11 because my PC is not capable of running the new applications w/o hardware upgrades.

 

Processor not compatible for Windows 11 Upgrade

Hello, My Dell Inspiron laptop meets all criteria listed in the website for Windows 11 upgrade. The processor (AMD Ryzen5 2500U) meets all criteria such as Processsor speed, number of cores etc meet reqd specs. Still the 'compatibility check tool has declared my PC not compatible for Win 11 upgrade citing processor incompatibility.. What could be the reason? Is there any solution to upgrade my PC to Windows 11 without changing the processor? Please guide.

 

Windows 11 Compatibility

I answered my own question by scanning further down the list where a limited number of processors are listed under Windows 11. The lists specify ALL Windows OS compatible processors by OS version, not just Windows 11, while I assumed the list was of the processors compatible with Win 11. Again, the processors are listed for all OS versions and there are only a few processors listed for Windows 11.
