    Hello,

    Kindly go through this official post which explains why processors before Intel 7th generation are not supported:

    Also drop your feedback to Microsoft using Feedback hub.

    Hope this helps!

    I observed number of complaints related to the Windows 11 requirements.
    In case you are running Windows 10, open the Feedback Hub app from the start menu and file a suggestion and request for this processor to become available.

    Hi @Rohan Patil

    You need a processor that must be in the 8th generation.
    Windows 11 devices must use modern device drivers which have passed the Windows Hardware Compatibility Program for Windows 11 or the latest available modern device drivers based on Declarative, Componentized, Hardware Support Apps (DCH) design principles.
