Although, my laptop is not compatible for Windows 11, the only thing stopping me is my PC processor not meet for requirements. I think that the processor should not be included in requirement but I do agree on the other PC requirements. Since DDR4 PCs are made with Windows 10 based that includes UEFI, TPM, and 4GB at least should be able to upgrade. Many can't keep spending and taken advantage of with strict requirements.

Yes I do understand that DDR3 PC are not compatible.

    I advise you to open the Feedback Hub app in Windows 10 and create a new suggestion and share your feedback.

    Hi @Pierre N

    Windows 11 which it’s largely sticking to a restriction to install the OS will only be enforced when you try to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 through Windows Update. This means anyone with a PC with an older CPU that doesn’t officially pass the upgrade test can still go ahead and download an ISO file of Windows 11 and install the OS manually.

    But you cannot get the updates via clean install on PC without requirement.
