.NET 5 compatibility with Windows Embedded and IoT

Hello,
I am a developer and my product has currently been converted from .NET Framework 4.8 to .NET5. I haven't been able yet to test it on Windows IoT and Embedded versions and I've been trying to find compatibility information but it seems to me this information is not public yet. Can someone please send me the list of compabible/non-compatible OS versions vs .NET5 please? Where can I find that information?

Some OS I would like to double check compatiblity (below). Even if some of them are not fully compatible, are there any KBs to install to make it compatible? Please advise.

Windows 11 IoT Enterprise
Windows 10 IoT Enterprise
Windows Embedded Pro
Windows Embedded Compact
Windows Embedded 8
Windows Embedded 7

note: net 5.0 support ends in a couple months, 5/8/2022, so any current projects should use .net 6.0

https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/6.0/supported-os.md

switching to .net core for out of support systems is probably a bad idea. .net 5 and .net depend on particular services patches to work.

Thanks for the replies.
I've found more information, but stil, it is very hard to find Windows Embedded / Windows IoT compatibility information

Incomplete Info:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/windows?tabs=net50#supported-releases
https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/5.0/5.0-supported-os.md

the trick is to check the windows service pack version of your IOT o/s.

windows 7 based IOT need to be at SP1 or later.
windows 8 based IOT need to be based on 8.1 or later.
windows 10 based need to at sp 1607 or later
windows 11 based IOT need to be at sp 22000 or later
