    Hi there,

    The selection of processor are made in accordance with many factors and the important one is DCH principle.
    https://learn.microsoft.com/pt-br/windows-hardware/drivers/install/overview-of-device-and-driver-installation

    Some 7th and all 8th generation processor are currently supported. It seems your processor is not listed in the supported processor list. Windows might test your processor and hopefully update the list.

    Me too.
    I have a Lenovo X260 with an Intel i5 6300U and I also can't upgrade to Windows 11.
    This is extremely annoying.
    Who's at fault... Intel or Microsoft?

    And this is why Apple is better on that way : in advance you'll know who is eligible for their upgrade or not, but Microsoft... You really need forums to tell you that you won't get the upgrade for no reason at all, knowing well that your machine is capable of running Win 11.

    i think it is better if they consider Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6300U CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.50 GHz to be consider on the list that supported by windows 11
