PC Healt Check app saying my processor is not supported when it is on the list of supported processors?

Question

Hi, why is it that Windows PCHealth Check is saying that my processor did not meet the system requirement to upgrade to Windows 11 when my processor is on the list of approved processors that meet the requirements? I have an AMD Ryzen 7 1700 and i saw it on the list of approved processors here:

Please help. Thank you.

Answer 2

Hello,

Unfortunately, AMD Ryzen 7 1700 processor is not compatible for Windows 11, according to Microsoft.

Please check with official Windows 11 list of supported processors:

You can drop a feedback to Microsoft about this, using Feedback hub app.

Answer 3

Hi ,

Thank you for your question.

Recently the integrity check application has been undergoing updates to further expand the number of devices compatible with windows 11. It is true that some of the processors considered old were not being recommended for using windows 11, however this has been changed every week after week, because the idea is to reach as many users as possible with windows 11.

So, you shouldn't worry, as much as it doesn't seem to be "compatible" now, it will soon be, with the windows 11 integrity updates.

Also, I recommend that you post your question on the windows 11 forum, because there you will be greeted by an engineer from the windows 11 team, who has more recent information to pass on to you, to do this just use the link below and select the top option called "Ask a question" and describe the entire problem, including images:
