How to bypass or fix the processor isn't currently supported for Windows 11

If you see the error “This processor isn’t currently supported for Windows 11”, it means your CPU is not on Microsoft’s official supported list. There are two main ways to proceed:

1. Official method (recommended)

• Microsoft only guarantees Windows 11 support for listed CPUs.
• If your processor is unsupported, the safe option is to keep using Windows 10 (supported until October 2025) or upgrade your hardware to a supported CPU.
  
  

2. Bypass the check (at your own risk)

You can install Windows 11 on unsupported hardware by modifying the setup process:

• Download the Windows 11 ISO from Microsoft.
  
  
• During setup, when the CPU check blocks installation, press Shift + F10 to open Command Prompt.
  
  
• Open Registry Editor (regedit) and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup

• Create a new DWORD (32-bit) value named:

AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU

and set its value to 1.

• Close and restart the installation.

This bypass allows installation, but note: Microsoft does not guarantee updates or stability on unsupported CPUs.
