PC Doesn't Meet Windows 11 System Requirement - i7 6700HQ
Hi team, I just want to provide a feedback about the disappointment that my computer cannot be upgraded to Windows 11. I've been a big fan and supporter of Microsoft in the past 14 years ever since ...

I strongly suggest add intel 7th gen CPU into the supported list. My laptop is running really well even for development purposes and there is really no strong reason for me to buy a new laptop to get Windows 11.

tangr2035 I agree 7th gen CPU should be supported for Windows 11. I too have a 4 year old Dell XPS 15 9550 with an i7-6700HQ. CPU. The system is running perfectly and had a high spec when bought. I cannot afford to buy a new laptop just to to get Windows 11. Systems of this spec and age should not have built in obsolesce in such a short timeframe. A more sustainable approach to Windows 11 development please Microsoft would be appreciated.
