PC has a listed acceptable CPU, but installer rejects it

Question

I have a laptop pc with a processor that is listed as acceptable for Windows 11.

List:[Intel® Core™ i7-7500U].Mine: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.90 GHz

I was about to just skip it- I downloaded the ISO and fixed the registry. But when it was about to install, I got the warning that I wouldn't be eligible for support or updates. Well, I'm not concerned about MS support, I've never gotten any. But I do like to keep my computer updated.

Any suggestions?
