Support i5 7400 CPU in Windows 11
Is there ever a plan to add support for the i5 7400 processor in Windows 11?
I am not eager to buy new hardware!
2 years ago, this processor was defined as not compatible with Windows11 - nothing has changed since then.
Unfortunately, we need to replace our computers by October 2025.
Best regards

I will install Fedora Linux after the end of WIndows 10 supportYes, I understand, but 99% of Windows users will be forced to buy a new computer for various reasons.
