Windows 11.
Hi Microsoft! I have CPU INTEL i9-9920X and CPU INTEL i9-9940X in my two desktops. Why my CPU are not considered available for windows 11? Thank you.

Thank you so much for your kind contribution. I am sure that MS will updated the official list of available CPU. I hope also the 7th generation. Thank you so much again and have a nice day. Luigi.

The reason these processors don't support as they stopped supporting 7th gen processors developed over 5 years ago. 7th gen isn't able to support as the core to threads count aren't to most standard C/T count from 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th gen Intel processors.
But said, that some Intel 7th Gen PCs "May Support" Win11 like the "Intel’s “Kaby Lake” 7th-gen chips from 2016 and AMD’s Ryzen 1000 processors from mid-2017." but its not set in stone.
All I can say is, if this list of the CPUs are not in the support sheet for win11, it not supported.
