The computer is on Dell's list of computers being tested for Windows 11 compatibility, and Dell will , in all likelihood, provide Windows 11 drivers for the computer.

Microsoft's updated "PC Health Check" currently available to Insiders, to be released to the public shortly indicates that the computer is eligible for upgrade to Windows I have no idea what this all means. We both own computers on the list Microsoft provided to you, and you provided to us. Neither computer has a processor that is on Microsoft's compatibility list, neither is on the list of computers that Dell intends to support for Windows 11, and one my Latitude got bounced from the Windows 11 Insider program a few days ago because it was not eligible for the upgrade.

The list you provided seems to be in conflict with Microsoft's list of supported processors, Dell's list of computers being tested for Windows 11 compatibility, and Microsoft's upgraded PC Health Check. Go figure. Microsoft's PC Health Check will be released to the public soon. When it is released, you can download the tool and run the check on your computer. That should give you a definitive answer for the October 5 release, although Microsoft might continue to add processors to the list of compatible processors in the future.

Yup, I missed it, although the fact that Dell is testing the computer doesn't mean that the computer will make the Windows 11 cut:. If your device is not listed below, Dell is not testing the device and drivers will not be upgraded for that model.

I'm not sure what Dell means by "will be tested for upgrade to Windows 11 once that operating system releases ". The Dell article was released July 21, at a point where Microsoft was saying the 7th Gen processors were being tested as part of the Insider program, and Microsoft's testing process looks like it has come to an end -- See " Update on Windows 11 minimum system requirements and the PC Health Check app " released August 27 , which says this:.

It all depends on Microsoft's future decisions about 7th Gen processors, I guess. Based on the linked article from Microsoft, though, I doubt that the situation will change before October 5. If you have a definitive answer to your question, why ask the question?

It seems to me that you are wasting your time and mine. This forum is for Microsoft Edge, not Windows As an alternative to running around chasing your own tail, you can wait and see what Microsoft does when it does whatever it does.

Although Microsoft often changes course in unexpected ways, current Microsoft documents see above comments support your supposition that " it seems like they are not going to add any CPUs in coming days", so I think you can take that option off the table.

At present, Microsoft supports a few 7th Gen X-series processors for Windows Microsoft might expand support to more 7th Gen processors in the future, but it might not because there are significant security differences related to the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities, among other things between 7th Gen and 8th Gen and subsequent. The architecture differences between the generations seems to be what is driving the line drawn between 7th Gen and 8th Gen.

You will not find an answer in this forum, because this forum addresses Microsoft Edge issues, not Windows issues. I suggested earlier that you might find better information in the Windows 11 community forum but I doubt it. I did a search within that forum this morning and found no information of any value.
