Claton Hendricks presents himself to the camera while introducing the new color palettes and the design of the Task Manager that will be available in the near future. “Intel Core i7-7660U” detail reflected. This processor, released in 2017, is not listed in the “Supported CPUs” section of Microsoft’s Windows 11 system requirements page.
Hardware-based security technology TPM encrypts a lot of data, including user information, and keeps it in its memory. Microsoft decided to make TPM 2.0 mandatory in line with the importance it attaches to security in Windows 11. Even the leaked ISO file before the operating system was officially introduced did not allow installation without this feature.
Although it is possible to install Windows 11 on a computer whose system requirements are not met, through Upgrading, Microsoft warns that it does not accept responsibility in case of potential problems.
Not only to warn, but very soon a desktop watermark will appear in the lower right corner on a computer that does not officially support Windows 11.
