VTune does not run, --platform-type not set, sep dumps with no output

I have a new machine (Dell Precision 7960 Rack), Windows 11, and am not able to run a VTune analysis.

Performance Snapshot won't run at all with the error "This analysis type is not applicable to the system because VTune Profiler cannot recognize the processor."

Hotspots looks like it runs, but it collects no data. There is an error on startup about the '--platform-type' option. I tracked down the file runss.options, which has the option not set:

...

--interval=10
--platform-type
--app-working-dir=D:\build\Release

...

When I attempt to run 'sep -version' from an administrator command line, I get no output, but do get a new sep.exe.####.dmp file.

Could you provide the Windows build number, some latest builds are not supported currently.

This is one known issue, which will be fixed in future releases. As you know, the Windows 11 version updates frequently, and there is latency for driver support.
