There is no such thing.   Either the processor is supported by W11, or it is not.   Yours is not.

Hello vkumar18


Thank you for posting on the Intel️® communities. As the SuperUser mentioned, you need to contact Microsoft* to confirm OS compatibility. Please keep in mind that this thread will no longer be monitored by Intel. Thank you for your understanding.
