windows 11 cpu support

Hi, Watsondedh!

Windows 11 currently supports these Intel(R) processors. According to your current CPU model - Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6200U which is not listed here so, your processor might not be able to run Windows 11. You should consider upgrading to a newer system or replacing your CPU with one of these latest generation of Intel(R) processors. Thank you!

You can check this list for Windows 11 supported processors:
