Yesterday Microsoft announced the expansion of the list of processors compatible with Windows 11 – AMD Ryzen of the first generation and Intel Core of the sixth and seventh generations were added to it. It would seem that you just need to download the ISO image, install the system using it, and you can enjoy the work of the latest OS as on most modern PCs. However, there is in this ointment and a fly in the ointment, which Microsoft itself mixed in. It turns out older PCs won’t get updates.
Judging by what the source writes, Windows 11 installed via an ISO image on (conditionally) old PCs will not be updated at all: it will not automatically receive updates on Tuesdays, and even critical vulnerability patches will not be released. Users will also have to install drivers on their own. And if users can live without some functional innovations, then rejection of critical security fixes looks very strange, because earlier the company released them even for OS, the support of which has long ceased …
It is possible that the announcement of a complete rejection of Windows 11 updates on “old” PCs is just a measure of pressure on users to update their PCs. Or, perhaps, this is just a reinsurance measure that will avoid potential legal problems in the future. At the moment, Microsoft does not provide any clarification on this matter: perhaps the situation will become clearer closer to the official launch of Windows 11. It will take place in October or November.
