What are the full specs of this system?I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, but I got the notice today that my old pc can't upgrade to Windows 11. Are there discussions about this that I can try to figure out what to do?
Thanks.
I’d continue to use Windows 10 and just see what happens as the end-of-support date approaches. There’s still over a year of support remaining, as of today.I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, but I got the notice today that my old pc can't upgrade to Windows 11.

Official Win 11 supports starts at 8th Gen for Intel CPUs.It's mostly what is in my signature still. It's an old build. I'd love to build a new one, but I don't have the funding right now. Don't anticipate I will before next October. Is it the CPU that is the hold up for the TPM 2.0 hurdle?
Thanks.
Yes. Except for a few rare exceptions, Win11 needs Intel 8th Gen and higher.Is it the CPU that is the hold up
Signature is still accurate except for some added m.2 drives for more storage space.What are the full specs of this system?
Make/model of everything.
That's kind of what I was worried was the case. I don't know anything about Linux. A new computer won't be an option. And offline doesn't work. I'm trying to picture what I would use a computer for offline only.I’d continue to use Windows 10 and just see what happens as the end-of-support date approaches.

Who knows, maybe something might change with Microsoft at the 11th hour.
In terms of options: replace Win10 with Linux, get a new computer, or only use the computer offline.
There’s a hacky way to install Win11 on unsupported machines using Rufus. Up to you if you want to take that risk.
