Passing incompatible CPU's

[djice00]

It is passing several incompatible CPU's. i.e. Intel Core i5-1035G7, Intel Core i7-4600U and Intel Core i5-7300U. I am not sure what I would need to modify in the script to eliminate those CPU's from being counted as compatible.

The script is pulling the CPU list of Intel devices from here which does not appear to be open to changes from the public.

We might be able to add filters script side to accommodate for that limitation.

What brought you to the conclusion that these CPUs are not compatible with Windows 11? It would be nice to know since Microsoft seems to insist they'll work in their docs.

If you search the list those CPU’s are not on it. There are no CPU’s before 8th gen anywhere on that list.

Correction to last post the Intel Core i5-1035G7 is on the list but the other 2 are not.

It looks like AMD and Intel both had a processor with 4600U, with the AMD being compatible. I was only looking at the model, not the brand which seems to be the issue. I think I have a fix but don't have any of the processors listed available to test. Could I have you replace lines 8-20 in Win11Compatablilty.ps1 with the following and see if you still are getting a false compatible? If this fixes it for you, I will push the new version to the repo.

###Import approved Processor list
$final = Import-Csv "C:\temp\proc.csv" | ForEach-Object {
    [PSCustomObject]@{
        'Brand' = $_.Brand -replace "\?\?\?","(TM)" -replace "\?\?","(R)"
        'Model' = $_.Model
    }
}
###Get Procossor
$proc =  Get-CimInstance -class CIM_Processor | Select-Object Name
$ProcCompatible = $false
###Compare processor to approved list
foreach($cpu in $final){
   
    if($proc3 -like "*" + $cpu.Brand + "*" + $cpu.Model + "*"){
        $ProcCompatible = $true
        break
    }
}

The i7-4600U, i5-6300U and i5-7300U are still showing up in the compatible list. Now the i5-8500T, i5-8350U, i5-8365U, W-2255, i5-1145G7 and i5-10310U are failing the check, but are all in the Microsoft Compatibility list. I can manually ween them out when using the original script, just by putting in a Not Any filter since there are only 3 CPU's. But if you want me to test script changes for you I am game, scans do take some time as we have over 3000 devices. I don't get why the 6300U or 7300U keep passing as they are not found in AMD, Intel or Qualcomm's lists.
