up grade processor

[pvar46]

Would like to know which processor I need to get to be able to run windows 11?

I have a HP 17-ar050wm with a AMD Quad-CoreA10-9620P

Thanks

Hi:

There aren't any motherboards for your notebook's model series that support a W11-capable processor.

HP Pavilion 17 Laptop PC (model numbers 17-ar001 through 17-ar099) Maintenance and Service GuideIMPO...

If you want to force the upgrade to W11, it is pretty easy to do so...

I would make a system image of your current W10 installation prior to updating to W11, so you can easily reinstall W10 in the future.  I used the free Macrium Reflect software to do that, under the Backup at Home section.

Macrium Software | Reflect Free Edition

First make this registry change...

Then download the Windows 11 ISO file (3rd option), not the W11 installation assistant.

Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)

Then open the file with Windows explorer, and click on the setup application.

To do that, right click on the ISO file and select 'Open With' and select Windows Explorer.

See the screenshot...this is what you will see when you open the file with Windows Explorer.

After you double click to run the setup application, you will get this window, and you can now upgrade to W11.

You just have to accept the agreement that comes up during the upgrade process about your PC not meeting the requirements, etc., etc..

My unsupported W11 PC's got all of the W11 updates. 

However, I don't know how long that will continue, or what will happen when the new build of W11 comes out next year in October.
