Probably due to your motherboard not supporting some TPM requirement.
Just use windows 10

Rules (interactive)

That's it.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

TPM is required for Windows 11 and your CPU is too old.
Basically…. It’s old and they don’t want to support the architecture.
At least that’s the answer MS will give.
The reality is there’s nothing wrong with it, it’s more powerful than most lower end laptops and could run win 11 just fine except they want to sell you new hardware.
Microsoft only supports Intel processors in the ranges where Intel still supports the processors.
While they still work Intel no longer offers support for the 7th gen and back, so Microsoft writes them off rather than borrowing trouble.
You can install Win 11 anyway following one of many guides on the internet.
You also can try Linux. It is great.
Bro your CPU is almost a decade old. I get that you're annoyed but c'mon
an I have a 10 y/o cpu or two, and I can run windows, iOS about 10 linux vm's and lxc's and a shitload of docker containers, home automation, NAS and firewall all on it. MS just needs to get over it's self sometimes
If your motherboard has TPM 1.2, you can go for it it works fine for me and that's more resources than most current entry level hardware in mini PC
4th gen is very old, so windows being really bloated and inefficient probably cut support for it.
Try linux if you are interested. The day to day performance is actually really good (except gaming ofc)
The gaming performance is mostly really good as well. Some windows-only games even run better on Linux (some also won't run at all ofc)
it's good, but not perfect. KSP through proton works perfectly though, so I don't mind
It won't let me upgrade to win11 on my macbook either :(
That would definitely be an upgrade for you.
Not sure if it would make much difference compared to win10 and it is just for gaming.
