Microsoft accidentally released Windows 11 for unsupported devices

Microsoft, which received serious criticism by leaving millions of computers behind with the hardware requirements of Windows 11, announced that it would support the Windows 10 operating system for a while. Still, many users find alternative ways to install Windows 11 on their unsupported computers, but these ways do not provide enough ease of use. Windows 11, which usually runs on 8th Gen Intel Coffee Lake and Zen 2 processors and later, was accidentally released for unsupported computers.

Microsoft error Microsoft is aware and doing the necessary research
