I cynically suspect Microsoft is looking to significantly reduce its hardware support footprint by 2026 as well as help its OEM partners (and by extension hardware manufacturers) move more product.Īround three months ago, I enabled memory integrity (via Windows Security > Device Security > Core isolation) as well as Microsoft Defender Application Guard (via Windows Features) in Windows 10 on an with an i7-6700HQ processor, and despite the couple of horror stories I've seen repeatedly cited on the Internet of people having their performance tank by 45% when virtualization-based security (VBS) is enabled on pre-MBE Intel processors, I have not encountered a crippling performance impact in my day-to-day laptop usage. Considering that many computers thus won't have HVCI enabled, one has to question why Microsoft is being so rigid with its processor requirements for Windows 11, unless Microsoft already has plans for making HVCI nonoptional in a future Windows 11 update. However, several articles I read stated that HVCI isn't enabled by default unless Windows 11 came preloaded by an OEM, and the majority of those articles also suggested disabling HVCI if you use your computer for gaming, due to a performance hit. In so far as I am aware, the sole reason Skylake chips aren't supported for Windows 11 is that they use less efficient Restricted User Mode emulation instead of MBE for Hypervisor-Protected Code Integrity (HVCI). While it won't change the fact that sixth generation Intel processors lack Mode-based Execute (MBE) Control and therefore are unsupported by Microsoft for use with Windows 11, you can at least update the XPS 15 9550's TPM from 1.2 to 2.0.
