    Trying to load Windows 11 onto a 2017 MBP. Can't find a list of compatible machines on the Parallels website. Microsoft updater says it isn't... Can someone here confirm that is actually the case? I'm seeing considerably slower processors on their list of approved intel chips

    So long as you remember to add the TPM module in setup using Parallels 17 or use Parallels 18 (which comes with a Win11 VM), then IDK why it wouldn't work. I'm running it just fine without hacks on the 2019 MBP. I didn't want to install my v17 license on my 2012 MBP or I'd test that too. I Can say that I've hack installed Win11 on my 3770k based PC (no TPM) and it runs fine on raw hardware.
