What percentage of windows machines are even considered compatible with Win11?

My desktop gaming system wasn't, which surprised me. It is fairly new and has lots of resources.

That's why I asked. There's tons of hardware out there that's works fine but doesn't have TPM2.0. Replacing every windows machine with new hardware would be an environmental disaster, not to mention the expense or supply issues it would create.

Upgrading hardware for software requirements is understandable for performance reasons, but doing so because of a security feature of no practical benefit for the average user is absurd.
