Just a question, if you install the Windows 11 preview build and after a few days revert back to Windows 10, can you still get the same preview build from the Windows Update? And will it never appear again because of that change, or can you re-download it later once you switch back? I was thinking about keeping the cycle between Windows 11 and 10 until the system requirements for Intel 6th generation are met, and since we're discussing this now, I assume 6th gen will be compatible.

On the TPM, secure boot, and UEFI settings are all activated. The remaining aspect is the processor specifications, which I can't modify, but I believe the sixth generation will be compatible.

You have UP TO 10 days after going to Windows 11 in development build to return to Windows 10. Note: If you upgrade to Windows 11 and a few days later there is a new build, and Windows Update starts the update process, you will not be able to go back to Windows 10, despite being under the 10 days, as now it will revert to the previous Windows 11 build that you have instead. A new build is released each week, not a fixed scheduled. So, unless there is a delay in the next build, I should say, you have up to 7 days. If you really want your 10 days, you should wait for Windows 11 first beta release, as those are typically released each month. They are currently no beta releases of Windows 11 in the beta channel. They are, so far, only under the dev channel (weekly releases). Last build, at the moment of writing, was release Thursday, July 22. So, you have the weekend to decide. New build can be on Monday (not typical, but has happened, if I recall correctly), Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday (rarely I seen a release on Friday).

The release of Windows 11 beta in the beta channel is separate from your Windows version change. Switching back to Windows 10 won’t affect your ability to download Windows 11 beta again.

Ah ok, you are waiting for the beta channel. Yes. When you return to Windows 10, be sure to leave the Insider Program (else it will fetch Windows 11 again), and when ready to get Windows 11 beta again, just join back to the Insider Program, and you'll get the latest build of Windows 11.

Thanks! As for whether the 6th generation will be compatible, it depends on the context—please clarify your question so I can assist better.
