Photoshop V26 Not Compatible [Missing AVX2]

I saw the captioned update in the creative cloud but it comes with "Not Compatible". New release of Bridge is also not compatible.

My config is:

Win 10 Home

16GB Ram

i7-3770K CPU

Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB

 

I have just renewed my subscription and have never read any news about hardware requirement changes.

Any input?

That CPU is WAY too old to be supported by Windows 11.

Me too no AVX2 on my otherwise capable machine.

No photoshop updates for me anymore. No advanced Firefly updates.

Are there any ways around it, besides investing thousands of euros and many days of setting up a new OS?

Will Lightroom be the next not to update? Can I get my money back?

Your computer also will not be compatible with Windows 11, and Windows 10 support ends in a year. Time to think about a newer computer.

Seems I could get a slower less potent processor that supports AVX2:

Probably powersupply and case too, and why bother with old SATA devices when there are faster new options available, old PCI cards? Probably not much luck on newer mainboards, so hopefully there are USB replacments.

@josantgomez AVX2 is related to the CPU and not the GPU
