Win 10 2004 + Lynnfield processor compatibility

I'm currently using Player 12.5.9 on Windows 10 1909, using a Core I7 860 processor (Lynnfield).

Cannot update Player to later versions due to processor incompatibility (at least Westmere micro-architecture required on 13..15).

In the process of updating Windows 10 to 2004 version the installer asks me to uninstall Player.

Do you know if is possible to use Player v12.x on Windows 10 2004?

I don't want to finish the update and then find out that I can't reinstall Player.

Thanks in advance.

Only Player 15.5.5 and 15.5.6 are supported on Windows 10 2004.
