I ran the MS test to see if my computer was MS 11 upgradeable. The only issue was my processor. I looked on the support processor list for MS11 and it shows my processor is good for the upgrade. Wondering what is the real issue. Computer and operating system info below. Thank you!

Hi:
Your PC's i7-6700K is not on the list of W11-supported processors.
Windows processor requirements Windows 11 supported Intel processors | Microsoft Docs
If you are interested, you can bypass the W11 hardware checks and install W110.
I found that this method is the easiest way to do that.
