You have two options:

 

Below is the link to the product specs for your PC:

 

HP Pavilion 690-0020 Gaming Desktop PC Product Specifications | HP® Support

 

You can remove the AMD Ryzen5-2400G processor and install the AMD Ryzen7-2700 processor which is on Microsoft's list of supported W11 processors;

 

Windows processor requirements Windows 11 supported AMD processors | Microsoft Learn

 

You can upgrade to W11 by using a method to bypass the hardware checks which find the unsupported processor.

 

If you are interested in installing W11 on your PC as is, you can read this discussion for how I upgraded several HP and Dell notebook and desktop PC's that did not meet the W11 hardware requirements to W11 22H2.

 

You have to use the version of the Rufus utility that I zipped up and attached in the discussion (v3.18).

If the in-place upgrade fails, you should be able to clean install W11 using the bootable W11 installation flash drive you made with Rufus.
