Your notebook does not meet any of Microsoft's minimum hardware requirements to run W11.

 

You would also have to buy a W10 license and product key in order to upgrade to W11 which would cost more than your notebook is worth.

 

There is a way to upgrade to W11 by using a W11 hardware check bypass trick, but your notebook would only be able to go as far as W11 23H2 because W11 24H2 won't work in a processor that does not support SSE4.2 and your notebook's processor only supports SSE2.

 

So, my advice to you would be to continue to use your notebook as is, or buy a new one.
