Hi:

 

The processor is an integral part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded without replacing the motherboard with one that may have W11 processor support.

 

Maintenance and Service Guide HP 15 Laptop PC

 

I'd buy a new notebook before doing that, because the cost to upgrade the motherboard would be about as much.

 

If you want to try out W11 on your PC as it is, let me know, and I will give you a link for instructions to easily bypass the W11 hardware checks so you can upgrade to W11.
