Hi:

 

If you are interested in upgrading your PC to W11, please see the method I have used to in-place upgrade several HP and Dell notebook and desktop PC's to W11 22H2 that don't meet the hardware requirements.

If the in-place upgrade doesn't work for some reason, you can always clean install W11 with the installation media you made with Rufus.

What’s Rufus and how do I go about that?

I explained it in the discussion I posted, and provided a zip file download for the Rufus version you need to install to create the bootable installation media and a screenshot for how to set up Rufus.

 

The latest version of Rufus removed the W11 hardware check bypass feature so you have to use version 3.18.
