Microsoft Windows 11

What, if any, are my options to upgrade my processor to be compatible with Windows 11?

 

MS Windows upgrade tool says my processor isnt compatible. Yes, I know I can upgrade to Win 11 anyway, but I have seen where the auto updates won't work, and probably wont get any support, as well as who knows what else won't work?

I bought this system specifically so I could upgrade it when the time came.  Well.. WIndows 11 comes, and guess what.  My processor isn't supported for upgrade to Win 11. What nonsense!

Current configuration:
