The Windows update compatibility check runs a scheduled task that runs periodically compared to PC Health Check App which shows information in real-time. So, if you turned on a requirement like TPM recently, the status in Windows update would take a while to change, so give it a day or two. If you cannot wait, update manually using the steps below:

Check Windows 11 compatibility

Download Windows 11

Use the Installation Assistant to Download Windows 11

Alternatively, download an ISO file and Run Setup.exe to Start the Upgrade, using Windows 11 Media Creation Tool.

All steps, including MCT and Installation Assistant, are covered here:

    I'd cut the sarcasm were I in your position.

    If you think people who have invested a small fortune in hinged, flat, touch-screen desktop computing are happy to see their investment ignored in this way, you are mistaken.

    Even if what you are saying is that Windows 10 will be maintained on a parallel development path (until 2025—then what??) that means that some catastrophically stupid decisions have been made and the interests of the users of your most expensive desktop hardware have been disregarded.

    Influencers, and I am one, in a small way, should and will put an immediate block on recommending Microsoft Surface anything to anyone until this is sorted.

    Try and get a handle on what you have done wrong and stop talking down to us.

    The processor is incompatible for Win11. You may have referred to the support article which is incomplete and inaccurate. The details provided by PC Health Checker is right.
