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

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.

    Is this a bug, why wouldn't this processor be supported, on Microsoft's own hardware??

    Windows 10 is supported until 2025.

    Hopefully this is a joke.

    Windows' flagship machine, one of the most expensive consumer machines ever sold, can't be upgraded to the latest version of the operating system, despite being under three years old.

    If it's not a joke, then Microsoft Surface is and it's time people knew.

    Fix it please. Or there'll be trouble.
