Your CPU is supported for Windows 10 however, it is not supported for the Windows 11.
You may find list of supported Intel processors for the Windows 11 on:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-supported-intel-processors
As you can see, your CPU is not listed and therefore it is not supported.
Win11 not accepting my Intel® Core™ i7-6700HQ processor, which is on the approved CPU list. why?
