Windows 10: PC running Windows 11 professional happily but won’t update as hardware incompatible!

I bought a refurbished Windows PC 6 months ago running Windows Professional 11. Now it says the version has reached the end of its life and I should update. However it won’t let me and the Health Check says my hardware is incompatible with Windows 11. I’m baffled as Windows 11 is running happily on “incompatible “ hardware! Is there a way to continue to update Windows 11 please
