Windows 10: Right Processor, Right Speed; Still Not Windows 11 Ready

Recently I acquired a HP EliteBook 850 G3. This is the only problem hindering a Windows 11 upgrade from the Windows 10 Home Edition 64-Bit it came with. The processor is IntelR CoreTM i7-6600U CPU @ 2.60GHz, which Microsoft lists as acceptable. However, the PC Health Check tool says that because of that processor it does not meet requirements for Windows 11. I am not looking for a hack. Would the need to update a driver cause the Health Check tool to come up with those results?

Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
What do you think?

 

Processor not compatible for Windows 11 Upgrade

If your processor is an 11th generation Intel then that is compatible. Is it listed on the approved list.
