For those still not upgraded..... here is the process that I followed.? 
It worked fine.

This puts a version of Win 11 called SERVER on your pc....practically 
speaking,? same as any other version ....

The problem this gets around:? When you test to see if WIn 11 can work 
with your computer, the test will tell you that your processor does not 
meet the requirements... it MUST BE a version 7 (?) or later..... but 
this server program never checks and so it works.....

Note that version 7 processors are in computers made about 5 or more 
years ago.....

This? is the methodology Microsoft itself recommends....
