Windows 11 upgrade issues

I only use my desktop during the first part of every year. I missed the windows 10 end of security updates. I am trying to download TurboTax but my computer states that my system does not meet requirements for Windows 11. My system does indeed meet the requirements, but I can't upgrade to windows 11. Is this due to me missing the deadline to upgrade last October? How can I upgrade to Windows 11?

    I currently have Windows 10. My computer states I don't meet the requirements, but I have more than enough of what it needs.

    Sorry? What? What system do you have?

    Your second sentence implies - You use WIN10.

    My system does indeed meet the requirements - 

    Why are you so sure that your requirements are suitable?

     

    The so called 'deadline' exists now for more than 8y....
