Windows 11 Compatibility Message is not consistent with the PC Health Check

When I used PC Health App to check compatibility for Windows 11 on my ASUS ROG STRIX Z490-F Gaming MB, It indicates that I have full compatibility. However, when I go to SETTINGS>UPDATE & SECURITY I get the message This PC doesn't currently meet the minimum system requirements to run Windows 11. This is custom build gaming system with 64GB and Very fast Intel processor with all the gaming bells and whistles... What is the problem?

Hello FreedomWarrior,

Good day! I'm John and I'll be happy to assist you today. I know this has been difficult for you, Rest assured, I'm going to do my best to help you.

When you check your PC to see if it meets the hardware requirements for Windows 11 using the PC Health Check app, it provides real-time information compared to the Windows Update settings compatibility check which runs a scheduled task which will take time to show the actual result.

I recommend using the Windows 11 Installation assistant to upgrade to Windows 11 manually.

Note: It's always a good practice to backup your important files first before performing any Windows upgrade or reinstallation.
