Your win 10 licence can be used with win 11. And you can install it on 
most machines that are not compatible, especially if they are 212 models 
or newer. You can make a usb install stick using rufus and it will 
bypass the windows compatibility problems.

Take a look at elevenforums. There are tons of tutorials and threads 
addressing this issue.
