Definitely a good questions as changing to Windows 11 should not be done by the way. New Security Baselines and settings need to be implemented, end-users educated, applications tested and so on.

Sometimes you would like to install the upgrade, but Windows 11 is not shown in the Windows Update App. This can happen because of multiple reasons like incompatible hardware or the phased rollout of Microsoft. The simplest way to start the upgrade is with the upgrade assistant which can be downloaded from Microsoft.
