i wanted to change to windows 11, but when I ran the health check. It said my CPU wasn't suitable. I needed at least 2GHZ to run it. I have the Intel i7-6700 @3.40GHz so I should have double the requirements ??? Any ideas why Microsoft failed it ???

Your processor is not supported by Microsoft for windows 11.

However, you can still upgrade to W11 as directed here with the registry hack:
