Over the weekend I thought for the heck of it to check whether my computer is Windows 11 compatible. I remembered that for Windows 7 and Windows 8 and 10 Microsoft had an app called the "PC Health Check" one could use to check the computer specs against the Windows specs.
So I find it quite interesting. Microsoft did have this app for Windows 11, however removed it as it apparently wants to modify the app. So who knows, maybe Microsoft has had its ear to the ground with all the moans and groans. So is in the process of changing the minimum specs.
Here is an article about the removal of the PC Health Check from the Microsoft's Windows 11 info page:

It’s led to people with PCs and laptops that should be more than capable of running Windows 11 instead being told that their machines are not compatible. Even worse, the app was not giving enough details about why the PCs were deemed incompatible with Windows 11.
This has dampened many people’s excitement about Windows 11, and now Microsoft has ‘temporarily’ removed the app, and will release it again later this year.
