hI I am still waitting for the upgrade to windows 11 despite this message from window upd:ate "Great news—your PC meets the minimum system requirements for Windows 11. Specific timing for when it will be offered can vary as we get it ready for you"
Is there anything i should do before i get the upgrade?
thanks
Chances are really good you have nothing to do but wait a little.
First off, you can upgrade right now if you want to.
Things to do before upgrade...
1. Make a full OS image backup of Windows 10
2. Get Windows 10 as clean and tight as possible before the upgrade.
From an elevated command prompt, run these two commands, one at a time...
sfc /scannow
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
3. Get all the Windows 10 updates
When completely updated, run this command from an elevated command prompt...
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
4. Remove, get rid of, uninstall, anything you don't need or want.
IF you want to upgrade right now....
Here is the short version of the In-place upgrade tutorial...
DISABLE non-Microsoft:
a) antivirus software
b) firewall software
c) drive encryption software
Make a full OS backup with a program like Macrium Reflect (free)
Macrium Software | Macrium Reflect Free
Go here and get the Windows 11 ISO (use the 3rd option), and save the ISO to your desktop.

Right click the ISO image and choose: MOUNT
Open File Explorer and you will see a new drive letter. It will look like a DVD optical drive.
Double click the new drive letter to open it.
Find setup.exe and double click it to start the in-place upgrade.
Choose the Keep personal files and apps option.
After it's all done... to UNmount the ISO image, right click the new drive letter and choose: EJECT.
The ONLY thing you will lose is some of your personalizations. Your programs and data will be intact.
This message means that, as with all roll outs of previous Windows 10 upgrades, Microsoft are taking a slow and measured approach to the roll out. Not every machine that's capable will see it offered immediately. In addition, MS may put temporary blocks on offering it to particular machines with known hardware or software issues, these blocks are lifted once a fix for the issues has been developed.

It is safest to wait until it is offered Windows Update, it may well appear in the next week or so. If you are impatient, then you could use the Installation Assistant or the Media Creation Tool to upgrade now. If you choose to do so, it is a wise precaution to make a system image of your Windows 10 with something like Macrium Reflect Free before doing so.

Thank you all i think getting it through windows update its easy for me. i have to wait for now.
Maybe not a whole year, but could be months.
Microsoft say that "We expect all eligible Windows 10 devices to be offered the upgrade to Windows 11 by mid-2022."
Is the computer the one on your hardware specs (i5+Z170MB)?
i5+Z170MB doesn't meed the minimum hardware specs for Win 11
No, this is my "clevo" laptop:
