You need Lightroom Classic 12.0 or later.

Or you can use the free Adobe DNG Converter and convert the RAWs to DNG and then import them into your older version of LrC.

From which type of camera are the cr3 files?

Here you can check which LR vwersion is necessary to support your RAW files: Cameras supported by Camera Raw (adobe.com)

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 6 - Topaz Photo AI

As you can see in the linked document you need Lightroom 12 or higher to support the RAW files from the R6 Mark II.

Alternatively, you can also use the Adobe DNG Converter to convert the CR3 files into DNG which can be managed in LR 11
