Back up your data, check the application compatibility table, click here, and if your Mac mini is recent enough, then on the download link for a higher OS. The one you found is an updater and can't be used for a full-version upgrade.

Catalina and higher won't run 32-bit software; if you upgrade to one of them, use Go64 as well.
