Wow, thanks! That does look promising (to me as a lay person anyway!), I’ll have to give it a try once I’ve sorted out that extra memory I’ve been meaning to buy since my backup space is running out, and I definitely want to make sure I have a solid back up before trying anything.
The last one about a backup is a great idea. Not because some receipt can be misleading, but because my 20y+ with Windows showed me it has some temper on it’s own and can kick back for no reason.
Better, fair, but is it possible to upgrade an existing install? 😬
I have a lot going on right now and convenience is priority over ideal if I’m honest…
The thrid one looks like a solid suggestion: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/544156/windows-10-pro-to-ltsc See if you trust it.

I wish you to get it right without a problem.
Oh yeah, I’ve had my fair share of disaster, backing up lesson learned the hard way lol
I’ll do my best to remember to update when I get around to trying the upgrade out. Thanks again!
