Time for a new computer, save yourself the aggravation.

Last time I upgraded, my system crashed. I had to end up going out and get a new computer.

To keep it simple buy a new laptop or pc. There are videos on youtube which can show you workarounds and your options. But if you use your PC on a daily basis and are an active user. Just buy a new machine. I have been using Windows 11 for 2 years and never had any issues. PC are relatively cheap. Buy from Best Buy or Amazon is the way to go. It needed i can help you chose a new PC. Costco has good values. If you are not using a Windows Specific program. you could even make the move to a Mac Laptop. The learning curve for Mac is very easy.

Good Luck

Don

Don and north.. gave you good advice. Bite the bullet and buy a new computer.
Afterwards, try something new and turn your old computer into a Linux system.

Some people insist on continuing with W10. This guy offers advice to those in that group: youtube.com
