Thanks, but I've reinstalled other versions of Windows several times in
the past. Screenshoting the desktop and several other things is
something I always do.

Yes, it most certainly is.

Rolling the dice yesterday, I connected my laptop (Windows 10 Home
edition) to the internet. I allowed the system to fully update and it
went smoothly. Even the hated KB5048652 update installed without any
problem. M$ tried to trick me into downgrading to W11, but I wasn't
buying that and I blasted past their attempt.

Normally, I keep my laptop air-gapped.

My ongoing attempt to install that miserable update on my desktop (this
computer I'm using to type this message) continues though. It's like
being in a rat's maze without an exit.
