As I mentioned in the first post, I trien mounting the ISO
and running setup.exe. That didn't work, so I tried a USB stick
for good measure. It refused to do anything but a clean install
in both cases, so I suspect the 22H2 installer is refusing an
update because the systenm was originally Win7.

Apparently that's not the case. I've done this before, running
setup.exe from a mounted ISO, so I know how to do it. But this time
it doesn't give me the option of saving files. Only clean install.
That would likely mean needing a new license.
At any rate, I'm not uncertain about that part. I'm just curious
about what substantial difference there is between 20H2 and 22H2.
