Re: OT - change to Windows 11

Thankyou for all of the advice.
Just one more question (I think) before deciding whether or not to take the plunge.
My system disk is partitioned as System Reserved just under 500Mb and C: which fills the rest of the 500 Gb SSD.
The partition setup for Windows 11 is of course different to that for 10.
If I change from 10 to 11 through the Microsoft Update service, will the update automatically create the
new partition setup for me, or do I have to do that manually before the update?
TIA
