Thankyou for your reply.
My system disk has only 2 partitions, one of just under 500 Mb and the remaining 465.35 Gb of the disk
occupied with the o/s, 24% free space. Most programs, data etc are on my D, E or G (USB) drive.
According to Microsoft PCHealthCheck my PC meets all of the requirements for Windows 11
with the exception of Secure Boot. This of course I can set up in BIOS. 
SInce my PC will then meet all of the Win 11 requirements I thought I could then do an 'in-place'
change through the normal Microsoft Windows Update service. After cloning the system disk to
another disk naturally.
I can convert to GPT with AOEMI Partition Assistant.
Will the Microsoft Update change the partition setup on my system disk for me ?
Should I approach Microsoft with the question ?
