    I have a Dell Optiplex 5090 sff pc and I’m experiencing issues with Microsoft Windows OS 11 version. My current configuration only has a 7200rpm HDD 3.5 of 2TB. I’m having frequent issues with Windows OS. Issue 1:Every time there is an update or the system is rebooted after an update or just a normal reboot, I have to wait for 45 minutes to 2 hours for the disk usage to go down from 100% for me to use my system.Issue 2: "Sometimes Windows boots up and shows no login screen. I can only move my mouse. I used to just wait for an hour and if it is still the same, I disconnect my PC. Now when I sta

  2. Free upgrade from Windows 11 Home to 11 Pro using 10 Pro retail license

    My current computer has an activated Windows 10 Pro retail license. I'm planning to replace my current computer by buying a new computer that comes preinstalled with Windows 11 Home, and then I understand I can use my 10 Pro license to upgrade to 11 Pro for free.

    What's the most straightforward way of accomplishing this? The obvious approach that comes to mind involves two steps:

    1. Reinstall Windows 10 Pro on new computer and activate with my existing retail license.
    2. Upgrade new computer to 11 Pro for free through the settings.
    Is there a simpler way of doing this without having to reinstall Windows 10? For example, would it be possible to somehow "trade in" my Windows 10 Pro license for 11 Pro? I'm fairly new to Windows licensing and am just trying to understand what is possible/best practice, with minimal effort.

  3. Reinstalling windows 10 to a new SSD without losing your licence?

    Hi, I just purchased a new SSD which I'd like to replace with my old hard drive. I'd like to reinstall my windows 10 on the new SSD. My windows is licensed and I don't wanna lose that. I don't have a product key for my
    windows, it says that it's a digital license. How do I reinstall my windows to my new SSD, I'd like to use my current old hard drive as a secondary drive. What are the steps and how do I keep my windows licensed? Do I need to create an image of my windows
    somehow and then reinstall it? Will I still have the option "Reset this PC" ? I really like to have this option as it's very easy and fast to reset my windows to factory if it's working slow or have a virus. Is my licensed windows somehow connected to my microsoft
    account so if it doesn't activate or something happens you can see that I have a licensed windows and activate it for me? Thanks!
