Windows 10: Migration from W10 to W11

If you do an image backup of your Win 10 computer using Win 7 Windows Backup do you think you could restore it on your brand new or refurbished W11 computer with most likely different hardware that that of your Win 10 computer?I remember Microsoft boasting when Win 10 came out that this was indeed possible, that on restore the HAL layer would have been miracoulously re-worked to fit the new hardware configuration.Suppose that was true, the migration path couldn't be easier! Backup old W10 computer, restore it on the new hardware, install W11 on top of it.Am I dreaming?

How to transfer W10 License to W11

I stupidly thought that if I was going to have a new PC, I might as well put W11 on it and, as I mentioned, having had problems which could not be solved with one PC when I upgraded from W7 to W10, I got afraid of having something similar happen when switching from W10 to W11, silly of me I guess, especially now that I find out that W11 is still half baked with (luckily until now) small problems that are more irritating than crimpling. I actually blew a couple of dollar on an additional 1TB SSD-M2 yesterday to do just what you suggest and I feel like a fool for buying W11.

How to transfer W10 License to W11

I have 2 W10 (originally W7) licenses. For a reason I'll explain further on, instead of upgrading W10 to W11, I decided to buy a new W11, install it on both computers and later perform (how?) the activation on the second computer by giving the old license. I hope it should work but how?

Why was I ready to buy a W11 license when I should have been able to upgrade both computers? Well, a few months after upgrading from W7 to W10, I had strange problems on one of my PC. W10 would give problems, only solution was going back to a previous W10 backup, then a week later the problem would reappear. I contacted Microsoft for help, even got to a human being and when he could not help anymore even to an expert, nothing doing. Finally I was fed up, cloned the C: disk of the PC that worked, stuck it in the PC that was giving problems, re-activated all software and never had a problem anymore.

I was afraid of getting into the same problem and decided to have a clean install of W11 and get the activation for the second PC from my W10 License, now How?
