    Will an in-place upgrade 20H2 remove Win32 apps?


    Hi, my computer has been acting up recently and I'd like to perfom an in-place upgrade, but I've heard that from 20H2 you will not be able to keep any apps. Is this true?

    :)

    In-place upgrade - XP to 10 without losing the apps


    Wolfgang, you need at least two steps (Vista & Seven) between XP and 10, the Eight can be bypassed:
    • XP can only be in-place upgraded to Vista, not Seven or later
    • Vista can be in-place upgraded to Seven but not Eight or later
    • Seven can be in-place upgraded to 10
    • Ergo: XP to Vista is a must, as well as Vista to Seven but then you can bypass the Eight and jump to 10

    20H2 In-place upgrade cant keep personal settings and files on 20H2 clean install

    When trying in-place upgrade on a clean windows 10 pro 64 install I cant keep personal settings and files, only option is to keep nothing.

    It says maybe my windows is installed in different folder / older version of windows.

    - The same again on a second fresh installation of windows 20h2 on my system.

    - Both on SATA drive and on new clean NvMe in RAID 0 config.

    - Reseting bios does not help

    - sfc, dism, - no change

    - windows is installed in default folder

    - everything was/is on default

    - never had this issues prior to 20H2

    - I use latest 20H2 iso version, downloaded multiple times with same results

    Asus rog strix X570-e, ryzen 3600xt, 2xnvme ssd in raid 0, 32 gb ram 3600 mhz, gtx 1080, 2xsata ssd, current build 19042.610
