What's the best method for backing up and restoring a system without the full OS
A few weeks ago, I purchased a new laptop computer. I've installed all my apps and transferred data from an old failing computer. It has also been upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 (this was a free upgrade).
Now I've run into a problem and have been working with the manufacturer's tech support. They are telling me to send it in for repair and will issue an RMA. I am also within the vendor's 30-day return period. So I can either wait for the repair, which may take 30-60 days. Or return to my vendor and get a new replacement within 10 days. The second option seems more appealing to me.
However, if I decide to replace my laptop with a new one, the new laptop will come with Windows 10. Is there a way to backup the original laptop and restore the replacement laptop with Windows 11? Or, will I need to just backup the apps and data and then upgrade the replacement to Windows 11 before I restore?
