Upgrade to Windows 11

#1 Post by NickStone »

I heard yesterday that a new version of Windows was released.

I have been trying unsuccessfully to upgrade MX-19.4 to Windows 11.

I have been using

Code: Select all

sudo apt dist-upgrade
and

Code: Select all

sudo apt upgrade windows11
Has Windows 11 reached to repositories yet?

Only if they're the kind where you can toboggan down afterwards.
HP 15; ryzen 3 5300U APU; 500 Gb SSD; 8GB ram
HP 17; ryzen 3 3200; 500 GB SSD; 12 GB ram
Idea Center 3; 12 gen i5; 256 GB ssd;

In Linux, newer isn't always better. The best solution is the one that works.
