Per title… I’ve been pushing the “upgrade” from Win 10 out 11 for at least a few more years to “hopefully never.” Last night I was installing TurboTax 2025 and it only works with Win 11. I absolutely need TTax to work.
I typically do a clean install for a new OS but the laptop related to the TurboTax install is for business only. If this was one of my gaming rigs, I’d do a fresh install (not just update from 10 to 11). In most cases from what I’ve seen and read, Win 11 is loaded with more telemetry and annoyances than Win 10…
So… What can I expect if I update vs install clean. Are my files at more risk? Will the performance be worse? Can I revert? I was almost thinking of installing a clean version of TTax with Win 11 using its own partition. Thoughts? What would you do?
