Will upgrading from Windows 10 to 11 delete my files and apps?

Upgrading from Windows 10 to 11 does not delete  files or apps if done properly, but there are some potential disadvantages and risks to be aware of:

Disadvantages and Risks:

1. Some older hardware or software may not be compatible with Windows 11, which could cause problems after the upgrade. While the upgrade process is designed to preserve your files and apps, there's always a small risk of data loss due to errors or interruptions during the upgrade. It's highly recommended to back up important files before proceeding.
2. Some apps may not work correctly after the upgrade, especially if they haven't been updated for Windows 11. In some cases, users report slower performance or bugs after upgrading, depending on hardware and drivers.
3. Windows 11 has stricter hardware requirements (like TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot), and if your device doesn’t meet these, you may not be able to upgrade without hardware modifications or may need to continue using Windows 10.

Upgrading Windows 10 to 11 does not delete  files or apps if done correctly, but backing up data beforehand is always the safest step. If you have concerns about compatibility or data safety, consider performing a clean install or consulting a professional.
