Will my data be erased if I install windows 11 from insider program
I want to install windows 11 from insider program. Will my data from local disks and my apps and all the other stuff will be deleted?

Hi, TechnicalBoy
The answer is No, but it is still recommended to backup your files just in case your files have been lost.
If you passed the minimum requirements on your device to update your Windows 10 to Windows 11, you can proceed without any problem. If not, you can still stay on Windows 10 if you want. They will still provide security updates but take note that Windows 10 will end of support on October 14, 2025.
I hope it may helps.
Thanks!

Is it ok if I store my files as a backup in onedrive? Will I get it back from onedrive once I move to windows 11?

Make sure you completely upload data and then visit OneDrive on web using browser and verify all data are there and after upgrade if you recommend to the OneDrive you may download them.
