Can I install windows 11 official after joining windows 11 insider dev channel

Copper Contributor

Hello, I joined the Windows 11 insider program dev channel 1 month ago, and I didn't backup my files so I can't make recovery and reinstall Windows 10. Can I update later from Windows 11 insider to windows 11 official without data loss?

Hi to install the official release of Windows11 - if you are in the Dev. channel it is necessary to have a clean installation of Windows10, there is an option to keep my personal files, but all applications must be reinstalled , but it is worth making a copy of the files on an external drive.

Of course you have to unregister
