I only had Windows 8 on a notebook that I bought and wanted to give it a try again, however I switched the machine over once I learned that it couldn’t be updated to 8.1 through normal updates, but that you had to use the store, because they were really trying to push the store. Also my NAS used NFS back then, which my home edition of Windows didn’t support, I think you need professional.
These two things pushed me to migrate the notebook as well
The best time to move to linux was 10 years ago. The second best time is now.
Does that mean I shouldn’t have switched in 2007 and instead waited eight more years?
But then I’d have had to use Windows 8
I had win 8.1 for a long while. It really wasn’t bad. Win 11 is what finally pushed me away from Windows.

I did both of those.
