I recommend placing everything you need in the cloud and doing a clean start for the new machine.
Read up on secure boot and TPM before you install, and keep the old device nearby to troubleshoot.
Security has changed a lot in the last decade and it's in your interest to set it up properly from the start.
When I tried to install my new system without secure boot, I couldn't get HDMI output to work with my integrated GPU, because it doesn't run without secure boot. Who expects that?
Took me a couple of days to get everything installed, and Hyper-V working properly, mostly reading up with the current day definition of "good" security setiings and VT-d,x stuff.

I succeeded in keeping the "same" PC without fresh install from windows XP (to W11), due to similar considerations as you. Of course, nothing remained exactly the same, including MB. I did have to buy a new license for W7, but not afterwards, even after changing the MB, cpu and system disk. This may not be possible with an OEM license, not sure.
I haven't documented my steps, am sure I had some headaches, but issues got solved, so try approaching this as an adventure.
Some have advised to use VM's for old software, but I fail to see how this would help in your situation.
Disk cloning I did with Acronis, though I changed to Macrium because my older Acronis installation was about impossible to deinstall, which I wanted to do because its drivers blocked core isolation security.
(backup software tends to have a lot of drivers)
Such issues tend to take quite a bit of time (not being a sysadmin myself).
And issues with your W10 installation will hopefully be removed by the W11 install, but I am not sure about the MS store and (not getting) updates part.

Do you have to buy a license for Win11? My understanding is a Win10 key will unlock it.
I have to agree with others that moving your existing installation to new hardware and then upgrading to Win11 may not solve your problems. But having old software for which you may not have the installers is a Catch-22.
My solution is to do all the suggestions. Install a clean copy of Win11 on the new HD and install all the applications that you can.
Create a virtual PC and clone your Win10 hard drive into it. This way you have a clean install for (hopefully) most of your applications while preserving the ones you don't have installers for.
However, before doing anything, there are things you can do to remove junk from your system:
- Uninstall any programs you're not using.
- Run Microsoft's Disk Cleanup utility to remove junk from your system. If you haven't been doing this, you may have many GB's of Windows updates hanging around.
- Run Defragment and Optimize Drives to clean up issues.
Disk Cleanup Utility clears Temp folders, which can make a huge difference. A while ago I helped a friend with an older PC. His Windows/Temp folder had 50,000+ items in it -- deleting everything not in use made a huge improvement.

Sounds like you're over complicating things.
Buy a external USB hard-drive. Backup what you need to it.
Then either build a new computer (do not destroy your old one).
Then transfer what you need from your backup drive to your new computer after its working.
Or just re-install Windows 10 on your old one from a clean USB drive (as it probably fixes your issues).
Then restore stuff from your USB backup drive

I revive these "old" systems all the time.
Keep it simple and let the software do the work.
Run virus/malware check on entire system - in Safe Mode, if possible.
Defrag any HDD's.
Then Run DISM to fix Windows Component Store and then SFC to fix Windows System Files. Look up for details. Both of these from the CMD prompt.
If you are not familiar with the cmd prompt there are several well established, safe freeware programs to do all this for you. As they are all freeware no one should object to me posting them.  Before doing all this, as always do a complete image backup of your system drive.
* Tweaking.com - Windows Repair v4.13.1 (fixes just about everything
* WinaeroTweaker v1.52 (for settings)
* WagnardSoft Tools v1.0.2.4 will do just DISM and SFC from its "Repair" Scan and Repair selection
* Update all drivers - this can do wonders. Video drivers are notorious and may need complete removal. Check in Device Manager for any yellow exclaimation marks on any device drivers. Uninstalling them there and and rebooting sometimes is enough.
* Once all running smoothly run Windows Update.
You may have to reset some of your favourite setting after using the above.

Thank you, I wish I'd read that earlier. I fell into the trap of reinstalling Windows using their "keep all your files and apps" option. It erased all my apps and kindly left me an html file listing all 608 applications it deleted. It even deleted Office including my .pst files. I hate MS.

Sorry to hear that. Did you not have a full backup backup backup backup - did I say it enough?
|

Yes, I have a back up, done with Acronis, to a NAS. The trouble is that I have had to reinstall Acronis and my licence details are in an email in a deleted .pst file..... Without a licence Acronis is being picky about adding the existing backup to its list.
If I survive this then I might delete Acronis and simply have a physical copy of my system on the NAS and, nightly, copy over all files changed within the last 25 hours, using robocopy.

You should be able to get that from the Acronis web site. But you should be able to just boot Acronis from a USB drive - you do have that right? or DVD if you have one.
When you do get it back up and running I am curious how you found my solutions.

Thank you, I'll let you know. However I suspect that by the time this is untangled it will be a very different computer with another set of problems. I've bought a new case, MB, Power supply, M2 SSD, etc and plan on cloning to that when I've retrieved as much as I can from the present system.

Well, I'm back up and running and have upgraded to Win 11, so all my problems disappeared. That means I am unable to comment on your suggestions, but thanks anyway.

I recall the story of a newbie radio announcer scheduled to play that track. He was terrified that he'd mispronounce "Rimsky-Korsakoff" so practiced for a week until it rolled off his tongue.
Come the fateful moment, and he introduced
Rimsky-Korsakoff's well known piece, "The Bite of the Flumble Bee."

Even with our typing speeds, we introduce so many bugs. Just imagine how much more are likely to be introduced by such a fast typer 
Can we say that "The slower the coder in typing, the better the code"?

We had a physics problem, 50 years ago, applying the uncertainty principle to the question of how quickly could a tuba player change notes. Ans: about 2 times/second at the low end.
Can anyone check this on the video?

Hi everyone, Im tryingto to list the data coming from the mongo db in a file handlebars. But the problem is that when I load the screen, only the message "Category Listing" appears and the names of the categories do not appear as requested:
{{#each erros}}
{{texto}}
{{else}}
{{/each}}
To create the modell and the collection, I used:
var conexao = require("../config/conexao")
var CategoriaSchema = conexao.Schema({
nome:{
type: String,
require: true
},
slug:{
type: String,
require: true
},
date:{
type: Date,
default: Date.now()
}
})
module.exports = conexao.model("Categorias", CategoriaSchema)
And in the main file, to render the handlebars file, I used:
const express = require("express");
const handlebars = require("express-handlebars");
const app = express();
const Handlebars = require('handlebars')
const Categorias = require("./models/Categoria")
app.get("/", (req, res) =>{
Categorias.find().then((categorias) =>{
res.render("listaCategorias", {categorias: Categorias})
}).catch((erro) => {
(colsole.log(erro))
res.redirect("/cadastrar")
})
})
Can anybody help me?

No. This area isn't for technical queries, as it says at the top of the page.

This would be a database question and there is a database forum.
Use code tags when you post code and anything else that should be formatted.
