    Regarding question #1:

    Please download SetupDiag and run it. The tool collects the setup logs and saves them into a zip file named Logs.zip on your desktop. Upload the file to your OneDrive, Dropbox, or any other cloud hosting account and share the link here.

    An in-place upgrade can't be done by booting from the setup disk. Booting from the USB setup disk offers only Clean installation and Custom installation options.

    Logs.zip contains the setup logs. It does reveal your username, system configuration, etc. No other private info should be present.

    SetupDiag works on Windows 11 as well. If it doesn't work, upload the following log to OneDrive and share the link here.
