I upgraded my acer nitro 5 from win 10 to win 11 because windows update stated that this pc met the requirements. 5 months later the pc did not want to boot after the latest 25 update. i slapped in a different hhd drive with win 11 and still did not want to boot. I installed a hdd drive with pre-installed linux mint xia. The pc booted immediately. I have been using Linux mint for about a year now and have it installed on 3 laptops. I swear by it. Thankyou Linux.
