Preparing for Windows 11 upgrade

My PC is capable of running Windows 11 and I am getting the usual Microsoft prompts to do so.
Prior to upgrading I am giving it a good tidy up and ensuring everything is backed up.
I was wondering what will happen to the MSOffice Professional 2016 that I use - can anyone advise if this will continue to work.
Thank you

Upgrades can and do go wrong, make sure you have a full backup of the whole PC before upgrading. I use Acronis True Image, but there are free alternatives.Only this weekend my laptop fouled up with a Window 11 Pro 24H2 update... really annoying, but as I had a backup it was only a few minutes work to restore it (around 10 minutes).1

I run Office 2010 and have just upgraded to W11. I backed everything up before doing so and no problems. As my friendly computer Repair shop said that it obviously had to do so. In my case I was checking due to my clients having versions and it was essntial they all worked.When I bought my current laptop I had a problem as Office 2010 and 365 clashed. removed 365 and all was OK.1
