I’ve bought a W11 machine, but it is only an N100, and my old i7 running W10 is much snappier. I’ve been saving up Microsoft Rewards points, so I can exchange some of them for an extra year of free security updates on the i7 machine. 

Xenon

I would recommend Linux - pretty easy to install & update and if just general web browsing,banking etc the easy choice.

Linux Mint would be the go to Linux Distro for Linux beginners

No need to upgrade or buy anything.

I know quite a few people here rave about Linux.

I've tried out Mint & Zorin in VMs so my next comment isn't on the back of not having at least tried it...

I'd much rather Windows.
