[QUOTE="Brahman, post: 990230, member: 11847"] It's not imperative to reinstall Linux Mint or any other distro, the upgrade command would work just fine, I am currently running Ubuntu 22.04, which I have upgraded from last 3 versions and it works fine. But my advice is to use timesift to backup your os and if incase something goes wrong you can restore a working copy in minutes. A complete reinstall is only recommended if the base of disto changes ie if the base changes from debian to arch, it's better to reinstall. [/QUOTE]
