[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 884008, member: 37647"] I already updated my virtual machine (by joining Insiders) and it looks good. However, virtual machines usually update more smoothly, because less hardware issues. A virtual machine doesn't talk directly to the hardware. It lets the host machine do that. I recently cloned my 1903 installation from an i5 6th-gen machine to a new i7 9th-gen machine. No particular issues. A couple weeks ago, I cloned from an i3 5th-gen dell laptop to an i5 10th-gen ASUS laptop. It needed some drivers, but now it is zipping along without issues. I avoid reinstallions when I can, because for me they entail many hours of work, until everything is set up the way I like. If necessary, I restore an old system image, rather than reinstalling.
