Your easiest way is to upgrade windows normally and if you dislike all it’s bloated software, just install Atlas OS on top of it. It’s just a software that will go through your windows and debloat it as much as possible. Simple as that. Easier done than reinstalling windows for an LTSC version. I personally have a dual boot with a win 11 with Atlas OS specifically for the software I can’t install on Linux.

You can already put your PC games on romm and your saves. You just download the game in gog and put it in romm in the windows or Linux platform (I think there is one for mac games also). If you already have romm installed, it might be easier to use it than to have a second service installed.
