Hi, first time poster here 🙂

My current set up:

- 11th Gen Intel(R) Core™ i7-11700 @ 2.50GHz 2.50 GHz
- Windows 10 Pro, 22H2
- SketchupPro 2021, Version 21.1.332 64-bit
- VectorWorks 2021 SP5 64-bit

Windows Update says Windows 11 version 22H2 is ready. I am worried installing will mess up my existing Sketchup and/or VectorWorks.

Has anyone gone through this? Does upgrading require re-installing Sketchup? What was your experience, shall I upgrade to Windows 11 or wait?

Thanks  
Jana

Running SU Pro 23.1 on Windows 11 Pro 22H2 at work with ZERO issues.  
Not sure how SU 2021 will behave with that.

running W11 22H2 22621.2428 with SU 2023.1.340 pro - no issues.

i like to do a fresh OS install when upgrading but if you’re upgrading in-place - i’d reinstall SU afterwards.
