Microsoft released the Windows 11 autumn update at the beginning of October. However, a bug has crept in. The installation creates an almost nine gigabyte cache file that cannot be deleted.
Just a warning, Windows doesn’t always play nice when installed on the same drive as Linux. If you have two drives, try installing them on different ones. If not, there’s a risk that a Windows update can mess some things up. Usually it’s fine, just I’ve had issues with it and so have others.
Anyway, Linux is really easy now. I would recommend something with KDE, like the Fedora KDE spin as an example. KDE is very familiar to Windows users, though very customizable if you want too. It should be a very easy transition, as long as you go in not expecting it to be identical to Windows. You have to meet it where it is, which does require relearning a few things.
If you have questions feel free to ask. There’s also plenty of other users on Lemmy who would be happy to help.
