HP Compaq Pro 6305 small from factor pc

[SamehAbdelqawy]

Hi!

I have this product with 8 GB RAM and 240 GB SSD hard disk.

'd like to upgrade my OS. My question is:

Can I install Windows10 22H2 plus Adobe Photoshop CS6 and Adobe Illustrator C13? And what about the efficacy of my pc. Will it go slow or still good?

Thanks for any help.

Your 6305 fully supports windows 10.  There are drivers here for windows 10

You have two options:  Run the "in-place upgrade" to install windows 10 or replace your 240gb drive with a new SSD and do a clean install of windows 10 64 bit.

select "update now" and pick either home or professional.  I assume you have 64 bit version

--or--

download the ISO and do a clean install using a new SSD and after you get windows 10 working, add your old SSD so you can obtain files from it.

If you do a clean install then you need to use your windows 7 or 8 key to activate windows 10.   if you do an in-place upgrade then it is activated automatically.  Later on, if you upgrade your SSD then the license is automatically activated.
