The simplest path to upgrade PCs that are currently running an earlier version of Windows client to Windows 11 is through an in-place upgrade.
> [!TIP]
> In-place upgrade is the preferred method to use when migrating from Windows 10 to a later release of Windows 10, and is also a preferred method for upgrading from Windows 7, 8.1, or 10 if you do not plan to significantly change the device's configuration or applications. MDT includes an in-place upgrade task sequence template that makes the process really simple.

In-place upgrade differs from [computer refresh](refresh-a-windows-10-computer-with-windows-11.md) in that you cannot use a custom image to perform the in-place upgrade. In this article we will add a default Windows 11 image to the production deployment share specifically to perform an in-place upgrade.
