    Building a new desktop on the horizon; this was definitely a budget build based on circumstances at the time.

If you downloaded the iso file, you dont need the media creation tool and vice versa

OK
have created a new Win 11 USB and I have just started recovering the new image.
Saved all recent files in case I will need the later.
Won't know anything else for a while.

Sent from my old win 10 laptop. Thanks to all.

Big thanks again; just did a recovery from a new image to my 4 T HHD and let it restart itself. Came up great; went into PowerShell and ran all the scans again; clean bill of health. Another re-boot: Feels a bit faster than previous test. I plan on running this overnight before I go back to my SSD copy. Found out what I needed. In the end I may partition the 4T for other storage. Did lose that 3T Toshiba HHD which is annoying. I will mark this as finished.
