I want to switch from Vista to Windows 10 with my computer. How does it work? Can I have Windows 10 on my laptop, maybe I can do that on a stick or something?
Back up data, download ISO for Windows 10 from Microsoft, unzip ISO to USB stick, install Windows 10, restore data.
An upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 10 is not possible, but only a complete reinstallation. But you also have to buy a Windows 10 license to activate.
You can use the Media Creation Tool for Windows 10 to create an installation disc (such as a DVD or USB stick) and then install it on this Windows 10.
Here is the official guide from Microsoft with download possibility of the Media Creation Tool or the Windows 10 ISO file:
