But is now back on Windows 11 Pro AND with all my programs running fine. 
For the record I've unearthed a way to upgrade in situ from Windows 10 keeping installed programs and data but bypassing the checks on TPM, Secure Boot and CPU generations.
The Latitude does actually have TPM (shipped with 1.2 but updated to TPM2.0 by me) but oddly no secure boot and the CPU is too old as well.
Details are outlined here: https://allthings.how/how-to-install...ot-or-tpm-2-0/
I used a modified version of "Method 2", copying the file install.esd from a Windows 11 ISO image into a Windows 10 installation on USB. Both downloaded from Microsoft this week.
On the Latitude, within Windows 10 Pro I just ran setup from the USB taking the option to NOT download updates during the process.
It looked like a Windows 10 update (as expected) but after a reboot Windows 11 Pro appeared and all seemed to work OK. It activated automatically and started downloading and installing updates.
