      The update functionality for older versions to upgrade to the new version will be released a few weeks after the iso release of Linux Mint 22. It’ll be an available upgrade in the Software Update Center application.

      Open the Update Manager (click on the little shield icon down near the clock) and click Edit > Upgrade to Linux Mint 22.

      Their website will have more thorough details.

      Mint for years but i forget. In the updates make sure fully updated first. Then i remember some sort of upgrade command.

      Im not much help but i think i did it once. Or you can preserve your home folder, broweser bookmarks, etc… the load the new os from scratch, but im sure theres an upgrade option.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
