Be careful, you can only ever upgrade to the next version!<br>
>From Debian 9 to 11 doesn't work. You have to do 2 upgrades.<br>
>From 9 to 10 first and later from 10 to 11.<br>
You also cannot upgrade Windows 7 to Win 11 directly.<br>
<br>
This is very time-consuming, hence the recommendation to reinstall.<br>
<br>
No matter what you do, I would back up the tor config and the tor keys first.<br>
<br>
Important: (apt-key is deprecated) How the tor repo is added has changed.<br>

<br>
Again as a recommendation: Take the official Debian documentation and not any <br>
random guides from the Internet. Here are the links again. The documentary is <br>
translated into many languages. Chapters 2 and 4 are important.<br>
Your architecture is: 64-Bit-PC (AMD64)  <br>

<br>
Your relay is running Tor 0.4.8.11 on Linux<br>
That means you have time to read and ask questions.<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm out of here for now.<br>
I have enormous personal and legal problems because of the exits that I have <br>
to take care of.<br>
