I’m considering switching to linux but I’m not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or “cleaner” debloated versions.

      I highly doubt it. Not saying that Windows is good, but my i7 8th gen with 16GB of RAM boots Windows 10 Enterprise (with the usual crap disabled) into the desktop faster than the time it takes to post. Info here and here. Frankly Debian with GNOME doesn’t boot much faster than Windows on that laptop.
