Have you thought of buying a replacement SSD internal hard drive for it, doing a fresh install of windows onto that then using a lead external / case to use your old drive allowing you copy what you want off / access the old hard drive? it will also speed it up.

Other thing is with Windows 11 coming out, if your laptop will take it would that not replace 10 on it?
