My PC has Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04 Dual boot installed previously, and now I wanna upgrade windows to 11. My PC meets all the requirements of windows 11. The questions:

Can I keep ubuntu after upgrading windows?
Will it cause any problem?
 
Solution
if they both run as UEFI there shouldn't be any problems. It should just keep running how it was.

I assume you are upgrading to win 11 from 10 and not clean install.
the upgrade should keep the same settings as previous install so dual boot should keep working as it is.

Clean install would likely be same process in setting up dual boot as 10 was.

Win 11 needs secure boot enabled, I don't know Ubuntu enough to know if it uses it or not. That would be only possible problem I can see.
