I usually take "newbie" to mean "I am new to Debian", so I would ask did you know the current production of Debian was Bookworm.? I was curious why you would install Bullseye?
Maybe you have been using Debian for a while, but are not familiar with the technical side of maintaining Debian?

Do you have Internet access from your PC?
Or is your Debian PC isolated from the Internet? I have yet to learn how to update Debian computers which do not have access to the Internet.
The usual way to keep Debian updated is via an Internet connection, and running update commands.
Using the Internet is also usual to upgrade from an older version to a new version.
I could explain how I do version upgrades, once I know whether your PC has Internet or not.
