Imaging with Macrium is easy.
If you download and install from MajorGeeks link in previous post, then attach an External USB Drive thats enough space to take the whole working System you're good to go.
I did a quick Video 3 1/2 minutes ( bit rough) but I installed Macrium - USB 256GB drive attached, image - open the image ( mount it) to check its worked, then Unmount the drive. Link at end of post.
This image only took under 4 minutes from start to finish but theres nothing else on the install, so the more data /programs your computer has the longer it will take.
Once finished, unplug the USB drive you just used, then do the Upgrade to 24H2.
Once you have the Image - IF everything turns custard with an upgrade at least you have an original backup.
Macrium can do many things this is only a tiny part. IF you want to make a bootable USB Flash drive ( I suggest you do) from the program top left click on rescue media -plug in the drive and follow the prompts. ( or ask).

Re-Reading your last reply -- YES you still need the RUFUS 24H2 to do an upgrade.

Upgrades = Old bugs replaced with new Bugs.
