big sur update from el capitan

I bought the Adobe Creative Cloud but it is not compatible with my iMac which is running El Capitan. How do I upgrade the OS?

Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and depending on which iMac model you have, click on High Sierra, Catalina, or Big Sur. Big Sur requires it to be a 2014 or newer one.
