Regular windows with Putty. What OS are you running on your desktop?

Windows 10

Ok. Try using Putty and ssh into your laptop

Still DLing putty...

Ok got putty installed. But keep getting network error: connection timed out...

You can even do it from a phone if you have an SSH app.

Using a new instance of umbrel node...

Does that mean deleting and reinstalling umbrel completely?

No. Don’t delete anything. Just spin up a new node on a new machine, recover it there and copy over your bitcoin data.
