So my pc system settings say I'm on windows 11 pro but windows update says "Get the new version of windows to stay up to date Your version of windows has reached the end of service"

Hi,

Sorry to say the update did not work, it still says I need the updated version of Windows 11 to get updates, etc...

I will try again tomorrow night after work with your methods, hopefully I will not kill my computer as I am not a computer geek and not really famaliar with some of the methods you told me to try.....but willing to...

I will let you know tomorrow night..

Thanks,

Claudia

Hi,

Home from work...settled in now...

I did not try the steps yet you suggested as that's a lot for a non computer geek like me, however, trying the updater again, and so far it is at 70% and climbing slowly but surely, so I am hoping it works...will keep the computer on all night if necessary, so lets see what happens...if that does not work, will try the steps you suggested which sound like a bit over my head, but will try tomorrow night if this update does not work...cross your fingers...

Thank you,

Claudia

Hi,

I am at work now, so will try all tonight...

My computer was still downloading the updates when I went to bed last night, so I let it run, did not turn it off, when I got up this morning, it did do a restart as it was back to the start menu.

Went into the System/updates and it showed info in red, updates, "need new version of Windows, etc", you know the rest....tried hitting the UPDATE NOW BUTTON, which was red, but no luck. Then, of course, had to leave for work, so I turned computer off, not home, bad weather, did not want to take a chance of power surges, etc...But when I get home tonight, will try again and leave computer on.

I do understand what you say about 23H2 updating, etc., when I go into the system, it does say I have Windows 11 Home Edition 23H2, no longer 22H2, but does not seem to be downloading the updates for 23H2 as you say. OK, no biggie, will try suggested steps tonight when I get home.

I REALLY DO APPRECIATE YOUR HELP, you seem to be the only one that knows what is going on, not even Office Depot Tech help could figure it out even after taking over my computer over the weekend.....

THANKS THANKS...

Claudia

Hello,

You can rest assured, that is intended behavior. The enablement package only installs a certain version of 23H2 and then it lets Windows download and install all of the other updates.

I would let that run overnight and see if it has to restart in the morning, and if it does, I would let it restart and then go back to settings to check for more updates and if there are any, let it idle and download and install them.

Hope this helps.
