Can someone help me out here? After I updated my Windows software on my laptop this evening, I got a message saying "Your version of Windows has reached the end of service". This really confuses me because I'm on Windows 11 and I got a new laptop literally 2 months ago and I barely even used 10-15% of it's total memory space on my C Drive.

Does anyone know what's going on here? Does this mean I won't be able to get security updates for my Windows on my new laptop? Am I going to have to pay more money just to get Windows to work properly and stay up-to-date? I'm feeling very concerned.

    I came across a new client computer but shipped with 22H2. It had the same problem but I found the following registry key changes:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]

    "ProductVersion"="Windows 11"

    "TargetReleaseVersionInfo"="24H2"

    "TargetReleaseVersion "=dword:00000001

    Worked for this client. There are plenty of tutorials about updating the registry key,

    Robert,

    I don't know if you have seen previous replies but others found the Windows 11 Installation Assistant updated them to the latest version 24H2. Download Windows 11

    @Robert Ward6

    I have version 21H2 and when I try using the normal update method, it tells me I have no updates yet I still have the update dialogue in my taskbar.

    Please open an admin Command Prompt window and run:

    CompatTelRunner.exe -m:appraiser.dll -f:DoScheduledTelemetryRun

    After it completes, run the following command:

    REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\TargetVersionUpgradeExperienceIndicators" /s

    Post the output here.

    The output shows whether there is a safeguard hold for your system.

    1. Open Disk Management and maximize it. Adjust the column widths in the top pane to make all the entries visible. Post a screenshot.
    2. Launch msinfo32.exe and click System Summary. Resize the columns in the right pane to make the entries visible, and post a screenshot of that screen.

    If you stick with 23H2 for now it will be out of support in November 2025.
