As it is Windows 11 there is the option to reinstall windows via Settings > System > Recovery > Fix problems using windows update > Reinstall now.
What happens if you try that.

Just updated windows 11 to 22631.4460 and I am seeing a "End of Service" message in settings under windows update. It was my understanding that 23H2 was receiving updates till 2025? Is this a bug?

2024-11-20T03:54:06+00:00 I noticed this update breaks the search indexing on the search app with a message "Search indexing was turned off" which happens on reboot and lasts a few minutes. The latest consumer disk image for windows 12 version 24h2 also has the bug because this update is integrated into the OS image.
