Hi,

I have discovered that windows 11 23h2 has availability for everyone now. But, when I checked windows update (I have had for a while the "Get updates as soon as they are available" turned on) and when to optional updates it is not available! I checked on the microsoft site and it said I was at the correct version to see the update, and I double checked. Do you know any ways to make it appear or do I just have to wait?

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Windows update

    Hi, 23H2 installed on my main PC but is not showing up on my Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga which I purchased this summer. Both systems are compatible with Windows 11 and run fairly the same applications. I don't want to reinstall Windows with a USB medium just to get this update but would like all my systems to be on the same page with 23H2. It is a super annoying idea to block updates like that. Instead, the update should be proposed with at worst a warning explaining that it has issues and which issues. If this is caused by a piece of software or driver, maybe that can be uninstalled or updated, fixing the problem, but without any knowledge of why 23H2 is not offered for some systems but others, nothing can be done. If you think this is Lenovo that purposedfully blocks updates to push users in purchasing new laptops all the times, let me know and I will keep that in mind for my next laptop, moving back to Dell probably.

    I turned off "get updates as soon as possible" and checked for updates, and the 23H2 update appeared.

    Press Start and search for Windows Security,

    Right click on it and select App settings,

    Press Repair and then Reset,

    After that check for updates again.

    That's how i got it.
