How to get the update

Starting today, the first major update to Windows 11 is now available for users who want to update. Our launch approach to Windows 11 leverages our well-established update systems and processes. The measured and phased rollout will offer the update via Windows Update when data shows that your device is ready, as our objective is to provide a quality update experience. We will initially ramp up the offering availability in the first weeks as we monitor quality signals. If we detect that your device may have an issue, such as an application incompatibility, we may put a safeguard hold in place and not offer the update until that issue is resolved. To learn more about the status of the Windows 11 rollout, safeguard holds and which holds may be applied to your device, visitWindows release health.Learn more about the ways to install Windows 11.

    Hi fg2001, and team,

    I found that if you go over to the link below you can download the MCT and install the Windows 11 22H2 from within the tool. But don't boot from the Flash Drive you create. Go over on the Flash Drive and elect Setup, this way you can choose to keep ALL your programs and files. The only thing that will change is the build 😊

    Hope this helps others looking to upgrade now.

    Now Running Windows 11 22H2

    Now it's time to kick the tires on the new build 🤞

    @Leprechaun J,

    Already done all that, but W.U. got in troubles after upgrading with the MS ISO 22621.382, had to use workarounds to get over the W.U. loop and error problems and get to 22621.521.

    See my previous posts from yesterday. 😎

    Thanks, fg2001 I read your very helpful posts. 

              and I got it fixed. I'm now up to date, I think. I downloaded it through the Catalog and then reran it through WU. Now running
