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.

    @Ian Mosley I think the fact the settings do mention an option to allow Web Access to Google pretty much says it all. It is outgoing from Edge to different sites that causes the warnings, but they do tie back to Google tracking.

    I have not yet allowed the exception, but it appears the warnings have stopped. I think Edge is much more animated than I remember. even from the Insiders version.

    Hi fg2001, and team,

    Now Running Windows 11 22H2.

    You now need to run Windows Update to install KB5017321 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 v 22H2 Build(22621.521) to bring your installation up to date.

    The problem with that is that W.U. was failing after the ISO .382.

    Had to use the workarounds to get it done. 😉

    Used Windows Assistant to install the update on my 1-year-old laptop. Step 3 (Install) completed and gave me the option to restart, which I did.

    Restart stalled, I waited 20-25 minutes and no response. Pressed power button to attempt to restart the laptop, it went into some strange state, and I could not get the laptop to restart. Screen was black.

    I figured it was "bricked" from the update and closed the lid.

    Fast forward 12 hours later: pressed power button on laptop and the update continued to complete.

    Laptop appears to be running fine, time will tell. Only problem I have is the Cumulative Update KB5017321 has failed 3 times.

    This is the longest and most concerning update I've received in the 33 years I've used Windows.

    Try this kb5017321 from the MS catalog.
