When will the Intel Generation 11 CPU hold on the Install of 22H2 be resolved?

I have 2 computers with the Intel 11th Generation CPU and both are in hold for installation to Windows 11 22H2. Apparently there is a driver issue with the CPU that conflicts with 22H2 and Microsoft has decided to not install until the issue is resolved. After an extensive search on the internet, I can find no information on this, certainly not on the Microsoft site and also not on the Intel site.

Does anyone have any information on this? Your replies are certainly welcome.

    Yeah, it's weird: with an Intel i7 Processor @ 2.60 GHz I can't download windows 11. The computer is more than capable of onboarding windows 11

    Yes, I am referring to the Feature Update 22H2 which is technically an Upgrade install that can be done best by using the latest bootable media which is always the latest version. This avoids Windows Update and Installation Assistant gating and bugs.

    I should explain that I am not updating from Windows 10 to 11. I am attempting to update from Windows 11 Pro 21H1 to Windows 11 Pro 22H2, from Build 22000.1042 to Build 22621.xxx.

    You do not need to wait for Windows Update. As was already explained in one tutorial you should be able to manually Upgrade to Windows 11 by downloading the ISO from Media Creation Tool, double click to mount it, and right click Setup to Run as Administrator. This is explained more on the Download page ISO Download section by clicking the link Before you Start: https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/software-downlo...

    Normally the ISO won't bee gated like Windows Update or Installation Assistant. It is also a better install.

    Keep me posted on your progress as I will be here to help until the case is resolved.
