Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.1742
Hi everyone.

I'm on Windows 11. I think it's Windows 11 Home. Running a Dell Inspiron 7700 A/O. On "Winver" it tells me i am Windows 11 22H2 Build 22621.4317.

Every now and again I look for updates but on doing this today I get the message "Windows Update - Attention needed" so I search for updates. Then I receive the message "Your version of Windows has reached end of service".

Can anybody advise me if that is OK or should I be able, somehow, to upgrade to a newer version ?

On looking around on here it seems 22H2 is ancient. Am I being let down by someone here do you think.

I'd really appreciate anyone's advice and assistance as I'm no Windows Guru I'm afraid. Thanks very much

Steve

The question is: Why your computer still running on 22h2 and not 24h2?
Did you upgraded from Win 10?

Coincidentally, I just had to do this with a laptop that was still on 22H2. I don't know how I finally got it to happen but I kept messing with it and looking for updates and eventually I got it up to date. As far as advice, the only advice I have is just keep messing with it.

That'll teach me to read the whole thread before I spout off.

Now I wish I'd come here and asked for help. I wouldn't have been pulling half my hair out messing with updates.
