I'm not sure what you mean when you say that you are not getting the right KBs, but you could always download what you need manually and just manually install it.

Using the link below you will see all the July 2024 updates for Win 11 23H2. Note that you need the 2 that are dated July 25th.

HSE: Very useful and I'll use the catalog to get what I need. Thanks. However, the two 7/25/28 KBs listed are Preview updates. Is that safe?

I haven’t read any complaints. But previews are exactly that. I refer to them as a Beta. You don’t need to install them at all. You’ll most likely get them the 2nd the of the month, which is patch Tuesday

You don't have to install preview updates if you prefer not to. Those are considered "optional" updates. You can simply grad the updates from earlier in the month if you prefer.
