Windows 10: Cannot upgrade to Windows 11 22H2

I have tried 5 times to upgrade to Windows 11 22H2 and failed. Two times was with a microsoft tech helping me. Last try was an in-place upgrade, that's what they called it. I have no idea why. Every time I live chat them, I get someone who just wants to hit the download button and try it again. They are so reluctant to escalate you to someone who knows something. I have already had to pay extra for internet usage due to being on live chat with them for so many hours. One guy disabled a ton of things including virus protection and firewall but that didn't help. Does anyone have any ideas

:)

Windows 11 22H2 on my Windows 11

Hi - my Dell XPS 15 7590 originally came with Windows 10 but I upgraded to Windows 11 without problems. Now running Windows 11 21H2 OS Build 22000.1098

Windows update is not offering me Windows 11 22H2 to download/install.

My Windows Registry does not seem to have any reference to '"DestBuildNum, UpEx, UpExU, and RedReason" keys.

Is there some incompatibility with my system that is stopping Windows Update from offering me 22H2?

I'm also registered for Windows Insider and that does offer me an Insider version of 22H2.

Thanks for any suggestions.

 

22h2 missing in update

Hi narciso,

If 22H2 is not listed on the Windows Update page, as an alternative, you can use the "Windows 11 Installation Assistant" to upgrade to 22H2. Visit the following link to download the tool.
