Windows 10: Win11 24H2 update held back . Why ?

I have several PCs at home. All received the notice for the 24H2 update . All except one were able to install it .First, there was an error code. Then was an error message to the effect that the update couldn't install. I can't remember the wording. I no longer see the 24H2 update in the history, nor is it available to install anymore. WINVER shows the system is still on 23H2 .How can I figure out what was preventing the update from installing, and when would I be able to try again ?

Factory reset Windows 11 24H2 (build 26100.863)

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

There are no currently listed problems resetting version 24H2 of Windows 11 and no specific steps you need to perform, are you experiencing any problems with that insider build that is causing you to perform a Windows reset?

 

Will 24H2 Only Be Available to Copilot+ PCs?

My two cents - Msft starts shipping out Copilot+ PCs on June 18th. I believe they will be shipped with Win11 24H2 ready. So this June 15th release you referenced is prepping for that. For the non-Copilot+ PCs, users can still preview 24H2 via insider channel, and I believe it will be available eventually for our non-Copilot+ PCs. Just like previous years, they usually arrived around fall, not summer. Once again, just my two cents.

 

A required privilege is not held by the client // help please

My problem: A required privilege is not held by the client shows up when I try to run any executable file. I am the only administrator on all household PC's. I have at least five Windows 10 PC's in the household.

For a couple of months I had my problem on only one desktop PC (v1909) which I have dealt with by using Safe Mode when I absolutely had to do so. As of today I can add one laptop (v2004) to my list with this problem. I read the one post that I could find and I tried the suggestion today on both of the problem PC's to no avail. (Tweaking.com's cautious repair tool, observing the cautious steps, and apply only the relevant fixes for permissions.) I have at least one other PC with v2004 and no privilege problem and at least one other PC with v1909 and no privilege problem.

Previously I had tried these six methods:
1. Run the Program as Administrator
2. Use Command Prompt to run the file
3. Disable The Admin Approval Mode
4. Disable UAC using Registry Editor
5. Change Sharing Permission
6. Take ownership of the Root Drive

Thank you for any new suggestions or known fixes . . . .
