Windows 10: Windows 11 22H2 update is continuously downloading and installing - why ??

For the past hour I have been trying to update. All that happens is a very slow continual loop between downloading and installing the update. No error messages.I've been through all the posts about the update but nothing else has been written about this issue.My computer is brand new with the original windows 11 pre-installed.I don't know whether it's normal to cycle through like this and to wait - or not ?And if I don't wait - how do I stop the process ? Is it through task manager ? Or something else ?And how do I get this issue added to the known issues section of the 'health' section ?Thank

:)

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.

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.
