Microsoft’s standard practice is not to roll out the latest feature updates to all compatible computers at once. Windows 11 23H2, which began rolling out last fall, was no exception. The update was rolled out gradually in several stages, and Microsoft announced this week that it is now available to all users.
Since the stable version of Windows 11 23H2 is now available to everyone, users of compatible devices can download the update if they haven’t done so yet for some reason. To do this, simply open the Settings app, go to Windows Update, and check for available updates. Windows 11 23H2 has the same minimum system requirements as previous versions of the OS, so there shouldn’t be any compatibility issues after installation.
Each version of Windows has a life cycle, and Windows 11 22H2 is no exception to this rule. Support for Windows 11 22H2 will end on October 8, 2024, after which devices with this version of the OS will no longer receive updates, including security patches. This will make the computer more vulnerable to various threats, so Microsoft recommends not to delay the update and switch to Windows 11 23H2 or a later version of the software platform.
