How to get the Windows 11 2024 Update (24H2)



 Windows Blogs:

Today, Pavan Davuluri announced the latest Copilot+ PC innovation and the availability of the Windows 11 2024 Update. We are excited to continue to bring the power of AI and new experiences to Windows 11 and enhance what you can achieve using Copilot+ PCs and Windows 11. In this blog, I’ll share more information on the coming availability of new features and apps for Copilot+ PCs, details on how to get the Windows 11 2024 Update and details for commercial and education customers.


Coming availability of the newest AI experiences for Copilot+ PCs​

We continue to introduce new AI features that light up more natural and conversational engagement with your devices, with experiences you can only get with Copilot+ PCs. Windows Insiders with Copilot+ PCs will be the first to experience these new features, leveraging the valuable expertise of this community before they become broadly available to customers, with a phased rollout to select devices and markets beginning in November. We plan to regularly share more information on the status of each new feature and app closer to the availability date, including by region and device silicon technology. When these new features and apps become more widely available they will be released to Copilot+ PCs via:

Windows Update:
  • Recall (Preview)1
  • Click to Do (Preview)
  • Improved Windows Search
App updates from the Microsoft Store:
  • Super resolution in Photos
  • Generative fill and erase in Paint

The Windows 11 2024 Update​

Starting today, we begin to release the Windows 11 2024 Update, also referred to as Windows 11, version 24H2. This update is a full operating system (OS) swap that contains new foundational elements required to deliver transformational AI experiences and exceptional performance. You can learn more about all the new features including enhanced battery saver; Bluetooth LE audio; HDR background support and support for Wi-Fi 7 in What’s new inside this update.


We are taking a phased approach with the 2024 Update rollout, based on when data shows your device is ready and you will have a great experience. We will begin with eligible devices running Windows 11, version 22H2 and 23H22 for those who have previously opted in to be amongst the first to experience new enhancements. (How can you be among the first to experience new features? Navigate to Settings > Windows Update, and turn on “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available.”) For more information on ways to get the update, watch this video.


If we detect that your device may have an issue, such as an application incompatibility, we may put a safeguard hold in place and not offer the update until that issue is resolved. Over time, we will make the 2024 Update available to more and more devices based on hardware eligibility, reliability metrics and other factors that impact the update experience. We will let you know via the Windows Update Settings page3 when it’s available for your device. We will regularly share more information on the status of the rollout via Windows release health hub.


The Windows 11 2024 Update continues the annual feature update cadence, with new feature updates released in the second half of the calendar year. This new version resets the 24 months of support for Home and Pro editions.


Information for commercial and education customers​

Version 24H2 is now available through Windows Server Update Services (including Configuration Manager), Windows Update for Business and the Microsoft 365 admin center2,4. We recommend that commercial organizations begin targeted deployments to validate that their apps, devices and infrastructure work as expected with the new release. You can find more information on IT tools to support Windows 11, version 24H2 in the Windows IT Pro Blog. Enterprise and Education editions will receive 36 months of support beginning today.

This release also marks the availability of the next Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) release, Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC 2024. The LTSC provides customers with access to an option for special-purpose devices and environments, such as manufacturing, healthcare systems or other environments that require longer term device update stability5. Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC 2024 is supported for five years. (Note: Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2024 is also available today and has a 10-year support lifecycle6.)

Experience the latest innovations in Windows 11​

As I often note, installing the latest updates is the best way to keep your Windows device protected and productive with the latest features and innovations. We are committed to delivering continuous innovation to Windows 11 so that you can benefit from the best experiences as new features are ready. If you have not yet moved to Windows 11, now is a great time to do so, and Windows Backup is available to help you back up files, themes, some settings to many of your installed apps and Wi-Fi information. As is our normal practice, we will closely monitor the rollout of these new Windows 11 features, and continue to share timely information on the status of the rollout and known issues (open and resolved) via the Windows release health dashboard and @WindowsUpdate. Please continue to tell us about your experience by providing comments or suggestions via Feedback Hub.

If you don't want to wait until 24H2 is available via Windows Update, then you could download the latest 24H2 ISO with MCT in option one below....


.... and then do an in-place upgrade to 24H2 using the ISO like below.

I finally got the update installed (took multiple tries)....then I went back to 23H2.

I had hard drive issues (had to format one of my NVME drives multiple times just so it wouldn't show up as a RAW drive), game issues (games would just not launch or if they did would give errors after launching), and general system issues (couldn't copy/move files from drives that were formatted correctly).

24H2 is not ready for prime time, in my personal opinion.

I've gone back to 23H2 Pro and put a block so I'm not offered 24H2 for now.

That's weird. I've not had any problems, and I have an NVME drive, and multiple hard drives connected.

The update wasn't being offered to me yet, so my impatient self used the Windows 11 Installation Assistant to do the update. So far so good, no issues. Update process was smooth, didn't time it, as I was doing other things. (y)

Same here. .. Took mine about 35-40 minutes or so, total. But everything seems to be working fine. . I would have preferred to do a complete fresh install, but this time, I did not have the patience to reinstall all of my software and such.

That is why I didn’t complete a Fresh Install
After fresh installing 24H2 I looked at it, contemplated the 3 or 4 days to get my PC loaded and the settings right, decided nah not today and reloaded an image and did an in-place Upgrade.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
I would have preferred to do a complete fresh install, but this time, I did not have the patience to reinstall all of my software and such.

My old 'main machine' started life as an OEM Windows 7 laptop. It had Office Starter 2010 (a free Excel and Word) something that was only ever supplied as part of an OEM Win7 install. There are no setup files available to reinstall it. If I wanted to keep it then an upgrade was my only option. I've been doing so since Windows 10 was released, and migrated the installed OS to my System One in order to continue doing so with Windows 11. As such it's probably the only Win11 machine that has an upgrade history going back through 17 upgrades over nine years :wink:

    …still on a horse.
I finally got the update installed (took multiple tries)....then I went back to 23H2.

I had hard drive issues (had to format one of my NVME drives multiple times just so it wouldn't show up as a RAW drive), game issues (games would just not launch or if they did would give errors after launching), and general system issues (couldn't copy/move files from drives that were formatted correctly).

24H2 is not ready for prime time, in my personal opinion.

I've gone back to 23H2 Pro and put a block so I'm not offered 24H2 for now.
ya, im having a lot of bad problems with it, it literally broke my intel graphics driver, how do you downgrade back to 23H2?

Hi, welcome.

Did you not make a system image/backup before you updated?

Can you not just seek help here to repair the Intel issue?

Create a thread in the following forum section


If 24H2 created more issues, perhaps create a thread in here instead.

You can't....

You either use a backup or you do a clean install of 23H2 (my personal choice as there were some things I wanted to change -- I do have a backup and it does work as I tried it, but decided on a clean install this time).

I just ended up just reinstalling the 24H2 update, by going to System->Recovery->Fix problems using Windows Update, in the Settings app, and it fixed the graphics driver

And no, I deleted the Windows.old folder and the restore points that the update made, because I usually never have a problem with system updates, so I usually just delete those right after updating to save space, but I am going to save the restore point after reinstalling the update just in case this time now though.

Restore points aren’t a system backup.

System backups using something like Hasleo Free or Macrium Reflect are a staple in using Windows without fear of problems and having to reinstall from scratch.
Also, In-Place repair upgrades (Which is what you did) don’t always work.

However, I am confident members could of helped you with whatever driver issue you were having. Not to worry.

Ya, when I first installed the update yesterday, my screen was like flashing, and when I tried reinstalling the graphics driver, it was saying access denied, but it's all working perfectly fine now after doing the repair upgrade thing

We have been contacted today by multiple software vendors who say their software is not supported on Windows 11 24H2. We are seeing program crashes and driver issues. I would caution IT managers in a business setting to not deploy this update. It is not ready for production.

@Taliseian Could you share how I can temporarily block the update to 24h2? How did you do it? Mine is Windows 11 Home. Some key in the registry? This system has many problems and inconveniences. I understand that it is not worth migrating so soon if the user has an stable system. Thank you.

Hello, :alien:

You can specify a TargetReleaseVersion version for 23H2 below to stay on that version until 60 days past end of service for the 23H2 version, or until you unspecify this.
