Windows 11 23H2 22631.3447
HP recently did a warranty repair to replace my SSD drive; I received the repaired computer two days ago (11/30) and it is working fine. When they loaded the OS, they loaded Version 21H2 (for whatever reason). I have been hoping that Windows Update would offer me Version 22H2, but that has not happened (as yet?). I have read that 21H2 stopped servicing in October, so I need to get the system on 22H2 (or 23H2?). My computer was bought in May, 2023.

I am very much a novice re upgrades, clean installs, etc. Would appreciate simple guidance as to which tutorial to use or how to go about getting from 21H2 to 22H2.

Or, should I just wait for Windows Update to (eventually?) send me the update to 22H2?

Thanks.

The same option applies to 21H2 to 23H2 - skipping 22H2 as an intermediate step, as I did it on my notebook.
