@RobertA Hello and welcome to ElevenForum.

Try doing an In-Place Upgrade instead...

Repair Install Windows 11 with an In-place Upgrade

This tutorial will show you how to do a repair install of Windows 11 by performing an in-place upgrade without losing anything. If you need to repair or create a new recovery partition or having problems with the Windows 11 operating system on your PC, and the usual solutions will not fix it...

www.elevenforum.com

Here is the short version of the In-place upgrade tutorial...

DISABLE non-Microsoft:
a) antivirus software
b) firewall software
c) drive encryption software

Make a full OS backup with a program like Macrium Reflect or AOMEI Backupper Standard
Macrium Reflect
AOMEI Backupper Standard

Get the Windows 11 ISO image and save it to your desktop...

Download Official Windows 11 ISO file from Microsoft

This tutorial will show you how to download an official Windows Server or Windows 11 64-bit or ARM64 ISO file from Microsoft. Microsoft provides ISO files for Windows Server and Windows 11 to download. You can use these ISO files to clean install or in-place upgrade Windows 11. The Flight Hub...

www.elevenforum.com

Right click the ISO image and choose: MOUNT
Open File Explorer and you will see a new drive letter. It will "look" like a DVD optical drive.
Double click the new drive letter to open it.
Find setup.exe and double click it to start the in-place upgrade.

Choose the Keep personal files and apps option.

After it's all done... to UNmount the ISO image, right click the new drive letter and choose: EJECT.

The ONLY thing you will lose is some of your personalizations.
Your drivers, programs and data will be intact.

You can also just type winver in the Taskbar search box, to see what version you're on.

Maybe you live in the Far East and just don't realize it?

It's even tomorrow in the EU by now.
Might want to check your computer clock. Make sure the date and time and time zone are correct.

Ha, ha................no still 21st here, and the date and time are OK

It's not the 22H2 update with a wrong date but the 2 others before

Check which versions of OS this ISO.

Now I'm thinking, it's probably not the right thing to run in this case "C:\Windows\System32\Dism.exe"

Would that be the right thing to do?

F:\sources\dism.exe /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:F:\sources\install.wim

Maybe some kind of glitch on the MS update server, or the update history server?
Maybe you've invented time travel?

What does it show when you type winver in the Taskbar search box?

Windows 11 Installation Assistant is the most direct and simplest way to update your PC to the 22H2 version.

Download Windows 11

Thanks a lot guys.

Windows 11 Installation Assistant worked great (some minor personal adjustments needed)

And even the update dates are fixed (for what it's worth)

Regards,
Robert

We are glad to hear your issue has been resolved, thank you for letting us know that all is now well!

Totally weird. Proves the old saw that "if at first you don't succeed..." is also true for Windows Upgrade. What's weird is that the first attempt, as reported, succeeded without actually working. That's a first in my experience. But with Windows, anything is possible...

Yes, it was a new aio, and it gets a lot of updates at the same time, maybe that was too much.
