    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to lid hinges starting to break up this laptop has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

    Info for 2021-2026:
    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

Hi Bree,

Actually, MS is based in Redmond, Washington (state of the US) and not in the district of Washington D.C. Just a minor correction.

You are in Montreal Canada, Microsoft is based in Washington DC, USA. Maybe this is a geopolitical issue rather than an OS one. @Caledon Ken, how does your 'Fix problem using Windows Update' look in Toronto?

Hi Bree,

Actually, MS is based in Seattle, Washington (state of the US) and not in the district of Washington D.C. Just a minor correction.

Kind regards,

OK, both of you, up against the wall. Hand over your Windows product keys.
You're an embarrassment to Microsoft... :D

At the moment, Microsoft is busy "remodeling" Redmond, Washington.
They call it... modernization.

On Google Maps just search for "Microsoft Campus"...

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to lid hinges starting to break up this laptop has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

    Info for 2021-2026:
    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

Thank you, Ghot. I admit I made my response in haste and have since corrected it. Please don't take my keys; I've come such a long way.

One OS to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

Microsoft cannot be destroyed by normal means.
Microsoft must be thrown into the Cracks of Doom (also known as the Sammath Naur), which is a deep chasm of fire inside Mount Doom (Orodruin) in Mordor.
