Hi, I'm Anish. I am looking for assistance in returning my primary device to a stable build of Windows 11 without performing a clean installation, as I need to preserve all my installed applications and personal files.
I recently joined the Windows Insider Program to explore new settings but opted out shortly after. I attempted to use the "Fix problems using Windows Update" (reinstall) option in Recovery, but I remain stuck on the Insider build.
Device & OS Specifications:
Laptop: HP Notebook 15s-du1064tu
Edition: Windows 11 Pro
Version: 25H2
OS Build: 26200.8117
Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.297.0
Installation Date: April 7, 2026
The Issue: Since my current build (26200.8117) is higher than the current public stable release, the standard "Go Back" option is no longer available, and the "Unenroll this device when the next version of Windows releases" toggle doesn't provide an immediate solution.
I need something that just Sends me back to a stable release without losing any data
Thank You For your help!

Now I am running 26200.8117 and it's a public version. I am showing as no longer being in the Insider Program.
