    Hi Tamara Wilcox,

    If your Windows version is too old, you need to perform an In-place upgrade.

    Disclaimer: Let’s try performing an in-place install or in-place upgrade which will refresh your Windows files and operating system without removing files or applications. That being said, we always recommend that if you have important data, you should back it up before making large system changes. If you want to back up your data first, please do so. Once you are done backing up, you can follow the steps in the following guides: How to run In-place upgrade in Windows 11 - Microsoft Community

    After that, your system will get 25H2. You may run Windows Update to get latest patches.

    I hope that above information is helpful to you.

    Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.


    Your Windows 11 may be outdated. And, if it's truly outdated, something might be preventing the update.


    What is the current version and "OS Build" of your Windows 11?

    • Press "Windows + R", type winver, and click OK.

    If you prefer, share a screenshot. Use the shortcut "Windows + Shift + S" to use the screenshot tool.

    Be sure to censor your email address if it appears. The Microsoft Q&A is public.


    Also, please share a screenshot of your system information so I can see if there might be anything preventing a possible update.

    • Press "Windows + R", type msinfo32 and press Enter.

    Maximize the window and use the shortcut "Windows + Shift + S" to use the screenshot tool.


    Looking forward to your reply.
