i'm a bit confused about upgrade paths.
Is there an enablement package for this release?
No. Windows 11, version 24H2 requires a full OS swap so it cannot be deployed using servicing technology. In addition, devices must be running Windows 11, version 23H2 or 22H2 with the May 2024 non-security preview update installed in order to update to version 24H2.

Can I upgrade our organization's devices from Windows 10 directly to this new update?
Yes. You can upgrade devices directly from Windows 10 to Windows 11, version 24H2[4] using the target version capability in Windows Update for Business, the Windows Update for Business deployment service, and feature update deployments in Windows Autopatch.
Is the first item only considering W11? Because the second item lists W10 as a valid upgrade path too, besides W11 22H2 and W11 23H2.
I'm also confused as to why the W10 upgrade would only work using WUFB and autopatch and not, for instance, MECM.
