How to get the Windows 11 2024 Update (24H2)?

Before you proceed with any installation or update, it’s crucial to back up your important files. Use an external drive or cloud storage to ensure your data is safe. Check your system requirements to ensure your PC meets the necessary specifications for the 2024 update. Microsoft’s official website provides a list of requirements.

Large updates can take time. Make sure your device is plugged in during the process, and do not turn it off. New updates sometimes come with unexpected glitches. Keep an eye on forums or Windows support for any common issues related to the 2024 Update. If you're concerned about stability, you might want to wait a few weeks after the initial rollout to let any major bugs get ironed out.

If your device is eligible, then you should receive the update notification.

Before proceeding with the update, ensure that your PC meets the system requirements for Windows 11. These include:

1. A compatible 64-bit processor (1 GHz or faster with at least 2 cores).
2. 4 GB of RAM or more.
3. 64 GB or more of storage.
4. DirectX 12 compatible graphics / WDDM 2.x.
5. TPM version 2.0.
6. UEFI firmware with Secure Boot capability.

24H2 is now publicly available now. My laptop received the update notice a few days ago.
