Insider Program Switching channel
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out regarding an issue I am facing with my Windows Insider Program settings.
By mistake, I switched my device to the Dev Channel, but I would like to return to the Beta Channel. I attempted to switch back to Beta and even recovered my system once to resolve the issue. However, after an update, my system reverted to the Dev Channel again. I do not require the Dev Channel and would prefer to stay on the Beta Channel.
Unfortunately, I am unable to perform a clean installation of Windows, as my laptop contains private and critical data that I cannot risk losing. I kindly request your assistance in providing a solution to help me switch back to the Beta Channel without the need for a clean installation.
Please Microsoft team reach me out with the mail with solution i dont want to lose my data as i dont have any bootable drive

Before we dive into potential solutions, let's try to understand the issue better. You've tried switching back to the Beta Channel, and even recovered your system, but it still reverts to the Dev Channel after an update. This suggests that there might be a configuration or registry issue that's causing the problem.
Open Settings > Windows Update > Windows Insider Program.Verify which channel you're currently on.If the option to change to the Beta Channel is available, proceed.
