Upgrade from Windows11 Home 23HR to 25HR is this possible
l currently run Windows 11 Home 23HR . In November 2024 l did receive prompt to upgrade HR24, but had website access issues when HR24 was installed. l have since uninstalled HR24 and am back to the original HR 23 l did receive one update in February for the Windows Malicious Tool detect but that was all. l have not received any operating system updates from Microsoft, nor have l received any requests to upgrade. Should l be concerned. The HR 23 system is currently running on my PC without issues

hi chor2408 No need to worry, you’re actually fine. You’re on Windows 11 23H2, which is still supported and receiving security updates. The reason you’re not seeing 24H2 again is likely because Microsoft placed a temporary hold on your device, especially since you had issues with it before.
Updates are rolled out gradually, and sometimes devices are intentionally skipped until compatibility issues are fixed.
About 25H2: it’s not widely available yet, so nothing to upgrade to there for now.
My suggestion:
Stay on 23H2 since it’s working well, keep installing updates, and wait until Microsoft offers the next upgrade again.
