Why am I still on 24H2?
My Windows 11 machine is still on 24H2, every time I ask it to check for updates, it says there's no updates. 25H2 released in September, yet it hasn't rolled out to update to me yet? Why?

The only optional update is 2026-04 preview for KB5083631 which is 26100.8328 (a preview for 24H2).

Give it a try and see if updates start rolling again.
Alternatively, you can https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=108398 and go from there.
