Why I can't upgrade Windows 11 23H2 to 24H2 on my PC?
- Nov 05, 2025
This is because one of the system requirements is missing for Windows 11 24H2, which demands much more rigorous requirements than 23H2. That's why you can't upgrade Windows 11 23H2 to 24H2.
The solution is to patch the Windows 11 24H2 ISO and start the in-place upgrade afterwards.

Let me know if you need more help. I have upgraded a couple of unsupported PCs to Windows 11 24H2 by following the steps in above tutorial.
Windows 11 24H2 is still rolling out in stages, so even supported devices won’t always get it immediately. If your PC is stuck on 23H2, it’s usually because Windows Update placed a temporary compatibility hold. This can be triggered by outdated drivers, old BIOS/firmware, storage controller issues, or certain apps that Microsoft hasn’t cleared yet.
A few things you can try:
1. Update BIOS and all major drivers
(Chipset, iGPU, storage/NVMe, and any OEM utilities.)
Older firmware is one of the most common reasons 24H2 doesn’t appear.
2. Check your system partitions
The EFI or Recovery partition being too small can block the upgrade.
3. Install 24H2 manually
Use Microsoft’s official Installation Assistant or the 24H2 ISO from their download page. This usually works even when Windows Update hasn’t offered it yet.
In short: your hardware is fine—your PC is just held back for compatibility reasons. Updating firmware/drivers or using the Installation Assistant is the quickest way to get 24H2.
