Windows Insider DEV Channel not receiving updates
Of course. Here's a more direct and helpful version:
This is a super common headache in the Dev Channel. I've been there myself—the updates just stop for no reason.
Your best bet is to run the Windows Insider Program troubleshooting tool (search for it in Settings); it's designed to fix this exact glitch and usually kicks things loose for me.
If that fails, try pausing and then resuming updates in your Insider settings; this often forces the system to check again and find the latest build.

I tried the above but it still ain't fixing my issue nor receiving any updates. Now i'm just gonna do a clean install of windows 11. Also the troubleshooter isn't working, it just takes me to the feedback app.
