Insider Dev Channel resubscribe and new Builds
Good morning, my Windows version is "Windows 11 Pro Insider Preview, Build 26300.7674.ge_prerelease_im.260120-1446".
Due to an internal issue related to the "flighting system" and/or the "ClipSVC system", I can't receive new builds from the Insider Dev channel I was subscribed to, although I can receive updates for this Windows build.
In fact, I'm no longer in the Insider Dev channel and I can't resubscribe.
I've tried downloading several ISOs from the Dev channel for versions higher than my current one, and they all resulted in installation errors.
According to Copilot, the only way to rejoin the Insider Dev channel would be to perform a clean installation of Windows and then subscribe to the channel.
The other option I have is to stay on this version of Windows permanently and continue receiving updates, but not new builds.
Is this diagnosis correct, or are there other ways to resolve this situation?

Reach out to Microsoft Support and provide them with the build number and the error you're experiencing. They may be able to provide a more suitable solution or workaround.
You are no longer subscribed to the Insider Dev channel, and re-subscribing via standard methods is problematic or impossible.
Typically, no. The official and most reliable way to rejoin the Insider Dev Channel if you are no longer enrolled or if your flighting system is broken is to perform a clean install and then re-enroll.
You're on Windows 11 Pro Insider Preview, Build 26300.7674, which is a pre-release build.
Due to internal issues related to flighting system and ClipSVC, you're unable to receive new builds from the Insider Dev channel.
You are no longer in the Dev channel and cannot re-subscribe via normal methods.
Attempts to clean install newer Dev channel ISOs fail with installation errors.
