Stuck in the insider program

Hi, the safe path depends on your current channel and build number. In Settings > Windows Update > Windows Insider Program, choose "Unenroll this device when the next version of Windows releases" if it is available.

Leaving Dev or Canary immediately usually requires a clean installation because stable Windows cannot be installed over a newer preview build while keeping apps and data. Back up personal files and recovery keys first. Please share the channel and `winver` build so people can tell whether a keep-files route is currently possible.
