Additional context

I was using Windows 11 (22H2) and attempting to update to 23H2, but Windows Update did not detect the update. To resolve this, I had to manually download and install windows11.0-kb5027397-x64_.msu for windows to see 23H2.

After successfully updating to 23H2, Windows Update did not detect the 24H2 update. To resolve this issue, I had to make manual changes in the Windows Registry:

1. Add a new string value named ProductVersion and set its value to Windows 11.
2. Add another string value named TargetReleaseVersionInfo and set it to 24H2.

These manual steps were required to get Windows to recognize and install the 24H2 update.

I did even try to use the "Reset Windows Update" option under the Config tab, and restarted many times, but none of that didn't make any difference.
