T480 never offered update to Windows 11 24H2

#1 Post by cage » Wed Nov 12, 2025 3:10 pm

Has anyone been offered Windows 11 24H2 by Windows update? 23H2 ended support on 2025-11-11 and I still see nothing popping up.

Yeah I have.
Strange why you haven't.

You can update to 24H2 through the standalone installer though

If your T480 is not fully compatible with Windows 11 and 23H2 was installed through the registry workaround, then all later feature updates can only be installed manually.
