    Hi,

    It's a gradual update, so be patient, otherwise, you can download and perform a in-place upgrade, tick the box fo "Keep my files and settings", anyway, all the information you need are in this link, go through it and get familiarise yourself with the procedure:

    It's almost always best to wait for Microsoft to get around to releasing it for your system, rather than doing a manual forced update…

    Hi,

    Windows 11 24H2 is extremely defective and full of bugs!

    As suggested earlier, wait for new releases. Unless you want to ruin your computer.

    It's time to say "goodbye" to the Acer Community. I'll be ending my participation soon. Thank you all! 👋😉

    Hi, not recommended to manually download the generic ISO file of 24H2, contrary to what you may read, Windows11 24H2 is running great, without any issues other than some Linux and game applications that won't work, it even runs a bit faster than 23H2, but you will have to wait till the version is tailored to your system and offered by WU, holidays delayed all MS upgrades, update your BIOS to version 1.09 dated 2024/11/05 and wait like suggested above. I use two 2023 laptops and both were recently upgraded to W11 24H2, one is an Acer Swift X SFX14-51G-7003.

    Very likely a forced update will work fine, even though Microsoft hasn't released it yet for your model. They do the testing before pushing it to you, but often the software is fully ready before they get around to running the tests. The risk is that one or more of your devices will not as expected, so maybe the camera won't be recognized or the fingerprint reader won't see your fingerprint.
