Still no 24H2 update for my ConceptD 5 CN515-71P
Tinkerer
It's nearing the end of February, 2025. I just wonder what it is about this machine that is preventing the update?

Hi, I advise to wait patiently rather than installing (forcing) the upgrade with a 24H2 ISO image, I once manually installed a Windows10 upgrade and experienced frequent crashes (10-20%), wait till the upgrade is offered by WU. Your W10 device is from 2020 and there have been no BIOS updates released by Acer since then so there may be a compatibility issue.

You can manually upgrade to Windows 11 24H2 using different methods here @ How to upgrade to Windows 11 Version 24H2. After upgrading to this version make sure that you update windows update to its last OS build: 26100.3194, it’s a very simple thing to do. good luck and hope this helps you out.

I've decided to give it a month or so before I try to manually download 24H2 update.
Even if it has problems, it's really no problem because I use Macrium Reflect to automatically do incremental daily drive images to two 12TB USB drives. It takes less than 20 minutes to re-image my system SSD back to it's original 23H2 system.
Nothing like the peace of mind that no matter how badly I screw up the system, I can revert to the image date and time of my choice almost instantly. I don't know why everyone doesn't do this.

Yes, the Macrium Reflect Windows boot menu that enables direct access to the Macrium Windows PE recovery environment without the need to burn a DVD or USB Flash drive is a very easy way to recover a crashed OS, I've been using this same backup for years and since Macrium released, as its a very efficient way of restoring your OS.

Yes. Quick and efficient, and I only need to pick which incremental file to restore to. I can take it all the way back to Windows 10 if I want to. Been using Reflect since 2015.

Ha, yes, I think I've been pretty patient, more than usual, lol. In about a week I'm going to install 24H2 though, to see what happens, if anything. I'm just waiting for when I have two or three hours to spare, in case I have to revert to 23H2 after testing the installation for issues.
