Acer has a full set of Windows 11 drivers for your SP314-54N model, so the issue must be with either Microsoft or your Windows profile. Do you get other automatic updates?
Run the Update Troubleshooter: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-update-troubleshooter-19bc41ca-ad72-ae67-af3c-89ce169755dd#WindowsVersion=Windows_10
Click on Check for updates frequently and make sure you don't have any rogue drivers in Device manager, uninstall all yellow exclamation marks and Unknown Devices in Device Manager. As per the comment above: Did you get the Windows10 update from last Tuesday 11/12 July OK?

Hi all,
Did all the process that I can, But the still did not get the update.
I'm getting all the windows 10 updates. once I chat with windows team that they told the product manufacture is ready to install the win.11 it will show in the update section.
I'm planning to reset the windows if not work all other processes."
Any suggestions?
"A safeguard hold is currently in place on your device. Details are not available at this time. When the update is available, you’ll see it on the Windows Update page in Settings."
Above is the message coming from the windows side when they check through the Safeguard holds. :-( I'm feeling so sad with ACER even they don't have direct email system or chat portal.
Previously I used DELL and they provide really good service.
Best way to get Win-11 is to first backup your existing Win-10 personal files and do a Clean Install of Win-11 with this Win-11 .ISO from this link as upgrading from Win-10 is not a full install and does create allot of bugs, and as you will experience that you will have to eventually do a clean install of Win-11 anyway if you do an upgrade only, do the below installation as that is the best way to install Win-11.
Note: Before you start the Win-11 installation, have a copy of the unzipped IRST (Intel® Rapid Storage Technology) Driver Version: 17.8.0.1065 on a separate USB, so that and after you have deleted the SP314-54N laptops M.2 boot drive (so that all Win-10 traces of data is cleared out completely from the boot drive) you need to install this driver and then Format the M.2 SSD boot drive so that the SP314-54N laptops M.2 boot drive is recognized so you can proceed with the Win-11 installation. To install Win-11 from a .ISO file do the below:
This option is for users that want to create a bootable installation media (USB flash drive, DVD) or create a virtual machine (.ISO file) to install Windows 11. This download is a multi-edition ISO which uses your product key to unlock the correct edition.
Installation instructions (ISO):
Be aware that a clean install like that will remove all your Acer specific apps, so is only recommended as a last resort. A safeguard hold means you are in a business or school environment and your IT department has blocked the update. You need to contact them to remove the hold before the update will happen automatically.
No this is my personal laptop.
I have to try reset the windows 10 and see. If the issue remaining I'll do clean installation.
Has it ever been joined to a domain or configured for use in a school?
No, never.
I guess some bugs or any setting mistakenly changed
@Widyan did you try using the Windows 11 installation assistant? It will try to find the latest Windows 11 update and upgrade from Windows 10 without needing to reset everything.
I remember one Microsoft person asked me to install that and check but it says the same when update available it will popup.
Yeah, use the update assistant and choose download now.
Great thanks I'll try. But only can try it in this weekend.Doing
Let us know how well it works.
Thanks all,
Through the install assistant able to upgrade to Win.11 and all the Apps that I have installed is there as well.
Do anyone know that how can I delete the old windows files safely
Yes, though the easiest way to do that is to use Disk Cleanup, then Cleanup System Files.
Tried that and manually clean the %tremp% as well.
Thanks for replying. I tried it several times. But it seems to be installed apps using much space here.
