Windows 24H2 deployment to all Galaxy Pro laptops

BrianW360 — Mon, 18 Nov 2024 22:01:36 GMT

Hello,

It's easier/quicker to ask on here than to call support. Anyone have information on when this will be pushed?

I mounted the .iso and tried installing this but got a "windows protector" error, or something to that effect. I'd rather not mess with the registry.

TIA!!

Can you try downloading it from the Windows 11 Installation Assistant

Would I need to do that if I am already running Win11 23H2???

If you want to manually update to 24H2, you can do it. But if you wanna wait for the official release, it depends on when Microsoft pushes the update. I have manually updated my laptop using the above method.

Curious how the update has been available for the last 45 days, and it appears as an .iso on their site, but they have not pushed it.

Using the PC Health Check, it appears that it only determines whether a computer has the prerequisite system capabilities for the Win11 version. Nothing else.

And like I mentioned, I mounted the .iso for the 24H2 and it came back with the error listed in the OP. So when you say you "manually updated" I'm going to presume that you updated from mounted .iso. I come from the old skool days when we used to have to load Windows from CD's and Floppy disks.

I get this when I try to run the installation assistant. The "learn more" link at the bottom goes to a github link (https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher?tab=readme-ov-file). That's WEIRD!!

Would have to agree as the .iso install gets to about 84% and then slows down and eventually get that "What needs your attention" error.

Still perplexed as to why the install is going to a github link for the explorerpatcher.

Oh well.

I want to be the very last one installing the update. I gutted Windows, stripped out telemetry and their add network. Then skinned it to look like Linux. Copilot has been dead before arrival on my laptop. I can only imagine the amount of remodding I would need to do to stop their predatory tech.
