New Update Senior Microsoft exec confirms Windows 11 24H2 isn't available to download for everyone yet [Update]

[Gandalf_The_Grey]

Microsoft has seemingly started rolling out Windows 11 2024 feature update, version 24H2 to everyone. Neowin friend and colleague Steven Parker noticed that he got updated to the new feature update with KB5039239 (build 26100.863).

The weird thing is he is not on a Copilot+ PC so it looks like Microsoft is releasing it to everyone now. As you can see in the image below, it is a Ryzen 9 6900HX which does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC (it does not even have an NPU).

In case you are not aware, Microsoft released the 2024 feature update first to Copilot+ PCs which mainly included Arm chips and some AMD64 (AMD and Intel) parts too. Like this one, the update was pushed under KB5039239 and build 26100.863. It is available for manual downloading on Microsoft's Update Catalog website.

Microsoft has started releasing Windows 11 24H2 to everyone. Hence, even if you are not on a Copilot+ PC, you should soon be able to have it.

Update, September 3, 2024: A senior Microsoft official has confirmed that Windows 11 24H2 is not yet out to users with non-Copilot+ PCs. To understand what was going on, Neowin reporter Taras Buria reached out to Brandon LeBlanc, who is the Senior Program Manager of the Windows Insider Program Team, on X.

What if I already have it, should I uninstall it?

No, I don't think so, it is already out for copilot+ devices.
I have 24H2 build 26100.1591 installed and it is working fine.
