How to get Windows 10 21H2?
If Windows Update don't want to deliver 21H2 u can force update your OS with Media Creation Tool from Microsoft that let's you create a ISO or USB of last Windows 10 version.
I have 2 desktops and 1 laptop stuck on 21H1 and I still wait for 21H2 to be delivered through WU.
 
I still have not updated to 21H2. Not sure if there is any good reason to do so.
