New Release Preview Channel builds for Windows 10
So, if you are already running Windows 10 version 21H2, KB5005611 will be offered to you automatically. Or, you can seek the upgrade to version 21H2 the old fashion way, via the Windows Update section in your Settings app. SPONSORED However, this will only work for you if you were moved from the Beta Channel to the Release Preview Channel because your PC did not meet the hardware requirements for Windows 11, so keep that in mind.
