Windows 11 23H2 - How to force upgrade with Enterprise SKU

 
If you're using a Windows 11 Enterprise SKU, you may not automatically receive 23H2 update right now. Even if you enable the "Get the latest updates as soon as they're available" and then check for updates, the Feature Update may not be available today.

This was the easiest and fastest way to upgrade my machine from 22H2 to 23H2 and for obvious reasons it's fine for an isolated upgrade, and not for an enterprise-wide rollout. For that kind of scenario you should use Windows Update for Business; VLSC; etc.

So, just follow these steps:

  1. Download Windows 11 Installation Assistant from here
  2. Double-click, next, next next
  3. Wait....
  4. Done!
Don't be afraid because this will upgrade your Windows version and not wipe out your disk.
After the upgrade, open Windows update and install the latest quality update, which for the moment I'm writing this article is this one: 
2023-10 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5031455)
