Microsoft started the rollout of the Windows 10 November 2021 Update, just like before, the organization isn't making the new version available for all users at the same time.

Instead, the software giant sticks with a phased rollout, meaning computers across the world are becoming the update in phases.

This release model allows Microsoft to spot bugs in their early hours and then block the update from reaching other similar configuration, therefore reducing the impact of the potential glitch in the update.

Downloading the November 2021 Update

The simplest way to download the newly-released update is to just head over to Windows Update for an automatic download and installation.

However, this process is only valid when the update has already been on your device.

"The November 2021 Update can be obtained initially to users with select devices running Windows 10, version 2004 or later who are interested in the latest features and are prepared to install this release on their device. If you'd like to install the brand new release, open your Windows Update settings (Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update) and select Look for updates. Eligible devices can also be offered the option to find the Windows 11 upgrade. When the update appears, you can just select Download and install to get going," Microsoft explains.

Simultaneously, you can also make use of the Windows 10 version of the Media Creation Tool to update a device, though it is obvious this isn't a recommended method because you could bypass potential upgrade blocks and for that reason wind up experiencing various bugs.

Microsoft hasn't shared an ETA as to when the update should become available for all devices out there, but I expect the rollout to succeed quite fast, especially because the November 2021 Update is a small release with only a few improvements under the hood.
