Is there a way to remove he constant nag about the fact that my computer
is too old to run Windows 11.

I realized a month ago that I no longer had to fuss with a Windows
update for several days consecutive days at the end of each month.

I am not stupid and don't need to be constantly told my computer will
not run W11

It could be, that adding the same setting as worked in Windows 7,
would be enough to do it.

https://www.intowindows.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Stop-upgrade-to-Windows-10-pic3.png

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
DisableOSUpgrade DWORD 1

If you're on Professional, and have "gpedit.msc"

Computer Configuration >
Administrative Templates >
Windows Components >
Windows Update

"Turn off the upgrade to the latest version
of Windows through Windows Update"

The key might not be present in the Regedit example,
which is why the gpedit.msc is, um, "easier" in some
limited sense.

There was a utility for this too, a third party one.
I just don't remember the name :-)

And if you ask me "I don't want Windows 11 21H2, but I
do want Windows 10 21H2, what can I do". The answer to
that, is to force in the new version of whatever you want,
outside of Windows Update, using the ISO version or if
you feel more comfortable with it, a DVD you made from
a Windows 10 download. I do this all the time, because
I want to be in control of when upgrades occur, and
not some random installation. Run setup.exe off the
media with the new OS on it, to Repair Install. The media
need only be present or mounted, during the first
"copy" phase, where the media is unpacked. After that,
it doesn't matter if the DVD or ISO is visible or not.

I thought I was informed a while ago that Windows 10 21H2 was actually
Windows 11. So why would I want Windows 10 21H2 and how would it update or
could I do that through the cumulative updates?

Windows 10 21H2 and Windows 11 21H2 share a superficial version number
and probably have much of the same code but their GUI is different and,
officially, the operating system is different.

I also should have asked if I am at 21H1 should I find a way to install
21H2?

Download 21H2 DVD image, as "windows.iso", right-click it and
select "Mount", double-click Setup.exe on the resulting DVD drive
on the desktop. Done.

You can use winver.exe that is on most of the Windows OSes,
to check your version.

Well, when you see a thread announcing 21H2 is here/ready/downloading,
then you'll be prepared with a plan. All that's come out so far is
Windows 11. Who knows what Microsoft will do next, really, for Windows 10.

Well, seeing as the Health Check doesn't seem to download
the entire DVD, that would probably be sufficient.

There have been OSes in the past, where the whole thing
downloads, and only then does it check that the install
won't work. I'm trying to avoid that sort of thing. The
"failure to install" I tested here, it did not seem to
download a lot before the dialog appeared saying it won't
work.

:-/

Yes, I remember. Happened with the forced upgrade from 7 to 10. it would
even try to upgrade. I think it would even try again the download in
some cases. The trick was then to configure wifi as expensive connection.

Indeed, appreciated.

It would be fantastic having a regedit variable to block the version
upgrade.

Most people seem to think there won't be any more complete releases of
Windows 10 and staying on Windows 10 will just work exactly like staying
on Windows 10 2004 or 20H2 does with just normal incremental updates
until 21H1 isn't supported any more.

They can do anything they want at this point.

I'm trying to prepare people for whatever happens.

*If* a new Upgrade shows up, just grab the ISO, use Setup.exe, done.

I don't work there, and can't tell you what silly thing will happen next.
