Microsoft has recently announced the removal of a compatibility hold that had been preventing certain PCs from upgrading to the latest version of Windows 11, specifically version 24H2. This development comes as a relief for users who have been unable to update their systems due to the presence of the game Asphalt 8 (Airborne).
Details of the Compatibility Hold
Earlier this week, Microsoft confirmed that the issue related to Asphalt 8 has been resolved, allowing affected PCs to finally proceed with the upgrade. The documentation provided by Microsoft indicates that the hold has been officially lifted, paving the way for users to access the new features and improvements that come with the latest Windows update.
For those whose PCs were impacted by this compatibility issue, it is important to note that the Windows 11 version 24H2 update may take up to 48 hours to become available on their systems. While the exact number of affected devices remains unclear, it is worth mentioning that Asphalt 8 is an older title, having made its debut on PCs back in 2018 during the Windows 8 era.
