A recent mandatory security update for Windows 11 23H2, known as KB5046633, has triggered an unexpected notification for many users. The update left users scratching their heads after an end-of-support message started showing up.
Users who installed the update reported a peculiar notification from the Windows Update service. The message erroneously warns that Windows 11 23H2 is approaching its end of support and prompts users to download a newer version of Windows to stay current.
This message understandably caused confusion, as Windows 11 23H2 is officially supported until November 11, 2025, with a full year of security and feature updates still expected.
In response to this, a Microsoft support representative confirmed to Windows Latest that the message is indeed a bug. "This is just a reporting bug on our side," the representative explained. Microsoft stated it is actively investigating the issue and plans to resolve it through a server-side update, likely to be deployed within a week.
