Can't Update to PS 24, LR 12 - Says My Windows 10 Incompatible

I can't update to the new version of Lightroom, and Photoshop because CC Desktop says they are not compatible with my version of Windows 10 which is version 2004 (Build 19041) even though it's a newer release than the 'minimum requirement' version 1909.

Anyone else having this problem? what's causing it?

if you see anything older than version 21H2 build 19044, update your windows.

Ty.

It's not necessary to update from 19044, is still supported.

I saw that 20H2 is not supported anymore.

Hi,

can u perhaps upload a msinfo32 file ?

 

Is LR 12 = Lightroom 12 ?

I can't see any Lightroom 12 version under adobe.com. The system requirements for Lightroom is just 20H2 not 2004.

I have the same issue. CC app says "1809 required". I have 1909. Reset of CC does nothing to change this.

reset the cc desktop app: make sure it's in the foreground, then press:

Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
Mac: Cmd + Opt + R

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried it but it hasn't made any difference. See attached to see the 'not compatible' flag and the 'update required' message I get. As previously noted I have a later version of Windows 10 than the one called for here.
