When trying to download Lightroom, I'm being told to complete the install , I have to update my Operating System to Windows 11 (version 21H2 or later). My operating system is Windows 11, version 23H2. How can I fix this?

A Windows re-boot and replacing set-up files has fixed this. Thank you for your help

don't use the opera browser for your default browser, at least when trying to download anything from adobe. also:

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
