Some users are trapped in the Windows 11 Dev channel and cannot switch to the Beta channel normally

Last week, Microsoft sent a mass email to notify users of the Windows 11 insider preview version that the stability of the Windows 11 development version to be launched in the future may gradually decrease to remind users to pay attention to switching channels.

As the development version, it is normal for various errors and even problems that seriously affect the use of users, because the development version was originally designed to test these known issues.

Microsoft recommends that users who are looking for stability switch to the beta channel because the beta channel has a slower change frequency and only versions with good stability will be pushed.

However, when the user did switch, the user found that the channel was locked and grayed out. No one knew what was going on, but the user could not switch to the beta channel normally at this time.

In addition, the way to modify the channel through the registry and group policy has also failed. For example, after the target channel of the preview version is set as the beta channel through the group policy, the channel switching interface in the system settings application will display the release preview channel.
