    I guess something is very wrong with my install.

    Professional Plus 2021 Retail.

    It installs version 15225.20288, and won't find any other updates.

    If I manually point the C2R client to 15330.20196, it finds the new build and upgrades...

    However, next time I check for updates, it rolls back to 15225.20288. WTH?

    Windows 11.

    Weird, unless MSFT has somehow pulled the update, don't know what's going on.

    Tried clean installing Office from the 4GB IMG file.
    It refuses to update beyond 15225.20288.

    (As in it can't find any updates unless I explicitly point it to the newer build...).

    I also lost the Visual Refresh.

    I was wondering because I usually perform the update manually, but this time the downgrade seems to have been done without my concent !!
    I will re-check my settings..

    My office 365 downgraded to 2205 2 days ago, today it updated to 2206 15330.20230. I am getting the "not genuine banner". used KMS_VL_ALL to activate MONDO about a year ago.

    Are you still sure that there is only one Office installed on your computer or are there more?
