    I have Windows 11 ARM installed as a VM on Parallels on my Mac, and also Windows 11 (Intel) installed on my Surface Go 2. Both devices received the Windows 11 KB5006674 update today. My Windows 11 ARM build is now 22000.258.

    So it looks like we of the ARM persuasion are indeed getting updates from Microsoft!

    When I select System>about, under "Windows specifications" it shows:
    "Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22000.258.0"
    Does this mean that I am a "regular Windows user" now?

    I also got the following update - interesting it says for "arm64 based systems".
    2021-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for arm64-based Systems (KB5006674)

    • On the windows 11 download page if you click the + next to "privacy" you can select "more download options".
    • You can then click the link which says "Visit the Windows Insider site to download Insider Preview builds"
    • After then signing in with your insider account details, there is a link on the right hand side of the page which says "Windows 11 on ARM Insider Preview"
