Do you know how to remove Windows updates ?
Go to Windows update, find "Update history" and look for KB5026372.
Uninstall it and wait for re-install (will be automatic).

See here (in the middle of the contribution) : https://www.askvg.com/get-the-lates...ey-are-available-toggle-option-in-windows-11/
and https://www.windowslatest.com/2023/...sues-in-windows-11-kb5026372-may-2023-update/

You can also reinstall it manually : https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5026372 (but I would'nt do that, because Microsoft may have changed it meanwhile and this link is to the old version).

Starting with Windows 11 build 22621.1635, Microsoft added a new "Get the latest updates as soon as they are available" toggle under Settings > Windows Update. When you turn it on, Microsoft will prioritize your device to get the latest non-security updates and enhancements when they are available for your device. Some of these updates may also be available in Optional updates to manually install if not available to automatically download and install from Windows Update.

Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't work.

I've searched and via Microsoft support gave me this selection;

are you logged on to Microsoft Account or Local Account? because Local Account has some limitations to access updates and Windows features ..
