Windows 11 KB5055627 is now rolling out to everyone as an optional update on Windows 11 24H2, and it’s one of the biggest releases because it adds “Recall AI” on Copilot+ PCs, but there is some new stuff for regular PCs. Microsoft has also posted direct download links for KB5055627 .msu offline installers on Update Catalog.

This update is titled “2025-04 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5055627),” and it’s not supposed to download or install automatically.

As shown in the above screenshot, you’ll need to manually select “Download and install” under the update to install it. Windows 11 24H2 will advance to Windows 11 Build 26100.3915. If you’re not seeing the update via Windows Update or have run into installation issues, you can download the April 2025 Update from Update Catalog.
