This is for those who have managed to get into the free ESU program, as today (15th October) is the first day without official support if you aren't in the program.
Earlier today I downloaded the updates on the screenshot below:
The whole process took 2 hours 38 minutes from download to desktop, so they make you wait.

Got the new Windows PC healthcheck software the other day which informs me that my CPU isn't compatible with Windows 11; a TPM module is available, but there doesn't seem to be much point in getting one. I'm wondering how many people have had their computers (running W11 unofficially) affected by this.

I haven't heard of any problems so far. Here's a recent video explaining how to instal without TPM

If you need a Windows 10 22H2 ISO, it may be wise to create a USB installation stick, before it's gone forever.

Had nothing but problems with this update; took ages for nothing to happen followed by a crash on 100% installed, along with more faffing about with error messages. Windows (10) doesn't tell you its automatically installing stuff. Took well over 6 hours to sort out. I downloaded several stand alone installers from the security catalog (x32 and ARM) then the x64 (correct) version. Windows Update then installed it successfully, wasting even more time.

I had problems with this - it came up with several error messages, refusing to install. After trying again, it completed the download successfully. However, after sticking on 100% for several minutes, I got a BSOD and tried it again. The process started again and seemed to have passed off without any problems but stopped on 35% updated, and Windows seemed to boot up normally. It ran normally, but there was no desktop, just a black screen.
Explorer was running normally, but still no desktop, I fired up Task Manager (which ran normally) to see what was going on. The desktop folder was intact, so nothing was wrong with the file system. I tried resetting the graphics (CTRL-shift-Windows key and B; the screen flickers and you get a beep) which didn't work. I ran sfc /scannow and DISM fix image. The desktop eventually worked and the whole process took 5½ hours...
