Windows 10 updating itself to Windows 11

This is happening now on one of my VMs (Build 19044.1266). I don't know why other than that I had updated until there were no Win 10 more updates:

Is it enrolled in the insider program?

Hello,
Win 11 upgrade is offered in Release Preview channels if the machine meets the requirements, but the update is optional on my machines. Maybe you clicked on download/install without realizing it ?.
Unless VM makes it behave differently it should not be automatic upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 it should be optional.

I think that you are right about my actually choosing it.

You can always roll back.

Or use an image.

Thanks I am going to leave it as is. VMs are cheap! Also my real machine has Windows 10 and I am not planning to replace that any time soon.
