Does this "update" only concern/affect clean installs and possibly In-Place upgrades?

Will Microsoft "FORCE" this on us, or will we have an option to choose.???

This site offers a better explanation:
Just a moment...
Particularly this excerpt:
"So what this update does is to prepare a Windows 10 device to move to Windows 11 right from the initial setup screen. In other words, when you purchase a new Windows 10 device, the computer connects to the Internet, checks for updates, and then downloads the newly-released KB5020683.
Once this update lands on the device, it starts the upgrade to Windows 11, so you no longer have to complete the initial setup of Windows 10 and then switch to the new operating system by downloading large updates (which obviously takes a lot of time anyway)."
Hope this helps others who may have been confused by "Out of Box Experience update".

Not at all concerned about getting Windows 11 sneaked onto my computers since I disabled TPM on them. I suggest that anybody wanting to avoid a sneak Windows 11 attack by Microsoft do the same.
