Applying the December 2024 security update via Windows Update or the Microsoft Update Catalog will resolve the issue and restore the system's ability to accept future security updates

so the solution to it not updating is to go to windows update and update it?

That’s because this situation is only applicable to offline environments where updates would otherwise be deployed manually.

This issue does not affect systems that receive updates directly through Windows Update or the Microsoft Update Catalog.

So, the overwhelming majority of systems and especially all of those used by average consumers.
