Unable to upgrade to 22.04 from 20.04 [duplicate]

I want to upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 from 20.04.4 LTS, but upon running the software updater, it only gives me the option to upgrade to 21.10 and not 22.04 LTS. I have tried both the command line and the GUI ways, but to no avail. Most online guides say that to upgrade to 22.04 from 20.04 before August, you need to set the Software & Updates application to check for any new version, instead of just LTS, is this true, and can I upgrade without losing my files to 22.04 right now?

Apparently there are some bugs that will take a couple of days to fix for the 20.04 to 22.04 update to work so it is disabled. I wanted to check out one of my systems today so updated 20.04 to 21.10 then updated 21.10 to 22.04
