My settings only has "For developers",without "Advanced"

In the Settings app, I can only see the “For developers” section under System—there’s no “Advanced” section shown.

Amm, could this be related to the following:

In order to see the Advanced page in Windows settings, you need to be on the Windows Insider Program Dev or Beta channel.

Im on the Dev Insider Channel. Nothing in the settings page shows any changes. The page title only states "For Developers". "Advanced Settings" Does display as installed under system components. The linked documentation states you "Must Be On Beta Channel" and does not mention Dev channel at all. Only the announcement in the Feedback Hub states Dev channel availability.

Yep and what's even more annoying is if you are a developer that hates all the insider hiccups, you can't even have DevHome on release builds of Windows now cause since these guys have it on Windows Store it auto updates so then POOF DevHome gone and a useless function in it's place that doesn't show up unless you use a insiders build of Windows (which looking on here looks like that's not even a guarantee). Even the github release on here does nothing unless you are an insider. So if you are a developer on a release build you have to just sit and wait for them to release it......I had everything set up how I like it, then poof. No thought at all when they implement stuff. The sad thing is I use Devhome to fix issues Microsoft creates so it's a ironic another oversight of theirs makes it difficult for me to even fix their other oversights lol. Just release to everyone if you are gonna do this.....

I'm having the same issue with the "Windows Advanced Settings" page not showing up under "Windows Settings." Instead, I have the same default "Developer settings" page. I did a clean install of Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26200.5651 (Dev Channel) and noticed that it had "Dev Home (preview)" UWP package installed instead of "Windows Advanced Settings" UWP package. After going to the Microsoft Store page (https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9n8mhtphngvv?hl=en-US&gl=US), the installed button turned into an update button and allowed me to update "Dev Home (preview)" into "Windows Advanced Settings." I verified that "Dev Home (preview)" was replaced with "Windows Advanced Settings" under "System components" in "Windows Settings." After restarting the PC, I ran SFC and DISM to verify that the OS image was not corrupted but the "Windows Advanced Settings" page was still missing under "Windows Settings" with only "Developer settings" page in place of it.

I'm even on 25h2 and it's still missing. I mean what gives?

i have installed the Windows.DevHome_0.2101.858.0.msixbundle from github ... no change, still for Developers
google found a reference to a thing .. Vivetool, judged to not be spam or virus but some opionions on the net, so i installed it Ifrom GitHUb) and ran it
./vivetool /enable /id:56005157

all i wanted was the File Explorer integration with Git so ..

"For Developers" switched to "Advanced Settings" for all public customers in the September 29 update, which looks like the build number ending in .6725.

For Beta/Dev insiders it was previously enabled, before being briefly disabled around late August, and then reenabled in September.

Which build are you currently on?
