The online update for R2022b Update 4 is NOT offered by TMW.
Workaround : do the offline installation.
Risk: you need to uninstall your current MATLAB version, if any. So be aware if this procedure goes wrong.
Go the TMW and dowload the installer, make sure the version is R2022b Update 4
Launch the installer, enter your license information (User, password, lenceses number)
When you arrive at Destination step, click on Advances Options drop down box and select Download Without Intalling
Then click Next. When it finishes, go to the download destination folder navigate inside MathWorks\R2022b\2023_* until you see the file setup.exe. Double click and follow the installation procedure.
After the installation ends, launch MATLAB and check the right version and test if it runs fine
If it's OK you can cleanup by deleting the installer files (matlab_R2022b_win64.exe on Windows) and the folder MathWorks in Destination folder and perhaps some _tmp folders left out by the installer.

Since I guesstimate R2023 will be available in about 2 weeks, I can only second that advice.

Closer to a month. The "a" releases are released very close to the beginning of spring.

This works (as I discovered earlier today in another thread) —
In Windows 11 File Explorer, drill down and then click on:
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2022b\bin\win64\update_installer.exe
(or copy that and run it from the Command Prompt) and everything works perfectly. Nothing else needs to be done. (MATLAB R2022b Update 5 is current.)

Yes, the update_installer.exe is good trick.
Here is the official offline update instruction
IFAIK if user omits the option -updatepackage package_folder it will download the latest update from the internet, instead of installing the predownloaded package.

This is not true. If users download the installer now, one get the R2022B Update 4.

It doesn’t work when I try it (using the above link). It’s still a dead link.
How did you manage it?

I don't know if this will be helpful, but I was just notified through MATLAB today about Update 5. I was able to install it using the Bell notification.

I guess if you are using Update3 all successive updates will not showed up.
As discussed elsewhere the best way is to run (if you are under WIndows)
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2022b\bin\win64\update_installer.exe

The update_installer is also not a Windows exclusive. It appears on Linux and Mac as update_installer.sh.
