Are you trying to update to 4.4.6 from 4.4.5, or to 5.x from 4.4.5? If only updating to 4.4.6, then you need the "default" channel. If migrating to 5.x then you need "Joomla Next".
Also, in either case, check the "minimum stability" option (on the same page as where you select the 'channel'). It should be noted as something like "Stable" and not "xxx Beta" or "xxx Release Candidate" (or anything other than "Stable").
If you are trying to migrate to 5.x (since your question is in the Migration and Upgrading to Joomla 5 forum) see https://docs.joomla.org/Joomla_4.4.x_to ... ep_by_Step.
The other thing that might prevent the update (4.x to 5.x) from proceeding is a lack of relevant system requirements. From what you have listed in your question, it seems OK.
However to be sure, can you please use the Forum Post Assistant (see the red box at the top of the forum screen under Forum Rules; this script needs to be uploaded to the same folder where Joomla is installed (it is not a Joomla extension).
Run the script from your browser, follow the instructions and paste the generated report into this forum thread. It will give us details of your current joomla install and basic hosting information so we can verify what you have given and what the report tells us is correct).
