Then again, by announcing Windows 11, the company already damaged its credibility as Windows 10 was supposed to be the last Windows version ever.

Microsoft’s shift back to a three-year update cadence could expose the incoherence behind its repeated changes in strategy. Google’s ChromeOS is designed with the same approach.įor Windows 12, Bowden said that the OS is being called Nexy Valley and that it is under “early planning and engineering stages.” As part and parcel of feature upgrades, Windows systems increasingly have cloud services such as OneDrive, Office, etc., bundled within the OS.Ī long-time Windows user may question the need for such remote services integrated into the OS. What’s a tad disconcerting is the increasing use of the term “client” instead of “workstation” as terminology for Windows machines. However, feature release isn’t something that should concern administrators, considering they already handle security updates on a monthly basis. The increased frequency for existing versions could mean more work for IT and system administrators.

As per the new schedule, 22H2 is slated for release in the September-October period though the 23H2 release is completely scrapped. If the Windows Central report is accurate, some of the features scheduled to be released as part of the 23H2 (Sun Valley 3) update will be shipped in 22H2 (Sun Valley 2). This is quite different from last year, when Microsoft said it would release a big-bang OS update in the year’s second half. However, Microsoft will reportedly continue to roll out feature updates for existing Windows versions roughly once every quarter, internally called Moments. Consequently, Microsoft’s next major version release, Windows 12, may arrive in 2024 instead of the previously scheduled 2023 (Sun Valley 3). This indicates that Windows 12 could arrive in 2024, a year later than scheduled.Īccording to Windows Central’s Zac Bowden, Microsoft will now adopt a three-year release cycle to push out major Windows upgrades. Just a year after Microsoft adopted a yearly update cadence for the Windows operating system, the company is reportedly switching back to the three-year update cycle.
