Microsoft has confirmed that the Windows 11 2025 Update — formally Windows 11, version 25H2 — is rolling out broadly to eligible devices, but this year’s release behaves much more like a deliberate operational milestone than a headline-grabbing redesign: it’s primarily an enablement package that...

Microsoft has begun a phased rollout of the Windows 11 2025 Update (version 25H2) for Surface devices, and for most Surface owners the upgrade path will be conservative, telemetry-driven, and — for machines already on Windows 11, version 24H2 — surprisingly lightweight thanks to Microsoft’s...
