About this tag
Platform changes in Windows 11 refer to behind-the-scenes structural updates that lay groundwork for future features rather than introducing visible improvements. Recent Insider builds, such as Canary Build 29560.1000 and Dev Build 26300.7674, emphasize these foundational shifts, including new active development baselines and servicing updates tied to version 25H2.
