Windows 11 24H2 Update Release Date Revealed
Microsoft is preparing to push the next Windows 11 feature update, known as Windows 11 24H2, to PCs beginning next month. The release date was discovered in a Microsoft post, which aligns a new feature in Copilot with the annual Windows 11 feature update release.
The post states that changes will be rolled out to managed PCs starting with the optional non-security preview release on September 24, 2024, and following with the monthly security update release on October 8 for all supported versions of Windows 11. However, Microsoft has clarified that these dates are for regular monthly servicing updates and unrelated to when Windows 11, version 24H2 will be generally available.
Windows 11 24H2 is expected to be a mixed bag of features. Some of the expected features include:
The update will also include the new Outlook web app, which will replace Mail. However, it is unclear whether Mail will get a last-minute reprieve or be cast out into the Microsoft Store.
