Windows 11 26H2 nears general release after final Preview phase
Microsoft has begun testing Windows 11 version 26H2 in the Release Preview Channel, signaling an imminent general rollout. The update is not a major OS upgrade, shares core components with 25H2, and uses an enablement package to install with a single restart. It resets the support clock to 24 months for consumers and 36 months for commercial users, with feature parity to 25H2 and potential new features arriving alongside, with general availability expected in the coming weeks (typically late September to October).
