How easy is it to move to Windows 11, version 25H2? As easy as a quick restart if you're on version 24H2! Today, Windows 11, version 25H2 became available to the Windows Insider community, in advance of broader availability planned for the second half of 2025. Get ready for a reset of the 36-month support lifecycle for Enterprise and Education editions and the 24-month lifecycle for Pro, Pro Education, and Pro for Workstation editions!

As easy as restarting: The benefits of the shared servicing branch​

Over the years, you've experienced regular optimizations to the development and servicing of each version of Windows. Your installations are faster, and your experiences are more seamless. That's because combined servicing stack updates (SSUs) with latest cumulative updates (LCUs) have reduced package size by 40%.

One of the most significant improvements that make these benefits possible is the Windows shared servicing branch. This capability applies the same technology used for the monthly update process to the annual feature updates. For you, it's a familiar, fast, and reliable update experience.

This process is called "feature updates via servicing," and the updates are implemented through enablement packages (eKB). An eKB is an update package that helps update a device to the next version of Windows with a single restart that reduces downtime.

Note: Not all Windows versions share the same servicing branch. The first update that used this process was from Windows 10, version 1903 to Windows 10, version 1909. To learn more, download and read the whitepaper Windows updates and the shared servicing model.


Moving from Windows 11, version 24H2 to version 25H2​

Windows 11, version 24H2 and version 25H2 use a shared servicing branch. Here's what this means for your update experience.

New features we develop for Windows 11, version 25H2 are part of the version 24H2 branch. When the new code is complete, we include it in the monthly LCUs for Windows 11, version 24H2 in a Disabled state. Think of it as having the new feature code slowly staged on devices running version 24H2—yet another reason to stay up to date with monthly Windows updates!

The code remains disabled on the device until it receives the eKB. The eKB changes flags in the staged code from Disabled to Enabled. When you restart the device, the new features become enabled, and you're officially on Windows 11, version 25H2!

Find Windows 11 Version Number

This tutorial will show you how to find and see what the version number of the installed Windows 11 is on your PC. References: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/windows11-release-information https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-insider/flight-hub/ Version Build...
www.elevenforum.com www.elevenforum.com

Windows 11, version 24H2 and version 25H2 share the same source code, with only the additional features turned on. Therefore, there should be no impact on compatibility between the two. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't test, but you can focus your tests on the new features rather than a full complement of OS, application, or device compatibilities.

Moving from earlier versions to Windows 11, version 25H2​

Since versions earlier than Windows 11, version 24H2 do not share the same servicing branch as Windows, version 25H2, the simple update via an eKB isn't possible. The normal feature update process is the best option. Use Windows Update or Windows Autopatch.

For Windows 10 devices or for new Windows 11 devices that you're deploying, first upgrade them to Windows 11, version 24H2 to make the transition to version 25H2 as simple and quick as possible when it's available.

Stay protected and productive with Windows 11, version 25H2​

Whichever way you get to Windows 11, version 25H2, devices will benefit from a fresh support lifecycle, which begins on the date of its general availability:

Windows 11 EditionLifecycle
Windows 11 Enterprise
Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session
Windows 11 Education
Windows 11 IoT Enterprise		36 months from release date
Windows 11 Pro
Windows 11 Pro Education
Windows 11 Pro for Workstations
Windows 11 Home		24 months from release date

Click to expand...
I'll wait for MS to do the update with the enablement to 25H2 in public build. 😉

I already have 25H2 at higher level on the R.P. channel. 🤷‍♂️

I just tested the 25H2 Enablement package on one of my public Build machines that was at 26100.6588 and it is now up and running at 26200.6588.
Everything seems fine so far. 🤞
The Feature Experience Pack still shows 1000.26100.234.0, I was told that it should update to 26200 after the next cumulative update.

Just to confirm to anyone who may be unsure as to whether or not you can run the 25H2 Enablement Package MSU on unsupported hardware, I just ran it on old HP I had laying around which met all requirements except it has an i3-6100U processor. Took maybe 3 minutes to complete successfully. Running fine with no problems. Hope this helps someone who is unsure if it will work or not.

After several tries at getting 25H2 Release Preview to upgrade over top of Beta Channel 24H2 I finally got it to work today with Windows Update functioning properly afterwards (that was the tricky part). And it has the new Start Menu (see below).
