Windows 11 24H2 Release Date Postponed, Yet October Launch Still Possible

The anticipated release date for Windows 11 24H2 was initially suggested to be October 8 in a revised blog post by Microsoft. However, the tech giant from Redmond has postponed it to a later date in October.

The blog post now states:

After the media erroneously declared October 8 as the official launch date for Windows 11 24H2, Microsoft subsequently added a clarification, stating:

There were speculations that Microsoft might hold off on releasing the next version of Windows this year (including reports of Windows 12) and would instead concentrate on rolling out the next significant update for Windows 11, now confirmed to be 24H2.

So, when can we expect the release? Most likely in October. Windows 11 24H2, often referred to as the Windows 2024 update, will introduce numerous enhancements, including an improved Quick Settings interface and a reimagined Copilot experience for Windows.

Editor’s note 9.18.2024 – The dates mentioned below refer to our routine monthly servicing updates for supported versions of Windows 11 and are not related to the general availability of Windows 11, version 24H2.

The transition to the Microsoft 365 app as the main access point for Microsoft Copilot is set to occur soon. Updates will begin rolling out to managed PCs starting with the optional non-security preview release on September 24, 2024, followed by the monthly security update release on October 8 for all supported versions of Windows 11. These updates will also be applied to Windows 10 PCs the following month. This will replace the existing Copilot feature in the Windows experience.
