Microsoft is already working on another update for Windows 11. It is expected to be released in early 2025 and will make a small number of changes.
What exactly has happened? While nothing is yet known about the exact adjustments of the update, a first indication of it was found for the year 2025.
In detail: Twitter user Albacore, known for his technical analysis, found the clue in an internal Microsoft test version.

It is not known whether this update will continue the series of so-called Moment Updates
updates. What is certain is that this update will make minor changes to the system, as was the case with the first Moment update.
Microsoft has released one Moment Update in 2024 . No others are planned for 2024. Moment Update 5 contains the following improvements, among others:
- Uninstallation of pre-installed products such as Microsoft Edge in the EU.
- Support for USB with 80 Gbit/s.
- Advanced snap layouts function.
Windows 11 version 24H2 will make major changes. The following changes are already confirmed:
- Focus on Artificial Intelligence and Copilot.
- Improved voice quality.
- Support for Sudo.
- Updates for apps such as Notepad or Microsoft Teams.
Windows in 2025 Every year, Microsoft releases a major update for Windows 11. These feature updates often make major changes to the operating system. The Moment updates in question, on the other hand, only make minor changes. The leak gives an indication that Microsoft could continue this approach in 2025.
It is certain that another major update is due at the end of 2025. In addition to a regular feature update for Windows 11, which will probably be version 25H2, Microsoft could also release Windows 12.
Speculation: Whether the name of the possible Windows 11 successor is really Windows 12 remains to be seen.
