As Windows 10 support is about to end in October, more and more users are beginning to turn to Windows 1124H2, which is also the latest version of the current mandatory update.However, Windows 1124H2 has many problems, such as Bluetooth audio failures, file explorer errors, and even system crashes. Many users are waiting for the next major update-25H2.

Recently, Microsoft announced that the Dev channel has entered the 26200 series version, and at the same time closed the window for switching from the Dev channel to the Beta channel. After users install Build 26200.5510, they will no longer be able to switch from the Dev channel to the Beta channel.

According to reports from WindowsLatest,This could be interpreted as Microsoft already working on this year's 25H2 update, although this has yet to be explicitly confirmed.

Microsoft only confirmed that the 26200 series version is based on Windows 1124H2, and did not explicitly mention the Windows 1125H2 version or Windows 112025 update.

But announcements like these on Dev channels are usually a sign that big changes are about to happen.

It's unclear whether the "Windows 1125H2" update is an enablement package (i.e. a cumulative update that activates features that are already present but hidden), or an operating system replacement (e.g. from 23H2 to 24H2).

But the possibility of the latter is relatively low, and enablement packages may be preferred because they are smaller, easier to roll out, and can maintain feature consistency between two Windows versions.

In addition, based on past experience, it is expected that the Windows 1125H2 major update will be released in September or October and will be gradually rolled out before the end of the year.
