That\u2019s based on recent reports citing Windows Central\u2019s Zac Bowden and detailing the change.<br \/>\nNow, Windows has not been on a three-year release cycle for some time now. The update cycle for Windows 10 was approximately two releases per year. While Windows 11, released just last year, was slated to receive one major update per year. That\u2019s in addition, of course, to smaller security-related updates.<br \/>\nWill Microsoft still release a major update before Windows 12 in 2024?<br \/>\nThe biggest implication of the alleged change, which still hasn\u2019t been announced by Microsoft, is that users wouldn\u2019t be getting a major version update for Windows 11. Instead, sources report that update has been scrapped and Microsoft will wait until Windows 12 to release the next big set of changes in 2024. And that pushes the next major update back by at least a couple of years.<br \/>\nThe company had reportedly previously expected to update Windows 11 with a big update next year.<br \/>\nNone of this means that users can\u2019t expect any new features at all. Microsoft will still almost certainly continue releasing those in the lead-up to 2024. Those won\u2019t necessarily be any less impactful either. Previous \u2018minor\u2019 updates have included everything from support for Android apps to subsystem changes.<br \/>\nWhile those types of changes aren\u2019t considered to be \u201cmajor\u201d updates, they still bring a lot to the table for end-users. So this change doesn\u2019t signal Microsoft shifting to a more user-unfriendly cycle. Instead, it points to an alteration that should give the tech company more time to finalize major changes before they arrive. That\u2019s in terms of polish, stability, and usability.<br \/>\nMoreover, spacing out the big updates most likely won\u2019t alter the update cycle for those intended to fix bugs. Such as those related to security, privacy, and other key areas.<br \/>\nThe post Microsoft Reportedly Returns To 3 Year Cycle With Windows 12 In 2024 appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/00-how-to-hide-taskbar-windows-11-DG-AH-2021.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft will return to a three-year cycle for its big Windows updates, starting with Windows 12 slated to arrive in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":9840,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9839","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9839"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9839\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9841,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9839\/revisions\/9841"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9840"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9839"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9839"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9839"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
