Rollout schedule: June 19, 2026: Windows 11, version 26H2 is available to preview through the Windows Insiders Program. Second half of 2026: Windows 11, version 26H2 will be generally available. Impact on your organization: Windows 11, version 26H2 builds on the same platform and servicing approach introduced in prior releases. Therefore, the transition should be easy. For devices running Windows 11, versions 24H2 or 25H2, the update will be offered as a small enablement package instead of a full OS replacement. Remember that devices running Windows 11, version 26H1 won’t be able to update to version 26H2 due to its different Windows core. There will be a path to update those devices to a future Windows release. Action required/recommendations: To prepare, you can validate the update today, use your existing deployment tools and standard deployment rings, as well as stay up to date with monthly updates. You can start previewing Windows 11, version 26H2 today through the Windows Insider Program’s Experimental channel. Learn more and Get ready for Windows 11, version 26H2.
