It sounds like Microsoft is doing away with major annual updates, and instead going for a big, new version of Windows every three years, similar to what used to happen before Windows 10.
Microsoft recently released the first major update for the OS - Windows 11 version 22H2 - but we've heard the next thing on the cards could very well be Windows 12. 5, 2021, over six years after Windows 10 made its debut.

Our hope is that this extension gives our enterprise customers the flexibility they need to continue supporting their workforce, while moving off of Windows 7 as their situation allows. IT teams can also take advantage of Chrome’s existing enterprise capabilities and future roadmap, including our continued investment in cloud management, enterprise security capabilities, and our plans to integrate more closely with the broader ecosystem across the operating system versions. 1 With this extension of support, enterprises with their upgrades still in progress can rest assured that their users remaining on Windows 7 will continue to benefit from Chrome’s security and productivity benefits. But as new priorities for IT teams emerged, we’ve heard that 21% of organizations are still in the process of migrating to Windows 10. Migrating to Windows 10 was a part of many organizations’ roadmap for the year. We’ll continue to evaluate the conditions our enterprise customers are facing, and communicate any additional changes in the future. That’s a 6-month extension from our previously communicated date of July 15, 2021. While the past few months served as a catalyst for technology investments and digital transformation initiatives for many organizations, for others, some planned IT projects may have had to take a back seat.Īfter assessing the current situation, and based on feedback from our valued enterprise customers, Chrome is extending our support for Windows 7 until at least January 15, 2022. Facing difficult business and technology decisions, supporting a changing work environment, and navigating uncertainty are among just a few of the issues IT leaders have faced over the course of 2020. This year has presented a lot of challenges for organizations of all sizes. Editor's note: In order to protect enterprises that are continuing their transition away from Windows 7, Chrome is extending support for Windows 7 through Janufor critical security and stability updates.
