Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11 version 26H2 will be the next feature update and that devices running Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 will be able to upgrade using a small enablement package.

The announcement comes as Microsoft begins testing Windows 11 version 26H2 with Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel.

"The next annual update for Windows 11 is coming soon and is already available to Windows Insiders!," announced Microsoft.

"Windows 11, version 26H2 continues our focus on delivering a predictable, low-disruption update experience for organizations and IT professionals."

Windows releases with an "H2" designation are typically launched during the second half of the year.
