Well, the big day is finally here! The world’s most popular operating system, Windows 10 that is, has just been refreshed. The Windows 10 2022 Update is now officially in the house.
Microsoft has started rolling out the latest feature update for this OS as an enablement package for those who are sticking with this good old version of Windows. They can get their hands on it as long as they are running Windows 10 version 2004 and above.
The official changelog for Windows 10 22H2 is not live yet, even though the update is.
But don’t expect much from this release, which most would be hard-pressed to label a feature update. Only a limited set of productivity features, like some printer improvements, are on offer in this new version.
And that too, to keep parity with these features between the two platforms, Windows 10 and 11.
Then again, Microsoft has been on record saying that the latest Windows 10 release will have a limited set of features focused on productivity and management, so there’s that.
Unfortunately, this is everything we currently know about this newest release for the Windows 10 OS.
It does bump up support, however.
Regular customers running the Home and Professional editions of the Windows 10 2022 Update will receive 18 months of support, while commercial customers with Enterprise and Education editions will receive 30 months of servicing.
Should tide us by until October 14, 2025, which is the date when at least one version of Windows 10 will remain supported. This also means that Windows 10 users can expect similar updates to be released in the future.
If you want to install the Windows 10 2022 Update, you can click the Check for Updates button in the Update and Security section of the Settings app. Simply download and install when your computer detects the update.
An alternate route is also available in the newly updated Media Creation Tool, which can be used to download ISO files for a clean install or an in-place upgrade.
