when windows 11 26h2 release i can't wait

Hi عمر العوض 1,

Just to add a bit of context, Microsoft typically releases Windows 11 feature updates once per year, usually in the second half of the calendar year. At the moment, there hasn’t been any official announcement of a version 26H2 or any confirmed features associated with it.

If you’d like to stay up to date, you can keep an eye on the official Windows 11 release health, where any new versions or announcements will be posted.

I hope this helps!

Best regards.

There is no information in the provided material about a Windows 11 version called 26H2.

The latest details available describe:

• Windows 11 version 25H2 (OS build 26200) with ongoing monthly updates and hotpatches.
• Windows 11 version 26H1 (OS build 28000), which is a hardware-optimized release that will come preinstalled only on select new devices starting in early 2026 and is not offered as an in-place feature update for existing devices.

The documentation states that devices running Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2 will continue to receive monthly security, quality updates, and new features according to the normal servicing timelines. It does not mention a 26H2 release, nor any specific new taskbar or AI features tied to such a version.

Any “Windows 12” or “26H2” rumors discussed elsewhere are not reflected in this official material.
