Microsoft Windows 10 Major New Versions to be Released Only Once per Year
6:23:24 2019-07-27 1195

Microsoft has announced that it is slowing down the pace at which it releases major new versions of Windows 10. The twice-yearly Windows 10 updates, which have until now introduced significant new features but have also caused some backlash for being disruptive, will turn into alternate major and minor releases. The company is also changing how its Windows Insider testers will be given access to unreleased updates as they are being created, in order to test them and generate feedback. Microsoft will focus on introducing new features with every alternate release while the ones in between will contain minor, potentially invisible changes such as bug fixes and stability improvements.

 

In a series of blog posts spotted by Ars Technica, Microsoft has noted that this new system of primary and secondary updates will allow it to spend more time making sure that each major release is fully baked. This is no doubt partly in reaction to the disastrous October 2018 Update, which had to be halted multiple times and then rolled out in an extremely controlled manner after users reported system crashes, massive bugs, and data loss.

 

Microsoft has also faced criticism that its updates are disruptive and too frequent, sometimes interrupting important work and nagging users to install them. The company has introduced much more granular controls over when and how updates will be downloaded and installed, and has even allowed users to defer updates until their current version of Windows is approaching its end-of-service date. Windows 10 can also now automatically attempt to roll back a failed update.

 

With this new cadence, Microsoft is also changing how its slow and fast Windows Insider rings gain access to beta versions of Windows 10. Users on the slow ring will now only receive major Windows 10 versions and will skip the alternate minor ones, while those on the fast ring will get both. Previously, those in the fast ring received updates first, even if they weren't very stable, while those in the slow ring received fewer, but more polished ones.

 

Starting with the fall 2019 update, these minor versions of Windows 10 will be deployed more like ordinary patches, which won't require a long setup process and will need a maximum of one reboot. This process will apply to those who are already running the Windows 10 May 2019 Update. This next update is currently targeted for September this year, and will be supported for 30 months as opposed to 18 months for most releases.
