"According to Statcounter, the market share of Windows 11 stood at 49.08 percent while Windows 10 was 45.53 percent. The newer OS therefore remains ahead, and the overall trend continues to point toward a Windows 11 future despite a few ups and downs along the way. In the US, Windows 11 continued to grow against Windows 10, with a market share of almost 60 percent, while Windows 10's share dipped below 40 percent."
"Some features will be going away with Windows 11 25H2, notably PowerShell 2.0. However, admins will also be able to remove pre-installed Microsoft Store apps via Group Policy. The presence of the build in the Release Preview channel also provides an opportunity for admins to review the code before it becomes generally available. Unsurprisingly, there was no mention of Windows 12 in the Windows 11 25H2 announcement. Also missing were official figures on the current state of Windows 11 adoption."
Microsoft has released Windows 11 25H2 to Windows Insiders in the Release Preview channel and indicated general availability later this year. The update shares the servicing branch with Windows 11 24H2 and functions primarily as an enablement package that activates already downloaded but inactive features. Some components will be removed, notably PowerShell 2.0. Administrators will be able to remove preinstalled Microsoft Store apps via Group Policy. The Release Preview build allows administrators to review the code prior to general availability. Microsoft did not mention Windows 12 or publish official adoption figures. Statcounter reports Windows 11 at 49.08 percent and Windows 10 at 45.53 percent globally, with Windows 11 near 60 percent in the US while Windows 10 remains dominant in parts of Europe.
