Comment on Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin
cerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 hours agoThat was always a dumb statement. Microsoft had two places to go from there. Either iterate and keep the name like Mac OS X was doing (10, 10.1, 10.2 and so on) or go to 11… like macOS also did (after a while).
They were never gonna release a version of Windows called Windows 10 and never update it or improve upon it (as they see it).

They had iterations already, like 22h2 or whatever.

They used to be called service packs.

Major builds. They used to be YYMM (from 1507 to 2004), and changed to half a year at the end - 22H2 is the Windows 10 build for the second half of 2022.
In total, there were fourteen of these, with 22H2 being the final one.
