- Comment on Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS 2 weeks ago:
The report appears to have originated from PCWorld, but has gained mass attention on Reddit with over 12,000 upvotes and thousands of angry comments. The good news is the report is false. According to contacts that are familiar with the Windows roadmap, there is no plan to ship a Windows 12 this year. In fact, I understand that the Windows roadmap for 2026 is all about fixing Windows 11 and attempting to improve its reputation by addressing top feedback such as reducing AI bloat across the OS, bringing back the movable Taskbar, and more.

There’s lots of other claims the report makes that are also easy to debunk. The codename Hudson Valley is from 2023 and not tied to a Windows 12, the “radically redesigned” UI claims are just based on a leaked concept from 2022 that was never greenlit to ship, and a subscription-based version of Windows has been rumored to be around the corner since 2012.
