Windows 10 21H2 Release Date?

[FN-GM]

Does anyone know have any information on the release of 21H2 please?

 

I could do with getting this into service for a couple of reasons.

 

1. We are expected lots of new devices to arrive in the next few weeks.

2. Christmas will be an ideal time to upgrade the rest of the fleet.

 

Thanks

It's already on release preview channel so guessing it'll still be soon unless anything major is found as it's still showing as the November update

Yeah it's sometime this month. It would be nice if it was released today to coincide with patch tuesday.

Does anyone know have any information on the release of 21H2 please?

 

With rollout of 21H2, Microsoft moves Windows 10 to annual updates

 

Microsoft also is making 21H2 available starting today to admins using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), Windows Update for Business, the Software Download Center/Media Creation Tool and the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC). AS of today, the promised Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC (Long Term Servicing Channel) 2021 release also is available. This edition will be supported for five years, rather than 10, as Microsoft previously acknowledged.

Looks like all the 21H1 updates are re-released too as suddenly got a few dozen appearing again in SCCM (I decline all the ones we don't want to tidy up the console), so guessing if anyone's sticking to that it's still worth updating your deployments

The Windows 10 21H2 (Build 19044.1288 - 2011.11) ISO is available via Rufus tool too, if wanted (another) quick / simple way to obtain.

Im pressed with the install time. Set SCCM to install in the background. upon reboot, It look less than 2 minutes to complete the installation!
