Judging from current user feedback, Windows 11 is not getting very good reviews, with many users sticking with Windows 10.
In one place, it says, "Microsoft is Windows 12 It has been reported that "they want to make it a system that is significantly different from Windows 11."
Microsoft releases a new operating system roughly every three years, and it's said that Windows 12 will be released next year in 2024, in line with this cycle.
If a new OS, Windows 12, is released, it may be a very different OS from Windows 11.
It is also said that Windows 12 will apply AI technology extensively.
Of course, all of this is speculation, and there's no information about Windows 12 from Microsoft.
It is unclear whether Windows 11 will be the last OS or whether Windows 12 will be released.
*At one point, it was rumored that Windows 10 would be the last OS, but Windows 11 has been released.
There's a good chance that Windows 12 will be released.
What's new in Windows 12
2023/06/03
New information has come in about Windows 12. (It's just a rumor, so we don't know if it's true.)
- Internal Microsoft developmentコードネームIs "next valleyIt is.
- The minimum system requirement for Windows 11 is 4GB of memory, while for Windows 12 it will be increased to 8GB.
- Additionally, according to some sources, an internal document about Intel's 14th generation CPU "Meteor Lake," scheduled for release in the second half of 2023, states that it will support Windows 12. Neither Intel nor Microsoft has commented on this.
- The release date for Windows 12 is scheduled for October to December 2024.
If this information is true, we can predict that Windows 12 will not run on computers with an Intel 14th generation CPU and at least 8GB of memory.
However, if Windows 12 does not run on current Windows 11-compatible CPUs, companies and users will not remain silent due to support period issues.
If this were to happen, the support period for Windows 11 would be significantly extended.
Regarding CPUs, I predict that if the CPU is Intel, it will be "8th generation or later" for Windows 11, while for Windows 12 it will be "10th generation or later."
| OS | memory | CPU (Intel) | storage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windows 11 | 4GB or more | 8th generation and later | HDD or SSD |
| Windows 12 | 8GB or more | 10th generation and later | SSD |
I'm excited to see what Microsoft will come up with.
2023/06/20
Microsoft has been spotted making reference to the "next generation of Windows" in a recent demo video.
- Developing the next generation of Windowsコードネームis "Next Valley Prototype Design"
According to Microsoft's internal testing, Windows 12 may feature unique features such as a different-looking desktop and a floating taskbar without a system tray.
Meanwhile, Microsoft is said to be optimizing Windows 12 for ARM processors to provide better performance and experience.
The information also revealed that Microsoft's improvements to Windows 12 are comprehensive, including fundamental architectural adjustments and a smarter user experience, aimed at encouraging more users to upgrade.
This suggests that any environment that supports Windows 11 will be able to run Windows 12.
At this point, we don't know anything other than the information above about whether Windows 12 will actually be released, or what the actual system will look like if it is.
Although Microsoft has yet to officially announce it, many users are looking forward to Windows 12.
2023/12/12
There is information that Windows 12 will be released in June 2024, but this information is not from Microsoft, so it cannot be said to be reliable.
Other rumors suggest that the development codename will be Hudson Valley, and that it may not be released as Windows 12 in June 2024, but as Windows 11 Version 24H2.
2023/12/21
Microsoft has updated the supported CPU list for Windows 11 versions 22H2 and 23H2.
Is it likely that this will be released as Windows 11 Version 24H2 rather than Windows 12?
2024/01/22
We have received information that a new version of Windows will be released in September 2024.
It is said that this new version will most likely be released as Windows 11 Version 24H2 rather than Windows 12.
Major updates to Windows are released once a year around October, so the rumor that "Windows 12 will be released in June 2024" is not credible.
A Microsoft official also said that major updates will be made once a year and that there will be no changes.
This means that if Windows 12 is released, it will likely be after 2025, not 2024.
