The first major update to windows 11 is now finalized. Someone found an official document just released by Microsoft. The hardware certification page mentioned that the RTM construction of windows 11 22h2 version is 22621 (minimum version number). With the update of windows 11, the 22h2 version will be officially released this autumn, and then slowly appear on all new computers and user PCs with windows 11 installed.
In addition, Microsoft has also disclosed some very specific details, which seems to be the first time Microsoft has publicly acknowledged the details of RTM. The company wrote:
Windows 11, version 22H2 certification build
Minimum acceptable build for Windows 11, version 22H2 certification is RTM build(i.e. 22621).
From Microsoft's script, it seems that there is no longer a specific version as RTM in Windows 11. As long as the minimum version number is build 22621, the system can be delivered as the final version. Windows 11 version 22h2 will also be continuously updated on new PCs or before and after public release.
Popular science: Windows operating system needs a period of time to press, package and distribute before it is officially put on the shelves in retail stores. Therefore, the program code must be completed some time before the official release. The completed program code is called final Code。
RTM is release to manufacturing or release to marketing, which is the version delivered to OEM and market.
About two weeks ago, Microsoft first pushed the windows 11 build 22621 version to the beta channel. At that time, Microsoft pointed out that "the version watermark in the lower right corner of the desktop no longer exists, but the watermark will reappear in the new version later". Obviously, it does mean that it has completed the selection of 22h2 version, and it is also revealed that Microsoft may deliver the RTM version to the OEM today.
Now, Microsoft did choose the 22h2 version, but Microsoft did not do it publicly.
It is understood that windows 11 build 22621 was released to the beta channel and an SDK as early as May 11. In addition, Microsoft also provided ISO files for everyone to download at that time, so if you want to experience the first major update of windows 11 in advance, you can download the 22h2 beta version now.
