Windows 2024: A Hushed Revelation Unveils the Evasion of Windows 12 Moniker in Favor of Windows 11 v24H2, Signifying a Paradigm Shift

According to Windows Central, there were rumors at the end of last year that the Windows operating system of 2024 would be called Windows 12, boasting AI features. However, Windows Central has recently suggested that it may still be called Windows 11 instead, sticking to the traditional version numbering system with 24H2 set to be released later this year.

Windows Central’s reasoning behind Microsoft’s potential choice to stick with Windows 11 is due to the departure of Panos Panay, the head of the Windows team at Microsoft. Although there isn’t much information available, it can be inferred that this decision may be influenced by the team’s direction not being fully established. Thus, Microsoft might choose to play it safe and avoid a major version change.

In terms of the development plan for Windows 2024, there doesn’t seem to be any significant deviation from the previous news. This involves completing the “platform” of Windows, coded under the name Germanium, by April. Afterward, features will be developed on top of the Germanium framework, with updates expected to be released to users in September.

TLDR: Rumors suggested Windows 12 with AI features, but it may still be called Windows 11. Panos Panay’s departure from Microsoft’s Windows team may have influenced the decision. The development plan for Windows 2024 remains consistent, focusing on completing the Germanium platform by April and releasing updates in September.
