Windows 13

Windows 13 is a series of operating systems developed by Microsoft and released as part of its Windows NT family of operating systems. It is the successor to Windows 10, released nearly eight years earlier, and was released to manufacturing on 2026, and broadly released for the general public on Octomber 2027. Windows 12 was made available for download via MSDN and Technet and available as a free upgrade for retail copies of Windows 10 users via the Windows Store. Windows 12 receives new builds on an ongoing basis, which are available at no additional cost to users, in addition to additional test builds of Windows 12 which are available to Windows Insiders. Devices in enterprise environments can receive these updates at a slower pace, or use long-term support milestones that only receive critical updates, such as security patches, over their ten-year lifespan of extended support.
