Windows 11 Version 25H2 - March 23 Upgrade Deadline

With Microsoft ending support for Windows 11 version 23H2, the upgrade to 25H2 is in the Software Center to ensure your campus-managed device is running the most current operating system well in advance. There are two ways to update.

One and Done (Recommended)

  • In the Software Center, select "Install All" which includes the full upgrade to 25H2
  • The upgrade will require a longer (20-30 minute) reboot

Delayed

  • You're able to postpone the long reboot upgrade for a more convenient time.
  • From the Software Center, manually install other updates as needed, but skip the "Windows 11, version 25H2" upgrade until you're ready.
  • Come back and install the upgrade before March 23.
