Windows 10 22H2 goes official, folks. It was already a certainty, but things have crystallized with the first preview build of this new operating system now out in the open.
Microsoft officially released the newest version of Windows 10, making it available for download as a cumulative update for Windows Insiders who want to test it out.
Interestingly, this first build is available in the Release Preview channel.
Incidentally, it is the only channel available for Windows 10 Insiders.
Oddly, no changelog has been provided.
Granted, that may be primarily because all this update provides is an enablement package to change the version from 21H2 to 22H2. Obviously, there is a slight bump in the build number as you go from rocking KB5015684 to this new release that goes by KB5015878.
Things go from building 19045.1862, which is publicly available to download from Microsoft to 19045.1865, the Release Preview build.
This means that even if you are not an Insider, you can still upgrade to this new version 22H2 of Windows 10. All you have to do is download the above enablement package and hop onto the train.
Redmond does make it clear that this build is being offered in the seeker experience. That means folks who seek this refresh by checking for it. However, being enrolled in the Release Preview channel means that you will get it offered via Windows Update automatically.
