No mention of the major design changes which occurred between versions of Windows 10

I visited this page because I wished to known what versions of Windows 10 added the background blur effect, fluent design, OOBE and layout changes, etc. I was unable to find any mention of those things here. -A Fluffy Kitteh | FluffyKittehz User Profile Page 16:46, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Windows 24H1, yes, no 24H2: second half hasn't arrived yet

Hi, wikiadmins!

Windows 24H1, yes, no 24H2: second half hasn't arrived yet.

Which world are you living in? There hasn't been a YYH1 release since 21H1; It's only YYH2 release since 21H2 which is now only for Windows 11. Windows 10 has ended with 22H2. 𝓥𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷24𝓑𝓲𝓸 (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 14:58, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Future updates

I attempted to add rows for future updates in the previous month, particularly to versions whose only currently supported editions are LTSB/LTSC only with an edit summary that describes Microsoft's patch routine for those types of versions:

However, they were all reverted afterwards with this edit summary describing the reverts, but without further explanation. Vestrian24Bio and Awesome Aasim, if anyone assumes those additions were non-constructive, why would that be so? Should consensus be reached on whether to add future patches, including to those of Windows 11? Kindly explain.102.158.207.185 (talk) 18:46, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We don't add table rows preemptively. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 00:33, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do not get the concept behind this.102.158.207.185 (talk) 14:51, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Let's just say that we only list the released patches and not future patches. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 15:45, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 13 October 2024

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Windows 10 version history. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Please add 10.0.19045.5011 KB5044273 in the 22H2 table. It is missing but already in Windows_10,_version_21H2 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/october-8-2024-kb5044273-os-builds-19044-5011-and-19045-5011-a07551f8-e20d-4fd4-87f3-01145a3cd494 please replace
