Since then, Microsoft has also been releasing Moment updates, which add even more features. Android app support began rolling out in February 2022, and more recently, the WindUpdate (version 22H2) began rolling out on Sept. While Microsoft will let you install Windows 11 on an unsupported PC, you're putting yourself in an unsupported state that might become a problem if something stops working.Īs we've mentioned above, Windows 11 is also getting frequent updates that add features every now and then. If you want to try out some workarounds for installing it on unsupported PCs, we have a guide for that too. Check out our guide for getting started with installing Windows 11 here. You'll need a PC that meets the minimum requirements to be supported on Windows 11, and those have changed quite a bit compared to Windows 10. However, you still have to install it manually because Microsoft isn't forcing anyone to install the update unless they want to, and Windows 10 is supported until 2025. That means everyone with a supported PC should be able to get it right now by just heading into the Settings app and checking for updates. Therefore the features will remain always enabled likely indicating that the build 22621.675 (KB5019509) could indeed be Moment 1.SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT When was Windows 11 released?Īfter introducing Windows 11 on June 24, 2021, Microsoft officially began rolling it out to the general public on Oct. The feature ID '39145991' that enables the Moment 1 features has apparently been set to 15 which implies it cannot be altered with software like ViveTool that is used to enable and disable hidden Windows features. Twitter user and Windows enthusiast PhantomOcean3 was doing what they do best, ie, exploring Windows, when they spotted something indicating that the new Release Preview channel build could be Moment 1.

While we already know that these builds are building up to the WindMoment 1 update, expected to release sometime soon, underlying evidence suggests that the build 22621.675 could actually be the Moment 1 update general availability (GA) release candidate itself. The new build brought tabbed File Explorer, Taskbar overflow menu, and a few other new things to all Release Preview Channel Insiders. Microsoft released Windows 11 22H2 build 22621.675 (KB5019509) to the Release Preview channel Insiders yesterday.
