Windows 10 version 21H2, the latest version of the OS released back in November 2021 is now available for all users. The company announced on Friday on its Windows Health dashboard (via Neowin) that the update was now ready for “broad deployment,” meaning that all users can now get it via Windows Update.
Just like Windows 10 versions 21H1 and 20H2, the 21H2 update is a pretty minor one. New features include support for the WPA3 H2E Wi-Fi security standard, Windows Hello for Business improvements, as well as GPU compute support in the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

Windows 10 version 21H2 will be supported until June 13, 2023, and Microsoft announced last year that the OS will only get one major update per going forward until it reaches end of support in 2025. This means that we should get Windows 10 version 22H2 later this year for users that can’t upgrade to Windows 11.
Microsoft usually automatically installs new Windows 10 updates on PCs that are approaching end of support, and that will soon be the case for Windows 10 version 20H2. The end of servicing will happen on May 10, 2022 for Home and Pro users, but the Education, Enterprise, and IoT Enterprise editions of Windows 10 version 20H2 will reach end of servicing next year on May 9, 2023.
