Windows 10 Anniversary Update Targeted For Late July Release

Hero Desktop 14328

It may seem obvious but Microsoft is planning to release the Anniversary update for Windows 10 in late July. While the company has not explicitly said when it will be released, insiders at the company have acknowledged that the current road map is for the update to be finalized in mid-July.

As with all timelines, the release date could change, especially since we are a few months out and road maps are used for guidance and are not always hard dates. Considering that Windows 10 was released on July 29th, it would make sense that the company would release the Anniversary update on or around that date; the 29th is a Friday.

The last couple of Windows 10 builds have been packed with new features that should make most end-users happy. Everything from a new dark theme, although it’s far from perfect, to new Cortana features, enhancements to the Action Center, an updated Start menu and a lot more are coming in this release.

At this time, Microsoft still has a few more tricks up its sleeve, although they are small features, that will be coming with the update when it arrives. But, as we get closer to the release date, expect new feature introduction to slow down and a focus on bug bashing to spin up.

Earlier this week, Microsoft released a new build of Windows 10, 14332, that you can view here.
