#windows update

A Microsoft finalmente confirmou o lançamento do Windows 11 26H2 para o final de 2026. Sempre que uma nova versão do sistema operacional é anunciada, o usuário comum fica com as mesmas dúvidas na cabeça: “O meu computador vai aguentar?”, “Essa atualização vai deixar o meu PC lento?” ou “Vou perder os meus arquivos?”. Se você já usa o Windows 11 no seu dia a dia, pode respirar aliviado. Hoje,…

Windows 10 is STILL NOT DEAD (Until 2027)

Microsoft is keeping Windows 10 alive, but why?

Microsoft has quietly "announced" they will be supported Windows 10 for consumers for at least an additional year through so-called "Extended Security Updates" (ESU). They first announced this last year when Windows 10 ended support, and at the time only mentioned 1 year of support. I suspected they'd extend it, and now they have. They updated the ESU page that support will last through September 2027.

There is a special kind of rage reserved for a Windows update that eats your evening. You click Install, walk away for twenty minutes, and come back to a frozen percentage bar and a vague message about something not going as planned. In June 2026, that message is the only honest thing about the May cumulative update, KB5089549, which managed to fail on perfectly healthy Windows 11 machines…

Microsoft is bringing Copilot back as a sidebar-style experience in Windows 11, after previously shifting it into a more regular app window.

The change makes Copilot feel closer to its earlier Windows integration, where it could sit alongside what users were doing instead of acting like a separate app. It appears to be part of Microsoft’s ongoing effort to keep AI tools more visible inside Windows.

For people who liked the old side panel, this is a small return to form. For everyone else, it may just be another reminder that Copilot is not going anywhere.

Microsoft is bringing back more taskbar and Start menu customization options to Windows 11, including features that longtime Windows 10 users have been asking for since the newer system launched. The update reportedly adds better control over the Start menu layout, app organization, and taskbar behavior that many people felt was stripped down compared to older versions of Windows.

One of the bigger changes is the ability to reduce clutter and make the Start menu feel less aggressively “recommended content” focused. Users will apparently get more freedom over pinned apps and overall layout preferences, which has been one of the most common complaints about Windows 11 for years now.

Microsoft seems to be slowly acknowledging that a lot of users never really wanted a dramatically simplified desktop experience in the first place. The newer design is staying, but the company is gradually reintroducing the kind of customization people were already used to before upgrading.
