Microsoft has now released the shipping version of the Windows 11 2024 Update (24H2), the year’s major feature update for Windows 11. But there’s a price to pay: When Microsoft begins installing Windows 11 24H2 on your PC, some older applications and features will be gone forever.
Microsoft has signaled some of the changes previously. But well-known apps like Windows Mixed Reality, Tips, and WordPad will still be removed from your PC. Fortunately, there are alternatives for the applications Microsoft is removing (fave.co/4eDQGfd). Microsoft will also take several weeks to roll out Windows 11 24H2 (fave.co/4dGK3HX), leaving you with time to make the transition.
Microsoft has detailed the changes in a list of deprecated Windows features (fave.co/45WmFmw). While the decisions can take place over a period of months, they’re usually made with one target in mind: “the release of the next version of Windows.” Put another way, some of these features were targeted for deprecation (removal) a long time ago, but that’s being implemented now with the release of the Windows 11 2024 Update.
