Gain enhanced security and performance with Windows Server 2025—now in preview
We are excited to announce that Windows Server 2025 is available in public preview and ready for you to download in the Evaluation Center.
As announced by Joe Belfiore earlier this morning, Microsoft is releasing an update to Windows 8.1 this spring which brings a range of new and enhanced capabilities to customers and partners. In coordination with this release, we will also release a minor update to Windows Server 2012 R2 at that time. This update to Windows Server 2012 R2 includes minor UI enhancements and bug fixes, as well as previously-released monthly update rollups and security fixes. As with all of our servicing updates, we are committed to making this update process as simple and straightforward as possible, ensuring that Microsoft and non-Microsoft applications running on Windows Server 2012 R2 “just work” without the need for re-certification. We look forward to sharing more information as the date approaches!
