Microsoft plans to unveil Windows Threshold in late September, but details about the company's plans for the next version of its software keep emerging. Today I'm hearing new information that Microsoft wants to change how it delivers updates for Threshold and future versions.

Windows 11: Early upgrade to the final version (official)
The first preview of Windows Threshold says that the software maker will introduce a new user agreement to make Windows Updates (updates released every 2 or 4 weeks) mandatory for those who want to test the early version of what is expected to be called Windows 9. And here we will see the company take the operating system down the same path as Office 365 and Windows Azure, with quick and incremental updates for Windows and Windows Phone on a more regular schedule.
This means that you no longer have to wait long (usually one to three years) for a new feature to be implemented. Therefore, we can expect the company to roll out bug and security fixes as well as new features very quickly via Windows Update.
And now comes the interesting part: instead of releasing Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 12, and Windows 14 (because Microsoft will obviously skip Windows 13), the company will make a big point of updating only Threshold. If this information turns out to be true, it could also mean that Microsoft is thinking about calling its operating system simply "Windows," since versioning will no longer be relevant.
