Although the Windows 11 2025 Update (version 25H2) doesn't technically introduce any new features, throughout 2025, Microsoft has been rolling out a bunch of new features and improvements each month using its cumulative update mechanism. When you group all of them, you can see that the operating system has received substantial changes during the course of the year.
For example, the Taskbar has received several features, such as the ability to show smaller icons, new battery iconography, and a share option for recent files. On the other hand, File Explorer has received several updates, including AI actions and changes to the Home page, among other enhancements.
