One of the foundational changes that are happening as part of this effort is that Windows 12 will feature state separation. This essentially means that different components of the OS will be broken up into different partitions, many of which aren't user accessible. This is something that's fairly common for modern operating systems, such as Android and iOS, and it has a few key benefits. The most notable one would be faster updates; since most of the system files are in partitions that can't be accessed by the user, it becomes easier for system files to be updated without interrupting usage of the device, making for a faster and more seamless process. It can also improve the reliability of the reset procedure on a device, so you have a more consistent experience when you want to start fresh.

New state separation system
Although it’s unclear the actual features and changes that will become part of the new version, recent reports suggest that the company will be partitioning the operating system into different modules with a project known as “CorePC.” This new approach will allow the creation of different editions of Windows 12, depending on the requirements of the device, since not every form factor can offer the same features and capabilities, such as legacy support for Win32 programs.

“CorePC” will also introduce the concept of “state separation,” which is an approach that will divide the entire system into several “read-only partitions” not accessible by the user or third-party apps. In contrast, Windows historically has been using one partition for the entire installation (not counting the boot and recovery partitions), which means that system files, applications, and user data are stored in a single place. The benefit of separating the components into different partitions allows better management with faster updates while improving the platform’s security. Also, this approach could make resetting a device faster and more reliable.

Windows 12 is expected for the fall of 2024.Windows 12 is expected for the fall of 2024. Artificial intelligence, video games and a renewal of the layers of the operating system will be some of the improvements that have been leaked could reach the new Windows.

Microsoft is preparing the launch of its next operating system, Windows 12after three years of service with Windows 11. Although the official release has not yet been announced, rumors indicate that the new operating system will take capabilities to a higher level and focus on the integration of artificial intelligence (AI).

Although the exact release date has not been revealed yetrumors point to a fall 2024 release. Microsoft is expected to introduce the new Windows 12 operating system along with a host of new devices in October 2024.

Windows 12, known internally as “Next Valley” or “Hudson Valley”, will include the integration of AI into native system applications such as photo editing and file organization. This will enable the system to make smart photo edits and help users organize their files more efficiently.

Another important change will be the renewal of the fundamental layers of the operating system to modernize it and improve security. This update, called “CorePC”, will make Windows 12 more modular and adaptable to each device.
