#Windows three year cycle

Microsoft may just be gearing up to switch to its original three-year development cycle for major versions of Windows. The report comes from Windows Central, suggesting that Microsoft may shift back to its original three-year cycle with Microsoft also planning to increase the output of new features rolling out to the latest versions of Windows. Microsoft had originally abandoned its three-year cycle with Windows 10 last launching in 2015, Windows 8 launching back in 2012, and Windows 7 back in 2009. Furthermore, it reported that Windows 11 version 22H2 may ship the features of Sun Valley 3 and kick off its effort (internally called "Moments") of dropping new features up to four times a year outside major OS releases. This reportedly would help product teams ship its new features much sooner with Microsoft having supposedly tested this with the rollout of the Taskbar weather button on Windows 11 earlier this year.

Secondly, the machines we have now are far more powerful than they were 3 years ago when people first beta-tested Windows Vista.
