    Nope. Presumably this is the final, RTM build for Bromine (hence the nice round number).
    Next year's 26H2 will probably be 28000.xxx.

    Snapdragon is rumoured to be releasing some high end CPUs early next year, which will only work properly on 28xxx series builds because they require the platform changes that MS was stating to support these new CPU's.

    Canary insiders will soon be back to testing on rs_prerelease branch and on 29xxx series builds which could be next year's feature update for a Windows 11 v26H2.

    It remains to be seen now if Canary will remain on 28000.XXX for a while or if next week we'll jump to 294xx (Krypton) at last.

    upgraded main pc to this one
    don't know what is broken yet, looks fine at first glance

    upd: the hyper-v stuff was enabled by default, disabled it again with "bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off"

    One question.. I made an 11 stock debloat iso with same settings with uupdump of 28000 and last 26200 and 28000 is 3.59 Go and 26200 is 5.36..

    How is it possible this difference??

    28000 has no updates yet, it's pure base 28000.1 build for now
    it's always like this for 10 years or even more

    It's stock iso without all the appx...I remove them directly, editing the settings.ini in uupdump..that's why I say stock debloated

    I upgraded a debloated Windows 11 system to 26220 and then to 28000 and noticed absolutely nothing different. Seems all the "...enhancements..." are to the stuff I don't use.

    check readme, all you need is "AppsLevel =1"

    btw CustomList is not even enabled on your screenshot, so it's useless
