How to Enable All New Features in Windows 11 25H2 (Official Release)

In this article, I will show you How to Enable All New Features in Windows 11 25H2 (Official Release).

On the 30th of September 2025, Microsoft has released the 2025 Update or the 25H2 Version for Windows 11.

Windows 11, version 25H2 was delivered as an enablement package (eKB). This means that Windows 11, version 24H2 and version 25H2 use a shared servicing branch. It also means that they also share the same new features and enhancements delivered through our continuous innovation efforts. Windows 11, version 25H2 also includes some feature removals such as PowerShell 2.0 and Windows Management Instrumentation command-line (WMIC). And for our commercial customers, Windows 11, version 25H2 includes the ability for IT admins to remove select pre-installed Microsoft Store apps via Group Policy/MDM CSP on Enterprise/EDU devices. For more details on Windows 11, version 25H2, see this blog post.
