November 12, 2025 -
I somehow missed that Microsoft announced the end-of-support for Windows 11 version 23H2 (Home & Pro) back in August 2025 — it completely flew under my radar.
After checking our environment, it turns out this affects a noticeable part of our fleet. I really hope I’m not the only one who missed this stealth announcement.
To all of you who caught it early and already have everything patched and polished: You absolute legends. Please, feel free to bask in the misery of the rest of us scrambling to catch up.
And to everyone else who’s just finding out now — you’re not alone. Grab a coffee, open Intune or PDQ, and let’s suffer together in good company.

Windows 23H2 EOL vs Windows 10 EOL
The missing factor/source of confusion is that Windows Mixed Reality is a separate platform from Windows OS. Support for the Windows Mixed Reality platform goes until 2026. Support for the OS version 23H2 goes until 2025. ...is what I gather based specifically on what MSFT has posted. How can that be? Well, the windows mixed reality platform is more than just home headsets; it also includes the Microsoft Hololens enterprise headset, and Microsoft has several large enterprise contracts built around the hololens. It behooves Microsoft to be able to support those devices and fulfil obligations of those existing contracts. Speculation on my part, but I would venture to guess that the last of the remaining hololens contracts probably expire around that 2026 date (hence, the reason why the disparity between the OS support and WMR support end dates). TL;DR: Its two separate Microsoft platforms (WMR and OS), with two separate support teams (pun not intended), and 2 separate support obligations. ...is how I would understand it. ...either that or someone made a typo on the WMR end of support announcement, 😂 . https://youtu.be/Fn163q6IZQ8?si=L08CnmWl-Nj8aEVh More on reddit.com

Warning: Windows 11 Pro 23H2 Is Out of Support - Many Devices Didn’t Upgrade
When any of these conditions occur, the device remains on Windows 11 Pro indefinitely, despite organisational assumptions that it is already running Enterprise. Most organisations don’t have a process to validate OS edition drift. And while this issue has existed across multiple Windows versions, the End-of-Life of Windows 11 Pro 23H2 has now turned a long-standing blind spot into a more urgent operational risk.
