Windows announcements from Microsoft Ignite 2025
Windows is embedding intelligence into systems, silicon, and hardware so you can move from AI experimentation to execution at scale. Because every organization approaches AI differently, Windows gives you the choice and control to decide how agents fit into your workflow so when you use them, you can do so with confidence and transparency. Catch up on the Windows AI innovations we’re sharing at Microsoft Ignite and find out what they mean for your organization.

When will this happen:
This week at Microsoft Ignite, we announced:
- Windows security and resiliency innovations to help mitigate risk
- The ability to scale resiliency with new recovery tools
- Ways to improve your update experience with Windows Autopatch update readiness, quality update reports, and automatic or manual approvals for security, non-security, and out-of-band updates
- Sysmon functionality coming natively to Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025 next year
- The public preview of native support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) on Windows and other Windows platform investments
