    Yes, Windows 11 version 25H2 is currently available only through the Insider channels, so you can definitely expect some bugs and unfinished features. Insider builds are essentially test releases, meaning Microsoft uses them to gather feedback and fix issues before the public rollout.

    If you’re considering installing it, keep in mind:

    🛠️ Bugs and instability are common — some users report driver conflicts, app crashes, or UI glitches.

    💾 It’s best to test it on a secondary device or VM, not your main work machine.

    🔄 Updates come frequently, and issues can be fixed quickly — but new bugs may also appear.

    If your goal is stability, stick with the latest public release. If you enjoy testing new features early and don’t mind troubleshooting, the Insider 25H2 builds are a great way to preview what’s coming.

    Yes, 25H2 is still in the Windows Insider stage, so it’s normal to run into some bugs and performance issues. Microsoft usually pushes these builds out for testing before the stable release, which means drivers, HDR settings, and even some app compatibility can act up. If you’re testing it, make sure you keep feedback turned on so issues get reported, and always keep a backup or second machine handy since Insider builds aren’t always reliable for daily use.
