A few days ago, my PC automatically updated from version 24H2 to 25H2, and ever since then, I've been experiencing persistent issues that I haven't been able to resolve. Unfortunately, the option to roll back to the previous version seems to be unavailable, which has made troubleshooting even more difficult. I've tried just about everything I could think of—tweaking settings, running diagnostics, checking for compatibility problems, and even reaching out to support forums—but nothing has worked so far. It's been incredibly frustrating, and I'm still stuck with the same problem.431Views0likes2CommentsWindows Server on ARM64 (Insider Previews)
When will there be a preview build of Windows Server on ARM? There is demand for it from developers, and devops personal as well. It is known that it already partial exists due to the article on Azure Host OS. Azure Host OS – Cloud Host - Microsoft Community Hub Please release this so we can test it against our code.45KViews9likes23CommentsAllow for the expansion of physical disks in a storage pool
Allow for the expansion of physical disks in a storage pool just like lvm on Linux. This would be useful in virtual environments and in Azure to be able to expand the physical representation of the virtual disk file. Be it a vmdk or vhdx. This currently allowable on other modern logical volume managers out there. This should be trivial to modify since the meta data is already there. It could be added to the powershell commandlets to rescan-physicaldisk, which would rebuild the metadata on the pool. I have a feedback hub suggestion open on it, which if you could please upvote: https://aka.ms/AAy4ihw41Views0likes0CommentsAAD join Server 2025
Hi, Wondering if Server 2025 can be AAD joined. this would help some businesses that have their laptops joined as well as would also like to have the option to join their Server for their line of business apps etc. Seems really strange you can have win11 AAD joined but not server 2025. Or am i just missing something here. Having to use Azure Arc comes with extra headaches and costs.Solved10KViews2likes15CommentsIn-place upgrade possibility planned for Windows Server 2025 Datacenter Azure Edition ?
There is currently no official ISO for Windows Server Datacenter: Azure Edition that supports setup.exe /auto upgrade for in-place upgrades. Azure Update Manager does not support OS version upgrades for Azure Edition through optional features. Is anyone aware of a supported workaround?498Views3likes4CommentsHelp us shape the future of Windows Server Previews
