Microsoft launches Windows Roadmap website to track new feature rollouts

Microsoft’s feature rollout process for Windows 11 has become increasingly disorganized, with features appearing unpredictably across channels and devices due to A/B testing. This chaos has made it difficult for users, especially IT professionals, to stay informed.

While the underlying unpredictability remains, the roadmap provides much-needed transparency and planning tools, marking a step in the right direction.

The latest Windows 11 Insider build (27823) for the Canary channel comes with a notable change: the Windows installer now offers the option to format partitions using the ReFS (Resilient File System) in addition to the default NTFS. The feature appears to still be in development, as evidenced by the incomplete UI, but it indicates that Microsoft is taking serious the idea to use ReFS widely in the future Windows versions.
