Windows Server 2025 in-place upgrade via Windows Update: prerequisites, steps, and limits

Starting in mid-April 2026, Microsoft allows you to upgrade Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server 2022 directly to Windows Server 2025 through Windows Update — no installation media (ISO file or DVD) required. The process is called an in-place upgrade, meaning your installed applications, settings, and server roles remain unchanged while only the operating system version changes. This article covers the prerequisites, the exact registry change you need to make, the step-by-step procedure for both the graphical desktop and the text-only Server Core installation, and the important cases where you must not use this method.

📰 CachyOS Linux Performance Leading Over Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, Fedora Workstation 44

It's not too entirely surprising given the aggressive stance that the CachyOS Linux distribution has taken on out-of-the-box performance, but for those curious, it continues largely leading over the newly-released Ubuntu 26.04 LTS and Fedora Workstation 44 distributions for the leading performance on modern hardware.

Linux App Release Roundup (April 2026)

April 2026 has been and gone, but not before delivering an array of Linux software updates, including new versions of popular FOSS video editor Kdenlive and Oracle’s virtualisation offering VirtualBox. We also got Firefox 150 with GTK emoji picker support and split tab improvements, and a modest bug fix update to the GIMP image editor, albeit resolving an annoying on-canvas text tool quirk. Below, I list other notable Linux app releases to arrive in April. While these didn’t merit a dedicated article (hey, it was a busy month with the release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS), they still brought nifty new […]
