Microsoft has just released its final Patch Tuesday for 2025. 56 vulnerabilities fixed, of which three are classed as zero-days and one is under attack. If you’re running an up-to-date Windows 11 install, the update should download and install automatically. You can delay this but you cannot stop it — rightly so.

The new feature update, Windows 11, version 25H2, is now available for download and installation for all PCs that meet the necessary hardware requirements for Windows 11.

TL;DR: You can now get a Microsoft Office lifetime license for only $30 (reg. $229).
