Windows Server 2025 is the fourteenth and current major version of the Windows NT operating system produced by Microsoft to be released under the Windows Server brand name.^[2] ^[3] It was released on November 1, 2024.^[4]

Microsoft announced that the sudo command feature would be available for Windows Server 2025; however, with the release of Windows 11 build 26052, it later confirmed that the feature would be available exclusively on Windows 11. Nevertheless, some users found sudo command traces on the preview. Microsoft stated that it was added by accident and would be disabled in future releases.^[5]

It is also the first Windows Server operating system to support ARM64 architecture.
