Below, I list other notable Linux app releases to arrive in April.

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.
