Microsoft has released a new build of the Windows Server Insider Preview. This month's build 25158 is now available to download as an ISO from the Windows Server Insider website along with a VHDX, but even though this uses the same underlying kernel as the Windows 11 Sun Valley 3 (23H2) development, as per usual, there's no changelog to speak of, so it's unclear what's new or broken in this build.
The branding for Server has still not been updated and remains as Windows Server 2022 in the preview. In addition, Microsoft is asking Insiders to refer to these builds as vNext rather than Windows Server 2022 which is already in the market.
Windows 11 build 25158, which is the Sun Valley 3 consumer development was also released today in the Windows Insider Dev Channel, which means these editions will continue to sync up.
This build does not contain any release highlights or known issues.
