In the next few weeks (August 2015) we will be releasing a supported“Production Preview” of Windows Management Framework (WMF) 5.0. Later, in Q4 of 2015, you should be able to download the RTM version of WMF 5.0.
WMF 5.0 Production Preview will differ from previous previews of WMF 5.0 in the following ways:
- It will be fully supported until three months after WMF 5.0 RTM. By ‘fully supported’ we mean we will investigate any production blocking issues and provide a workaround or update as necessary.
- All features in the production preview are production ready. No experimental items will be in this package.
- You must uninstall all previous releases of WMF before installing the Production Preview.
Both of the upcoming supported versions of WMF 5.0 (Production Preview and RTM) will incorporate feedback regularly provided by our community of WMF 5.0 Preview users. Please deploy WMF 5.0 Production Preview and provide early feedback to make WMF 5.0 RTM even better.
