[October 2021] Windows image updates available for preview on edge tags

Hi,

Included in this update is .NET 5, and Python 3.9

We have upcoming updates planned for our Windows image releases as part of our regular Windows image refresh. You can already access these updates by using our “edge” tags. They will also be made available as stable releases sometime next week.

Our Windows edge releases can be used in jobs via the executor s in the circleci/windows orb, by configuring edge as the value of the version parameter.

Example of how to use the edge release of the default Windows image:


orbs:

windows: circleci/windows@2.4.0

...

executor:

name: windows/default

version: edge

Example of how to use the edge release of the Windows Nvidia GPU image:


orbs:

windows: circleci/windows@2.4.0

...

executor:

name: windows/gpu-nvidia

version: edge
