Was there ever a Win 10 feature release 22H1?

The September 8, 2022 issue of the Ask Woody Alert mentions Microsoft getting ready to release 22H2 versions of Windows 10 and 11.  Has there ever been a 22H1 version of Windows 10?

The Ask Woody Plus recommendation for Win 10 users is still to stay with feature release 21H2, isn’t it?  Does Microsoft ever skip feature release “numbering”?

Just wanted to be sure I haven’t missed a feature release for Win 10.

The Alert error has been corrected:

the answer was NO to 22H1, Nick452.

in addition to what sheldon said, here’s the proof after when Microsoft officially announced about the change in the feature update schedule once the November 2021 update was released:

Release cadence and support

We will transition to a new Windows 10 release cadence to align with the Windows 11 cadence, targeting annual feature update releases. We are now renaming the servicing option for releases to the General Availability Channel starting with the November 2021 Update (Note: this replaces the previous “Semi-Annual Channel” term for the servicing option). The next Windows 10 feature update is slated for the second half of 2022. We will continue to support at least one version of Windows 10 through Oct. 14, 2025. As a second half (H2) of the calendar year release, Home and Pro editions of the November 2021 Update will receive 18 months of servicing and support, and Enterprise and Education editions will receive 30 months of servicing and support beginning today.

No. Blame the 111 degree temp for frying my brain.

21H2 – the one I recommend
22H2 – the one that is coming that I want you to defer
