Windows 8.1 RTM should be announced this week Enlarge picture - Windows 8.1 RTM should be announced this week

Microsoft initially promised to ship Windows 8.1 RTM to OEMs around the world by the end of August, but word is that the company has already completed work on the OS update, so the software is now on its way to manufacturers.

A report published by The Verge and confirming that Windows 8.1 has reached RTM at build 9600 also reveals Microsoft’s plans to publicly confirm that it has finalized work on the operating system this week, ahead of general availability in October.

Unfortunately for MSDN and TechNet subscribers who hoped to get Windows 8.1 RTM before the public launch, it appears that the company is making serious efforts to prevent any leaks, so no build will be published online by October.

Windows 8.1 will be available as a free download from the Store starting with October 17, while the public launch will take place one day later.

The RTM version of this update, oddly enough, is not the end of the road for Windows 8.1 development. Instead, Microsoft will use the time between RTM and general availability (GA)—set for October 17, 2013—to continue testing Windows 8.1 in anticipation of releasing a set of interim fixes, called Quick Fix Engineering (QFE) updates. These QFEs will be delivered to PC and hardware makers so that they can add them to their PCs and devices before launch. End users will receive these QFEs automatically via Windows Update within three days of GA.

This process of "finalizing" a product and then updating it before it is released to the public isn't new; Microsoft did the same thing with Windows 8/RT last year. But it does explain the two month delta between RTM and GA, which many had questioned. RTM simply doesn't mean what it used to mean, and in this age of constant iteration, no product is ever really done.
