Microsoft announced that WINS, deprecated since Windows Server 2022, will be removed from all Windows Server releases following Windows Server 2025 (standard support through November 2034). The advisory explains technical and security reasons for removal (favoring DNS and DNSSEC), lists components that will be removed, and urges organisations to audit dependencies and migrate NetBIOS name resolution to DNS-based solutions before the removal date.
