Get To Know More About The Upcoming Windows 10 OS

New Windows Operating System

The expected release of Windows 10 this year is the most discussed topic in the world of technology. Microsoft is releasing the latest Windows operating system after the Windows 8.1 release, which was more like an upgrade in the year 2013. Microsoft is hoping to get the issues resolved post the release of the touch centric Windows 8 OS.

Microsoft is aware of users' expectations; hence, they launched the Windows Insider Program that let customers install the preview version of Windows 10 operating system. The preview version is free and anybody is allowed to install it in their computers. It is best to install Windows 10 in a virtual machine than in the computer that you use for your regular work. You will not be able to work the usual way since Windows 10 is still in the development phase and does not have all the features. Though it does not have all the features loaded, you get a chance to see how the operating system looks in the development phase.

Users who are concerned only about the desktop ecosystem need not worry either, because this will not be another touch centric OS like Windows 8. Microsoft ensures that the upcoming operating system will be designed in such a way that it supports both touch screen and desktop computers.

The Start button will be included with the Windows 10 OS, and it is much like the traditional one that we always loved. Microsoft has not only brought back the Start button and the Start menu, they have also made some changes to the menu. They have included the live tile style in the Start menu. Though this will be new to some users, this feature looks effective and advanced. The best thing about Windows 10 is that it would not have charms bar in it.

Windows 10 Preview

With the few changes revealed about the Windows 10 OS, it is evident that Microsoft is finally listening to the customers. These changes made in Windows 10 can be listed under the best improvements to be made in Windows operating systems. For users who are stuck with Windows XP, Windows 7 and other operating systems, this is the best time to upgrade.

It is too early to say whether the new OS from Microsoft will make up for the loss of the Windows 8 series. However, Microsoft's attempts to develop the new OS based on user feedback and suggestions is commendable.
