WASHINGTON: As Microsoft released its latest operating system Windows 10, you might be wondering what’s new in the operating system.
Microsoft have done terrific job with new Windows to make both Windows 8 and Windows 7 users happy.
It’s is to mention here that Windows 7 is the most successful Windows yet unlike Windows 8 which failed to grab the market despite its uniqueness.
Windows 8 was the experiment that was a vision to transfer the users towards the touch with no need of Mouse.
But that experiment was failed as company some launched Windows 8.1 which was much better then Windows 8 but still kept touch features.
Now company kept elements of Windows 8 and functionality of Windows 7 to create Windows 10.
Here are some features of Windows 10:
Expanded Start menu
Windows 10 will look and work a lot more like Windows 7 than Windows 8, and it will be a place where traditional and modern apps co-exist happily. The Start menu – shown below – will return and it will be customisable, including being resizeable.
Apps that run in a window
Modern apps will run on the desktop, just as had been rumoured and they’ll be resizeable just like traditional apps.
Improvements to Snap
Windows 7’s snap function will work with all apps, whether new or old. A new layout means you can snap four apps on the same screen. A new feature called Snap Assist allows you to grab apps from multiple desktops within Task View.
Task View
There’s a new button on the taskbar called Task View. Press it and you will see a thumbnail of all the apps which are open. It’s very much like Mac OS X’s Expose feature, and that’s a good thing. It’s Microsoft’s way of helping novice users to get familiar and proficient with multitasking.
Multiple desktops
WIndows 10 will also support multiple desktops, instead of requiring you to find your own way of doing it.
The new version will be also very much about making those who were unhappy with Windows 8 happy again. The focus is very much about the keyboard and mouse, but those who have devices with touch capabilities haven’t been forgotten.
