Things you should knows about new Windows 10

WASHINGTON: Microsoft finally unveiled operating system Windows 10 with news looks and news browsers.

As expected the company replaced Internet Explorer with the new browser Spartan which has some quite impressive features.

It is specially designed for Windows 10 which is a cleaner browser with a lot of new features and integration with other Microsoft services.

There’s a “note-taking mode” that lets you draw all over pages with a stylus or add comments with a keyboard, then save the results on OneNote.

Windows 10 start menu also has a new look but it is very similar to the one debut in Windows 8.

If you have used the Windows phone then you must be familiar with Cortana, Microsoft’s personal digital assistant, is coming to the PC. Long available on mobile, Cortana will now live next to the start button on the task bar and serve as a natural-language interface for Windows 10.

It will answer spoken or typed queries, searching documents across local documents as well as ones stored on OneDrive. It will also propose web links and other suggestions — if you type Skype, for example, it or link to the store if you haven’t installed it already.

Cortana will also be integrated into the new Maps app, reminding you where you parked your car.

Microsoft demonstrated its vision for getting all its Windows 10 PCs, tablets, and phones to work well together.

First up was the unified Office, the phone and tablet versions of which look very similar to the desktop one. Most of the same formatting options are there, and the recent documents list syncs between devices, so you can collaborate on documents on the go. Microsoft ran a Powerpoint presentation from a phone and said you could wirelessly print documents from mobile as well.

Windows 8 was a desktop / tablet compromise, but Windows 10 is going even further: it’s for phones, too. The look of Windows 10 is very much similar to its predecessor .

One of Windows Phone’s fatal flaws, of course, was that it didn’t work well (or at all) with other major apps like Instagram or Gmail. But with a heavier focus on universal apps, and an assurance that this isn’t just “Windows Phone” but actual Windows, it’s possible Microsoft will be in better shape this time around.

With Windows 10 you might not need of Xbox cause your PC can turn in to Xbox. Microsoft owns a vast majority of the computer gaming market.

Now Microsoft announced an Xbox app for launch on every Windows 10 machine. The app brings over Xbox One features like your messages, friends list, and activity feed. You’ll be able to chat with people on Xbox Live and view console achievements and videos from your desktop, as well as record your own clips on PC.

From this first look, it seems a lot like an expanded version of Microsoft’s SmartGlass mobile app. But more excitingly, you can actually stream games from your Xbox One — it’s roughly comparable to Sony streaming games from the PlayStation 4 to the Vita.
