News has it that there won’t be a Windows 11. Yes, Windows 10 is the last
traditional release from the company, and Microsoft will improve it by adding
enhancements and updates in the future.
TheVerge
quotes Microsoft employee Jerry Nixon, a developer evangelist speaking at the
company’s Ignite conference saying, “Right now we’re releasing Windows 10, and
because Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, we’re all still working on
Windows 10.”
He reportedly went on to explain how Microsoft has been working on the base
of Windows 10 all through last year even when it launched Windows 8.1. The company
will continue to further push updates to this latest OS, but will avoid
releasing a complete new version.
The reason for this change is Microsoft reportedly plans to launch Windows
as a service. However, doesn’t really explain how it plans to do so. “Microsoft
has altered the way it engineers and delivers Windows, and the initial result
is Windows 10. Instead of big releases, there will be regular improvements and
updates. Part of this is achieved by splitting up operating system components
like the Start Menu and built-in apps to be separate parts that can be updated
independently to the entire Windows core operating system,” points out TheVerge
report.
“Recent comments at Ignite about Windows 10 are reflective of the way
Windows will be delivered as a service bringing new innovations and updates in
an ongoing manner, with continuous value for our consumer and business
customers,” a Microsoft spokesperson later told the news site.
The company recently announced the latest build for Windows 10. Read on to
find out what’s new.
