Seven Things You Need To Know About Windows 10



 
Microsoft publicized the next model of its Windows operating system, known as Windows 10 while availability is still about a year, but the "Technical Overview" i.e. Beta version of the OS is launched to try the exciting new features.

Since Windows 8, despite its capabilities have failed to attract consumers, the fate of Windows 10 should be a deciding factor in the post-PC era.
 
If you look through the time series of Windows, the last decade has shown a surprising response. Early model was extremely popular XP, Vista disappointed, 7 was a blockbuster, while Windows 8 received mixed reviews and lukewarm reaction. Then there was an advanced version of Windows 8 called Windows 8.1 that tried to solve all the problems users have had with Win8.

Windows 10 can? Let's dive in and find out!

1.Revamped Start Menu

One of the biggest complaints users had with Windows 8, was the loss of the traditional Start Menu. The Metro UI Live Tiles & replaced the old menu.
But now! The Start menu Windows 10 is more like a fusion between Windows 7 and 8 there is a list view (like 7) with live tiles, web search, search application, etc. (Windows 8) - you giving the best of both worlds!

2.Multitasking



The function of SNAP window in this version, it’s quite easy to run many applications on the same screen without overlying windows. Though, the number of windows you may have been limited by the resolution of your LCD. With this version, you can have multiple windows i.e. 4 on each corner so they occupy equal space. It is not clear whether this will also depend on the resolution of your office right now; the function will be to improve the way you multitasking.

3.Visual Changes

 
Windows 10 also provides several workstations, a feature previously found only in Unix Linux &. If you're not aware with Linux, imagine Android home screen. Now you can have the home screen on your computer that has various shortcuts, so no more a mess!

There is an improvement of view of available tasks. For those who do not know what it is, it's how you switch between requests, normally by pressing Alt + Tab or Windows + Tab. The new view of the task was a very pleasant call, where all you open the windows, applications and desktops appear in structures stacked horizontally blocks, making it easy to jump through.

And one of the most important changes, apps now open in resizable windows, unlike full screen orientation in Windows 8, you can now easily close, minimize or maximize application store.


4.Compatibility


Windows 10 would not just be limited to the computer, the same operating system will run on tablets (the interface is different), telephones and computers. There will be a store for all devices and developers can create cross-platform applications. This also brings mobile applications on the desktop!

In addition, Microsoft has invited everyone to be part of the construction of this new operating system. Users can download beta types, send crashing reports, propose recommendations and give feedback to make the best OS before its final release.

5.Touch Screen Optimization

WINDOWS 10 will be optimized for touch screens over Windows 8 Start screen always displays a task-bar and the folder list on the left, a new button task view displays all your applications running as thumbnails and you can switch to any application with just one tap. For devices 2-in-1, when the keyboard is detached, the OS detects on its own and switch modes to display virtual buttons for navigation and control.

6.Smarter Search

The start menu has a redesigned search bar at the bottom - similar to Windows 7 in which you can find your PC files and applications using the search bar. Though, with Windows 10, the search takes files on the PC, the application on the Windows store, and if there are no matches for your computer, a link to open a browser window with the results of your request on Bing.



7.Home View

In the sidebar of the browser window, a new icon called "Home" is present above the Favorites section. It's really the go-to place to display your favourite and recent files. This could save time for users to move between folders and open applications / files by accessing them here instead of searching for them via the Start menu.
