Microsoft to unveil Windows 9 on September 30: The most exciting changes in store
Looks like, we may finally get a glimpse of Microsoft’s Windows 8 successor codenamed Threshold next month. Allegedly called the Windows 9, the new platform is rumoured to be taking a U-turn as it will bring back most of the familiar Windows attributes. This doesn’t mean there is a dearth of new features. The Windows 9 is likely to come with a host of UI changes. We’ve outlined some of these changes below:
Start Menu:
Windowed Apps:
Goodbye Charms bar
Virtual Deskop:
Shut Down and Start screen:
Unified taskbar: The new improved Windows 9 OS will also bring along a more familiar task bar that is said to unify the old and new user interface. We had heard about this update at the BUILD 2014 conference. One can also expect an improved Cortana digital assistant.
Release date: Early rumours had suggested Windows 9 will be released in 2015, but looks like users may get a early preview very soon. If chatter around the web is to be believed than Microsoft will most likely release a preview of Windows 9 on September 30 or early October, meant for experienced developers. However, it is believed that Microsoft will not reveal the official name at the event next month and will only reveal an overview of the new features.
