According to Paul Thurrot on Winsupersite.com Microsoft will already during the BUILD conference in April to present his vision for the next version of Windows. Previously, including ZDNet wrote about codenamed “Threshold” and Microsoft’s plans for the spring 2015 release a series of major updates to the three different Windows platforms, Windows, Windows Phone and Xbox One, in order to unite them function rate even more.
Now, it seems, then, that the 2015 update for the desktop version of Windows will be a completely separate operating system with its own name, Windows 9. According Thurrot, Microsoft among others focus on Metro 2.0, but otherwise it is terse about what news Windows 9 might come up with.
Microsoft’s plans, according Thurrot and those in the know that he talked to, so to introduce Windows 9′s vision in large brush strokes during the BUILD conference this year, but without releasing any development version. Within a year ago to be up to three milestone versions have been released to developers to be released again in sharp version in April 2015.
Microsoft started thinking in uppföljarbanor and intend to take the next step from “8-ball” explained have to do with Windows 8′s Vista-like performance on the market. Although Windows 8 is technically and objectively better than its predecessor, the new operating system have met with great resistance by users. The loss of the long-ingrained Start button, and it initially jumbled letters between the desktop and the new Metro-view are probably the two biggest culprits.
Microsoft’s current version of Windows, Version 8.1, at year-end according to web statistics site Net Applications only around 3.6% of the market. Overall rolls Windows 8 and 8.1 about a tenth of all computers, far fewer than the Windows 7 (47%) and even now over a decade old Windows XP (30%).
What do you want most of all to see in the next version of Windows?
