Henry 2,374 Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 1 Million People Are Already Testing The Windows 10 Technical Preview Late last month Microsoft finally unveiled the next version of Windows, which it unexpectedly decided to call Windows 10. The official release is slated for late 2015, but the company is offering a technical preview and it may already be a hit. According to Microsoft, 1 million people have registered to test out Windows 10. The news comes from a Microsoft blog post published earlier today, which focuses on the Windows 10 Technical Preview and claims the company has already received 200,000 pieces of feedback. Microsoft also notes that, even if you don’t have any original feedback to share, you can still help out. Just click the “me too†button built into the preview; confirming an issue someone else already reported will show Microsoft that it’s affecting multiple people. Microsoft says most people are using Windows 10 as their go-to operating system, rather than containing the preview in a virtual machine. 64 percent of testers are running Windows 10 an a real PC, while 68 percent of people use it to launch at least seven apps per day.

Henry 2,374 Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Microsoft to Showcase New Windows 10 Features in January Microsoft will hold an event in January to showcase new Windows 10 features and talk about its plans for smartphones and tablets, according to sources with knowledge of the matter. The software giant is also expected to use the event to launch its first Windows 10 consumer preview. Microsoft gave us our first glimpse at Windows 10 at a small event in San Francisco back in September. The brief event lasted just one hour, and there are many things Microsoft did not get a chance to demonstrate. But the company reportedly has much more to show us next year. “We’re told the company’s consumer feature unveiling will be more significant,†The Verge reports. “Microsoft has a large number of features to discuss, including a new touch interface dubbed Continuum.†According to the report, the event won’t take place at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas  although Microsoft will be attending that  but rather a separate event in late January. In addition to showing off new features, the company is expected to announce its plans for Windows 10 on other devices, including smartphones, tablets, and possibly Xbox One. It’s thought Microsoft could also roll out Windows 10′s first consumer preview at the same time. A technical preview is already available to those looking to build applications for Windows 10, but consumer builds tend to be slightly more stable, and should contain some of the additional features. Microsoft will announced the event before the end of this year, The Verge says. Source Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry 2,374 Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 Windows 10 Consumer Preview Coming January 21st Microsoft will hold a press event at its Redmond headquarters on 21 January where it will reveal more details about Windows 10, and launch a consumer-focused preview. Windows 10 is set to be the biggest overhaul to Microsoft's market-dominating software ever, with the operating system working across a vast range of devices, from smartphones and tablets to laptops, desktops, and severs. The company announced Windows 10 at the end of September, launching a Technical Preview alongside it which is aimed at "PC experts comfortable downloading unfinished software" such as IT managers, enthusiasts and early adopters. Now the company has announced that it will hold a media event - entitled Windows 10: The Next Chapter - at its Redmond headquarters on 21 January where it is expected to give much more detail on the consumer version of Windows 10, potentially show Windows 10 working on touchscreen devices, and launch a consumer-focused preview. "You'll hear directly from senior leaders from the Operating Systems Group including Terry Myerson, Joe Belfiore and Phil Spencer who will talk about the Windows 10 consumer experience," Brandon LeBlanc said on the Blogging Windows website. Microsoft has not given a specific launch date for the final version of Windows 10, simply saying that it will be launched at some point in 2015, likely towards the end of the year. Following the event on 21 January, the company will reveal more details aimed at developers at its annual Build conference which will be held at the end of April 2015. The event will be live-streamed online allowing everyone to follow the announcements. Source Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
