alsemanche 97,820 Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Microsoft has been hinting at a possible new version of Windows. Two days ago, however, they posted a video titled "Windows | Startup Sounds – Slo-fi Remix", which is literally a slowed down version of the Windows start-up sound. The description of the video reads: "Having trouble relaxing because you’re too excited for the June 24th Microsoft Event? Take a slow trip down memory lane with the Windows 95, XP, and 7 startup sounds slowed down to a meditative 4,000% reduced speed. " The video is conveniently exactly 11 minutes long, seemingly hinting that Windows 11 will be announced/released/teased/something at the June 24th event (which starts at 11AM ET).

"Microsoft has been working on a new app store for Windows in recent months, alongside some significant UI changes to the operating system. Nadella appears to reference the store changes here, with a promise to unlock a better economy for developers and creators within Windows itself. This will likely include some significant changes to the Windows Store, allowing developers to submit any Windows application — including browsers like Chrome or Firefox. Rumors have suggested Microsoft may even allow third-party commerce platforms in apps, so developers could avoid Microsoft’s own 15 percent cut on apps and 12 percent cut on games. Nadella’s specific mention of a “next generation of Windows” is interesting, too. Microsoft typically refers to everything as “Windows 10,” and this language could suggest the company is preparing a more significant shift with Windows branding than just the user interface alone." https://www.theverge.com/2021/5/25/22453222/microsoft-windows-next-generation-announcement-sun-valley-build-2021-keynote Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAMROD 117,277 Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 I guess they lowkey admit that 10 is kinda messy then, to reiterate their bold statement than 10 will be the last Windows ever, but actually isn't.

One update fixes something but ruins 5 other things and it keeps happening (to me at least). I wish they'd come up with a stable version that doesn't require as many updates.
