In the mid-2000s many people used a home theater PC running Windows Media Center to get digital media in their living room. Windows has always picked up new media capabilities when they became relevant. Rumors point to users at home getting their first taste of Continuum with the Windows 10 Consumer Preview. Instead of forcing one interface on users, Continuum will ask users whether they’d like to switch to a more touch or mouse friendly interface depending on whether a keyboard is attached and activated. Continuum is for devices with multiple input methods. We know it exists, because Microsoft talked about it at its Windows 10 event. This link is called Continuum and it’s not yet available in the Windows 10 Technical Preview, so we have not been able to use it for ourselves. What it didn’t talk about in great detail was its plans for bridging gap between the tablet friendly Windows Start Screen with the more mouse and keyboard friendly Start Menu. Microsoft talked about many features for Windows 10 before we actually knew what Windows 10 was, like Desktop Windows Store apps and the Start Menu.
Itunes for windows 10 technical preview upgrade#
All are a pretty good reason to upgrade to the operating system next year. Here are the features we know now are in Windows 10 or are strongly rumored to be in Windows 10 once Microsoft finishes the operating system. There are more features in the Windows 10 that have already surfaced, and a few Microsoft has named outright. Windows Store apps can be run in the Desktop along with traditional apps like iTunes too. Spiritually, it’s what we all assumed Windows 9 would be.
In early October, Microsoft announced Windows 10.
Anything beyond that, anything at all was a virtual unknown. Mainly, it confirmed that the next version of Windows would have an optional Start Menu and let apps run in the Desktop.
Microsoft had already talked plenty a bit about some important features. It’s hard to say with some certainty what users expected when rumors of Windows 9 surfaced earlier this year.
