Windows 10 Review

“I finally got the Windows 10 Technical Preview which is still under development. Thanks to a friend. Let’s get to the topic of discussion. Windows 10 is based on its ancestor so it has almost similar interface as that of Windows 8. But Microsoft has changed a lot of things that will definitely please the users”  

Return of the Start Menu


After a huge demand, the company has finally decided to add a fully-functional Windows 7 style Start Menu. Windows 10 comes with both Start Menu and Start Screen. The Start Menu contains All Programs entries similar to Windows 7 along with the live tiles.  





Modern Apps Run in Windowed Mode in Desktop


In Windows 10, metro apps run in windowed mode on Desktop similar to other software such as Microsoft Office, etc. Apart from this, all the metro apps contains a new App Button.




 
  


Multiple Desktop Feature


Its one of the most useful and interesting features introduced in Windows 10 which allows users to have more than one Desktop at a time. Linux users are already using this feature since long time. This feature can be used by pressing a new shortcut Windows key+Tab. You can also create a new Desktop by clicking on a new Taskview button on the Task Bar.



 


New Command Prompt


The Command Prompt Console window has been improved a lot. Microsoft has added some most awaited features such as text wrapping on resize, CTRL Hotkeys, etc to Windows 10 Command Prompt.







“The other feature that mark their importance are Data Sense, Battery Saver, zPC Settings and many more. But there is still a lot to be unfolded as it is under development. Let’s hope for the best. As far as it is the matter of a user-friendly and easy to handle windows, Windows 10 is definitely better than Windows 8.
