Windows 10: Hints for the Future in Our First Real Peek at Redstone 2

Hints for the Future in Our First Real Peek at Redstone 2

Friday’s release of Windows 10 Insider Preview build 14942 has provided us with our first real peek at new features and functionality coming in the next major release of this operating system. It’s due in Spring 2017 and codenamed Redstone 2.

Obviously, there is so much more to come. Microsoft has spoken about its plans to integrate the Windows Holographic shell into mainstream Windows 10 versions, for example, and my sources say that the software giant will publicly discuss major new Redstone 2 features for the first time at its now-scheduled late October Windows 10 event. Too, we get small leaks from time to time, as demonstrated by this video featuring a UWP version of the Paint app.

Microsoft announced several mostly-minor updates and improvements in build 14942, and that alone was notable: Previous Redstone 2-era builds have been light on new features, and have focused vaguely on improving only the “core” underlying parts of the OS.

But let’s read between the lines a bit. In other words, forget about individual features in early builds. Let’s think about direction. Where will Redstone 2 take us?...

PIN makes Windows LESS, FAR, FAR, LESS secure

Read where windows will have password challenges in the near future so we'll need to remember our first pets name, mothers maiden name, etc. so when we forget our password & need it to run one of the repair functions that requires a real password - hopefully
we remember what our first pet turtles name was.
