    Microsoft readies Windows 10 21H2 for public rollout


    Microsoft has christened this year’s fall update as the Windows 10 version 21H2. At the moment, it’s only available for “seekers” in the Release Preview Channel and Beta Channel for unsupported Windows 11 PCs, meaning those who check for updates manually will be offered the feature update.

    Windows 10 21H2 has already been feature-locked and it’s frozen in terms of adding noticeable improvements, and Microsoft has been working on stabilising the OS. Windows 10 October 2021 Update is apparently around the corner and Microsoft has now released a new cumulative update to prepare this new version of Windows for consumers.

    Build 19044.1263 or newer is likely to be the final build that will ship to users in October 2021. That’s because Microsoft has now published Windows 10 ISO images for Build 19044.1263 in the Windows Insider program, and it is also rolling out to all testers in the program.

    Microsoft is currently busy squashing bugs that pop up during the final testing, so it’s likely that a big cumulative update with bug fixes will be released in the last week of October 2021.

    Windows 10 21H2 rollout rumours


    Naturally, Windows 10 21H2 will reach non-Insiders in the month of October as an optional update, ahead of a likely wider rollout in early 2022.

    As we reported recently, Windows 10 version 21H2 (October 2021 Update) is a minor enablement package update and it comes with quality improvements for enterprise customers.

    According to the changelog, Microsoft has fixed issues with Windows 10’s OOBE (out-of-box experience). Another bug has been fixed that causes the operating system to display time incorrectly after a daylight saving time (DST) change. Microsoft has also fixed an issue where Outlook apps would stop responding during normal use.

    Microsoft is also testing TPM attestation support for Windows 10 21H2-powered PCs using Intel Tiger Lake CPUs. Similarly, Microsoft is testing support for external Windows Hello cameras, but this feature will require support for built-in Windows Hello cameras as well as external cameras.

    Windows 10 isn’t going to change dramatically after October 2021 Update and there won’t be any new features in version 21H2.

    We’ve also heard of improvements for inbox apps like Microsoft Photos, Clock, Mails & Calendar on Windows 10, but Microsoft hasn’t revealed when these Windows 11 apps will arrive on Windows 10 machines.

    Microsoft has only confirmed that Windows 10’s Store app will get Windows 11-like design in the fall of this year and more details will be shared later.

  2. Microsoft Selects Dolby Audio for Windows 10

    it would've been great if microsoft added HEVC decoders, LAV filters along with other codecs with Windows 10, and developing WMP to be better than VLC, KMPlayer and such sorts of media players.

    Nevertheless, this is good step for microsoft, by far.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”

    Windows 7 top feature request list leaked to the public

    With Windows still managing to find its way to over 95 percent of the desktop computers sold each year, it's not surprising that one can find plenty of people interested in giving their feedback about what future versions of Windows should be able to do.

    A few years ago, before Windows Vista had even shipped, Microsoft sent out a wish list form asking people what features they would like to see in the next version of Windows, currently code-named Windows 7. The top wished-for features in this list were recently leaked to the public and have popped up at various sites (e.g., Neowin). While anonymous sources at Microsoft tell us that they bear no relationship to the actual feature set Microsoft is currently writing for Windows 7, the list does provide interesting insight into what the Windows-using public most wants from Windows.

    The features are listed in no particular order, but they break down into various categories depending on what part of Windows the feature request falls under. Many requests for improvements in Internet Explorer, such as a session restore function, are fairly obvious wishes for features that already exist in competitive products such as Firefox and Opera. Other suggestions, such as a tabbed Windows Explorer, look for features from web browsers to migrate into the general user interface.

    Some of the feature requests are clearly unrealistic, such as the desire to "back up" Xbox 360 games to the PC (yeah, I don't think Microsoft will be doing that one). Others are minor user interface enhancements that would be nice additions but wouldn't really change the Windows experience, such as a progress bar when hibernating the system. However, there are a few that make good sense and would be welcome additions to the operating system, such as a built-in video and audio codec manager.

    A Windows 7 insider who wishes to remain anonymous told Ars that the leaked feature list was gathered before any real development on Windows 7 was started, and readers should not expect to see requests from the list necessarily implemented in Microsoft’s next major Windows release.
