Windows 10: Windows Core OS touted as the future of Windows 10 & Xbox

Microsoft has been working on a secretive Windows Core OS as the underpinnings of its future iterations of Windows 10. While Microsoft hasn’t officially announced the project, multiple references to Windows Core OS have appeared in official documents and LinkedIn job posts last year.

Windows 10X, which was announced in October 2019, is also based on the little spoken Windows Core OS. According to previous reports, Windows Core OS is Microsoft’s modular platform and it can be shrunk down to meet the needs of different form factors such as HoloLens.

Microsoft watchers have described Windows Core OS as the successor to Windows OneCore and it is a combination of UWP, PWAs, Win32 apps, and the C-Shell (composable).

Today, we have spotted a LinkedIn page from Microsoft and it contains multiple references to ‘Windows Core OS’ for Windows 10, Xbox and even Windows Mixed Reality.

As per a profile, the future iterations of Windows 10, HoloLens and Xbox would be based on Windows Core OS.

“On the team building Windows Core OS: the foundation for future iterations of Windows 10, Windows Mixed Reality (HoloLens), and Xbox system software. Currently working on Windows 10X, the operating system for dual-screen PCs like the Surface Neo – available holiday 2020,” the profile of Microsoft engineer reads.

What’s more interesting, however, is that Windows Core OS is also being prepared for the future iterations of Xbox. As we’ve previously reported, Windows Core OS could come to Microsoft’s gaming console as ‘GameCore OS’ and the next-gen Xbox Series X might ship with this new OS.

In addition, a Microsoft Careers listing for a senior software engineer states that Microsoft’s Mixed Reality team is working on innovative technologies with Windows Core OS.

All these reports suggest that Microsoft is slowly but surely making efforts to truly merge its Windows operating system into once. The software giant want all of its consumer products to be based on the same operating system, and a Microsoft job posting previously stated that (WCOS) will be “the OS shared across all new devices.”
