Windows 10:

2021 Simple User Guide. 100+ Best Shortcuts to Master your PC

Windows 10 was launched on 29 July 2015 as a major version of the Microsoft Windows operating system. It is built on the Windows NT kernel and is running on Windows 8.

Microsoft opted to call “Windows 10” for 2015 (and skipped “Windows 9”) partly because the system was supposed to be a new Microsoft direction. Windows 10 strives primarily to bring the Windows experience together on several platforms, such as desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones. As part of this endeavor, Microsoft has created Windows 10 Mobile to replace Windows Phone – previous mobile OS from Microsoft. Windows 10 also combines other Microsoft services, like the speech recognition assistant Xbox Live and Cortana.

When Windows 10 contains many new features, the Start menu has also been dropped in Windows 8. The redesigned and enhanced Start Menu gives easy access to settings, folders, and applications and features Windows 8 interface titles as well. At the bottom of the Windows 10 Start menu, you may search for both your local PC and the Web.

Another big change in Windows 10 is the launch of the “Edge” web browser to replace Internet Explorer (IE). While the OS still has IE, Edge is Windows 10’s default browser. Other new features include Continuum, which automatically adjusts the user interface, which is comparable to the Notification bar in OS X, based on whether you’re using an external keyboard or touchscreen. Windows 10 now enables multiple desktops on a single monitor and offers snap assistance, which helps arrange screen windows.

One of the greatest distinctions between Windows 10 and earlier Windows versions is that the Windows 10 upgrade is accessible to Windows 7 and Windows 8 customers free of charge.
