    It's not going to be a massive upgrade I think. It's mostly to EOL Windows 10 so they can eventually end support to it (in 2025). I'm imagining it's just a feature update on steroids. And I'd prefer it that way to be honest with you.

    I did like this 11 minute slowed down piece of Windows start-up sounds though:



    A piece of trivia, the original Windows 95 startup chime (and the first one in this video) was made by none other than Brian Eno, though he used a Mac to do it: "I wrote it on a Mac. I've never used a PC in my life; I don't like them."

    I think it may be time to change to win 10.
    Usually Microsoft abandon a system when it's finally ready and stable.

    I just want a safe and stable system.

    Patchday June 2021: Microsoft is missing out on Windows 10's new taskbar feature (June 9, 2021)
    Microsoft released new Windows 10 updates on June patch day 2021.
    These plug various security gaps in the system and bring a new function for the taskbar.

    The June Patchday 2021 closes security gaps and eliminates various bugs in Windows 10, Office and other Microsoft programs. There is also a new function for the taskbar that is now being rolled out for all users. The US company Microsoft has rolled out the cumulative updates for June Patchday 2021 for Windows 10. The patches fix various bugs and fix 49 security holes, of which Microsoft classifies five as critical.

    In addition, the "News and Interesting Topics" function for the taskbar will be activated for all users with the update. The weather button gives you direct access to news and topics of interest to you - such as local news, traffic or the current weather forecast for your location.Source: https://www.netzwelt.de/news/163347-patchday-fuer-juni-2021.html

    Windows 3.11 for workgroups which was very popular goes in between 1.0 and 95. WindowsNT [for "pros"] started about the same time which they transformed into Windows 2000 and then butchered into XP and other crap.

    Dark mode is still not implemented completely. Control Panel to Settings app migration is no where near. No tabbed file manager yet. They shouldn't name it Windows 11 because Windows 10 is f*ckin incomplete.

    I hope, like Mac, Windows will support AVB natively (obviously with eligible hardware)

    2 steps forward 2 backwards - so the next version is good, the next but one is bad and so on - let's hope that the software developers and the management team will do everything right this time and give us a good operating system. If there are too many instabilities, one sometimes thinks about blocking Microsoft's updates (probably works in the router). I had timeouts and then disconnected my music PC from the Internet and went online with another PC. Then they probably fixed all the errors and I tried again. Then everything worked and the world was fine again. Humans are not robots and make mistakes ...!

    There never was a Windows 9. (" Windows 10 makes such a big leap forward compared to the old versions that you just have to skip a version number to make the difference clear." )

    Not really, I think win 2000 was the only win server with an approach to final users, other server versions as win NT, 2003, 2008 were rock solid in comparison to final users versions, I used win 2000 and 2003 as server and desktop user, inclusive to me windows ME wasn't to bad, as it used similar tweaks and tools from 2000.

    But honestly I think the release/marketing system of Microsoft had an intentional aim to create a bad user experience (usually really stupid stuff) to then fix it in the next version, I never heard of a server version with problems.

    you missing win 8.1 which still runs on my desktop, its very stable and is nothing like win8!

    updating win 10 is a really hazzle, you miss settings, updates screw with things you have disabled and win 10 still experiences blue screen, which win 8.1 never died in my 4 years lifespan on my notebook.

    for win98 you are also wrong, win98 got an update, bcs win98 was buggy as hell, so they decided to release win98SE.

    They will still release win10, bcs win10 is designed to be updated continuously for a lot of years.

    win 10 big update is next ... nothing else.

    Take in consideration all the final versions as win 98 se, win xp sp 3, win 7 sp 1 also windows vista (never used it, just tested the longhorn version with the aero stuff that wasn't even close to the Linux GUI at those times), windows 8.1, I think win 95 also had a nice version but honestly I don't remember.

    Win 8 mayor feature is the support of ARM processors and touchscreen integration, there are no changes or new improvements but a roll back from the windows UI (a new skin sort of) in win 8.1 but that is not enough to make it a different version

    Just as a curiosity the GUI of Linux with Compiz, I installed it at the same time of testing aero (I don't used it I am more of a command line guy, no fancy interfaces), also to point out that a GUI can be changed just as with phones launchers.



    Anyway I will never bore to use win 8 or win 8.1 myself
