Whats next for Windows 10: 2021 and beyond
Summary
• See "Microsoft kicks off its Windows 10 20H2 feature rollout" If youre dreading yet another time-consuming, potentially destabilizing major update, you can relax. One overlooked detail in that story caught my eye, though: "Microsoft may end up releasing just one feature update per year for Windows 10 starting in 2021." As IT departments have come to terms with the idea that remote work just might be here to stay, theyve also discovered that reliable, modern hardware makes a difference. Its still too early to gauge the impact of Arm processors on the PC marketplace, although you can bet that Microsoft and its OEM partners will be watching Apples first generation of Arm-based Macs with keen interest. Just this month, in fact, Microsoft was reportedly installing Office PWAs automatically on Windows 10 devices, as an unintended side effect of the new Edge browser.
