Windows 10 Threshold 2, l'update con le prime vere novità rinviato a novembre. Windows 10, ancora novità nell'interfaccia grafica sulle build più recenti. Windows 10 Threshold 2 sarà il primo corposo aggiornamento del sistema operativo. Attesa per il mese di novembre, la patch dovrebbe introdurre molte novità per quanto riguarda varie ottimizzazioni sul codice, alcune nuove feature e, stando alle ultime novità che circolano sulla rete, anche diffuse migliorie nell'interfaccia utente. Di recente abbiamo notato la presenza di menu contestuali più coerenti, ma le novità sulla UI non si fermeranno qui.

Windows 10, animazione di chiusura app universale Fra le aggiunte più evidenti troviamo l'animazione di chiusura per le applicazioni universali e native. Differentemente dalle versioni Win32 (con l'interfaccia tradizionale), nella versione attuale del sistema operativo le app dello store non riproducono alcuna animazione alla chiusura. Questa verrà aggiunta probabilmente con Threshold 2, stando almeno alle novità riportate da alcuni utenti che hanno avuto modo di provare le ultime build. Windows 10, nuove icone - Fonte: WinBeta. Windows 10 IP build 10130 quasi pronta per lo Slow Ring. ISO in arrivo - HDblog.it. Microsoft_il_29_luglio_arriva_windows_10_ed_e_gratis-201506012354-tec-rt10324# Windows 10: avvistate le nuove build 10105, 10107 e 10108 | Agg.

Lo sviluppo del sistema operativo Windows 10 continua senza sosta e, nelle scorse ore, sono passate agli onori della cronaca tre nuove release non ancora distribuite ai membri del programma Windows Insider: le build 10105 e 10107, salite sul palco della conferenza Microsoft Ignite, e la build 10108 oggetto di una serie di indiscrezioni diffuse dalla webzine Neowin. Tra gli elementi degni di nota emersi con le nuove build, si segnala la presenza delle Jump List nel menu Start di Windows 10 - feature presente nella build 10105 (ved immagine in apertura), ovvero la possibilità di richiamare un elenco di elementi recenti relativi alla specifica applicazione presente nel menu.

Ad esempio, file, cartelle o siti web organizzati in base al programma utilizzato per aprirli. Tale funzione può essere attivata anche con le attuali build mediante una modifica del registro, ma Microsoft, evidentemente, la sta perfezionando e standardizzando con le successive build. Screenshot tratti dalla build 10108. Windows 10: cosa, come, quando, quanto? Roma - Windows 10 arriverà entro l'estate, ma solo su PC: lo conferma Joe Belfiore, vicepresidente Microsoft e responsabile del design della versione mobile del sistema operativo al centro della nuova strategia tutta cloud, advertising e servizi ad abbonamento della corporation di Redmond.

Sui dispositivi diversi dai PC, ha spiegato Belfiore, Windows 10 farà la sua comparsa nei mesi successivi al lancio della versione dell'OS per computer; HoloLens, Xbox, Surface e gadget mobile saranno interessati da una successiva ondata di lanci "scaglionati" del sistema Windows di nuova generazione, ha riferito il dirigente. Utenti e mercato devono poi abituarsi alla nozione di "Windows come servizio", sostiene il manager, perché l'OS verrà aggiornato con nuove e importanti funzionalità anche dopo il lancio. Alfonso Maruccia. Follow. Spartan si chiamerà Microsoft Edge | 01net. Good luck displacing Windows 7, Microsoft, it's still growing. If it's the first Monday of the month, and it is, it must be time to have a look at desktop operating system market share as recorded by StatCounter and Netmarketshare. It looks like the skids are really under Windows XP now. Netmarketshare has it down from 16.94 per cent to 15.93 per cent. StatCounter has a dip to 10.91 per cent, down from March's 11.21 per cent.

We know there are still big corporate XP users out there, such as the operator of the infamous Fukushima nuclear power plant, and there are anecdotes-a-plenty to be had about pirated XP in developing nations. Perhaps the move's finally on? If so, the two click-counters' data doesn't quite explain where users are going. StatCounter desktop OS market share data April 2014 to April 2015. Windows 7's dominance of the desktop shows why Microsoft will make users of the OS its first migration target for Windows 10 upgrades. Netmarketshare desktop OS data June 14 to April 15. Windows 10: 'Free' can potentially cost a lot. It's been about a year since I’ve felt prompted to write anything; but the recent Microsoft announcements about Windows 10 has brought on the urge.

I'm not really interested about the pricing or upgrade options for consumers as they have all been commented to distraction. My interest is the concept of the Operating System as a service. Whenever anyone changes the goalposts on a supplier-customer relationship, it piques my business interest as there is no such thing as a free lunch -- particularly not from the likes of Microsoft or Apple. I wouldn’t be writing even now, if it was not for an underhand trick that Microsoft has pulled on Windows 7 and 8 users. Microsoft has recently used Windows Update to sneak KB3035583 onto most systems as an optional patch. I got to thinking. I have no doubt that Windows 10 will be released very much as the Insider Preview suggests, with a few tweaks and perhaps some bells and whistles added. The underhanded delivery of KB3035583 does not give confidence.

Streaming Xbox One games to a Windows 10 PC is awesome | The Verge. Ever since Microsoft announced its plans to bring Xbox One game streaming to Windows 10 back in January, I've been dying to try it. While the Xbox One dashboard has been updated to support the new feature, the Xbox one app for Windows 10 isn't quite ready yet. At its Build developers conference in San Francisco this week, Microsoft is demonstrating Xbox One game streaming to Windows 10 PCs to the public for the first time. I got a chance to try it, and it's as awesome as I had hoped. Just plug an Xbox One controller into a Windows 10 PC and you're ready to go It all starts with an Xbox One controller and the Xbox app for Windows 10.

You can plug Xbox One controllers into Windows 10 PCs, and the Xbox app will automatically install the drivers and then you're ready to stream games. Launching games is simple from the Xbox app for Windows 10, you just select the title you want to play and there's a new streaming option at the top. You won't be able to use your Xbox One while you stream games. Microsoft kills off Windows Media Center | The Verge. Microsoft stopped actively developing Windows Media Center in 2009, but the company still shipped an unmodified version in an upgrade pack for Windows 8. The software giant is planning to kill off Media Center in Windows 10, meaning any PCs upgraded from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 will lose the feature. Microsoft confirmed the plan to ZDNet’s Ed Bott in a recent interview. It’s not a surprise move, but Windows Media Center has a passionate and loyal following which will undoubtedly mourn the loss of the feature.

Microsoft first introduced Windows Media Center in 2001 as a separate Windows XP version. It was designed to run fullscreen as a media player, and support television channels from TV tuners. A number of PC makers created dedicated Media Center PCs for use in the living room, but it never really made it mainstream enough for Microsoft to continue developing it fully.

Windows 10 TP: disponibile la nuova build 10049. Spartan c'è - hdblog.it. Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10041 now available. Hi everyone, I’m happy to announce we’re rolling out Build 10041 for PCs to the Fast ring. Like all of the previous preview builds this one comes with a collection of new functionality and bug fixes. The build will only be available through Windows Update for systems already running a previous Windows 10 build. We still intend to release ISOs for builds that go to the Slow ring, but Fast ring builds will be direct downloads only. We’re working hard to bring you a new build of Windows 10 for phones as well but we need a bit more time for that one, and we still expect to support additional phones when we release it. We are continuing to learn and evolve the Windows Insider program as we go, and your feedback is helping us to shape the program as well as Windows 10 itself. For those of you in the Fast ring we do expect to deliver builds with newer features and fixes more often, but you’ll also see more bugs with fewer workarounds.

Here is what’s new for PC Some top issues fixed in this build. Microsoft delivers new Windows 10 preview without Spartan browser | The Verge. Microsoft is releasing a new preview version of Windows 10 today, days after a build leaked to the web and nearly two months since the company’s last public update. Microsoft’s big promise of the Windows 10 development has been a focus on delivering regular builds to testers to gather feedback, but the company has struggled to get its latest release out of the door. Despite that, the new release comes less than a week after it was compiled within Microsoft, an impressive speed that's similar to how Xbox updates are delivered. Disappointingly, this new preview won't include Project Spartan, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer successor. While the software maker had promised the next preview would include a test version of Spartan, that’s not arriving just yet, and it appears the company misspoke.

While Cortana arrived in the previous preview, it was limited to the US. Microsoft is also improving its stylus support in this latest Windows 10 preview. Windows 10 Technical Preview updated to Build 10041 | Operating Systems News | TechRadar. A new Windows 10 Technical Preview build is now rolling out to Windows Insiders. Microsoft announced that Build 10041 is now available to PC users who signed up for the Fast ring. "Like all of the previous preview builds this one comes with a collection of new functionality and bug fixes," said Gabriel Aul, Microsoft General Manager of the OSG Data and Fundamentals Team, in a statement.

Build 10041 is the first Windows 10 Technical Preview update to participants of the Windows Insider program since late January. Microsoft recently announced that it will be pushing out more frequent updates to users in the Fast ring. If you're looking for stability rather than being among the first to try out new features, you should switch to the Slow ring. "10041 was built on Friday, and you're getting it less than 48hrs after the majority of our engineers in the Operating Systems Group receive it," Aul explained. What's new in Build 10041 For now, Build 10041 is available through Windows Update. Gallery: Windows 10 technical preview build 10041 | Windows Central. The latest, 10041 build of the Windows 10 technical preview hasn't been in hand long, but already there's a few things that stand out. There are some nice new features present in the build and visually the UI is beginning to come together. There's still a lot of work to be done on it before that summer launch timeframe, but from the new look login screen through to the translucent start menu and everything in between, it's starting to get somewhere.

While we're picking through everything, check out a whole bunch of images below. Build di Windows 10 a velocità grottesca: Microsoft ci pensa - ictBusiness.it. Le nuove “prove tecniche” di Windows 10, cioè le build destinate a chi è iscritto al programma Windows Insider, arriveranno con maggiore frequenza. Con quale frequenza? Microsoft non sa dirlo. Gabe Aul, general manager del gruppo Osg Data and Fundamentals, su Twitter e attraverso un blogpost ha cercato di spiegare il perché e il per come sia tanto difficile stabilire una cadenza regolare oppure anticipare con sicurezza la data dei rilasci. In risposta, a quanto pare, a numerosi solleciti e domande giunte dagli sviluppatori e dagli utenti Microsoft più entusiasti, ansiosi di poter testare nuove build del sistema operativo. “Il tema che ha dominato i miei feed di Twitter nelle ultime due settimane è: ‘Voglio la prossima build!’”

Proseguendo nel suo intervento, Aul ha spiegato che Microsoft starebbe considerando di l’idea di rilasci più frequenti di nuove build, per Windows 10 e per il futuro. Lo strumento Action Center, una delle novità di Windows 10. Analyst Thinks Microsoft Will Lose Market Share, Despite Windows 10. Microsoft is hard at work on Windows 10, with the new operating system set for launch later this year. But some market watchers still believe that the Windows platform will lose share. Despite the launch of the new OS. At least one analyst thinks that this is a very real possibility. Bob O’Donnell, a prominent technology analyst, is of the view that the Windows ecosystem will shrink from its current share of 90.4% of the desktop market last year to around 88.7% in 2015. The reason? Growth registered by both Google and Apple with their Chrome OS and Mac OS X platforms. Apple is forecasted to grab around 6.9% of the PC market this year, a small increase from the 6.2% it had claim to in 2014.

If it holds true, then Microsoft will have a little worry on its hands. Difficult, but a very possible scenario, nevertheless. The dip may not be down to Windows 10, however, but just a signal that interest in desktop platforms is waning. M.windowscentral. A new rumor about DirectX 12, the upcoming graphics API from Microsoft that will be include with the launch of Windows 10, suggests that it will allow graphics cards from both NVIDIA and AMD to be used in one PC gaming rig. According to what unnamed sources told Tom's Hardware, DirectX 12 will have a feature called Explicit Asynchronous Multi-GPU, which will allow for multiple GPUs to be combined for use in a game, such as Fable Legends or an application. What does this mean? It states: "The source said that with binding the multiple GPUs together, DirectX 12 treats the entire graphics subsystem as a single, more powerful graphics card. Thus, users get the robustness of a running a single GPU, but with multiple graphics cards.

" The same article also claims that DirectX 12 will let PC gamers install an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card inside their rig alongside an AMD Radeon card. Source: Tom's Hardware. Windows 10's Battery Saver feature tested -- and found lacking. Windows 10 Technical Preview - Raffaele Fanizzi. Niente male questo Windows 10. Da buon appassionato di informatica che segue il mondo di Windows dall'ormai vetusto Windows 3.11, non potevo di certo resistere all'irrefrenabile voglia di provare la Technical Preview di Windows 10 che Microsoft ha rilasciato solo poche ora fa. La prima osservazione che mi è venuta in mente osservando la sua UI è che questo Windows 10 ha un po' il sapore di Windows 7 e nel fare questa affermazione vi assicuro che la mia reazione non è stata "finalmente sono tornati a Windows 7", ma ne sto prendendo semplicemente atto. Ritengo, infatti, che Windows 8 da questo punto di vista sia stato un sistema operativo molto coraggioso e che sia stato bistrattato il più delle volte ingenerosamente.

Siamo d'accordo sul fatto che la strada di introdurre così bruscamente la nuova interfaccia Metro Style non sia stata quella migliore, specie per chi continua ad utilizzare Windows su dispositivi non dotati di display touchscreen.
