Watch Windows 10’s Top New Features in Action [Video]

Windows 10 is the surprising name of Microsoft’s new operating system, but apart from the designation, there’s nothing new except from the features we’ve been reporting about for the last couple of months.

The Start menu will finally be brought back and together with it, Microsoft is also introducing a new search option that allows users to look for information not only locally, but also online. Of course, Bing powers the search option, just like it was the case with the similar feature on the Start screen. At the same time, Microsoft is introducing multiple desktops, which are great for those working with multiple apps at the same time and want to keep things organized on their screen. Windows 10 Preview will be available for download tomorrow, but the company warns that since it’s an unfinished product, it’s natural to expect bugs, issues, and other problems after you install it.

Of course, it also wants users to send their feedback and help the company improve performance of the new operating system before it hits the market in spring 2015, so make sure that you submit any bugs you find to be fixed by company’s engineers. The video demo was presented by Microsoft’s Joe Belfiore and includes only a handful of features, so to see all new things in Windows 10, it’s better to download the preview build.

Watch Windows VP Joe Belfiore talk about some of the features in Windows 10, like the new Start menu, multiple desktops, and improved multi-tasking. Learn how you can be part of creating the best Windows yet with the Tech Preview and the Windows Insider Program.
