Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system developed by Microsoft as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems. Introduced on September 30, 2014,[5] released on July 29, 2015 and in November 2015, Threshold 2 of Windows 10 (v10.0.1586) was released to the public.
First introduced in April 2014 at the Build Conference, Windows 10 aims to address deficiencies in the user interface first introduced by Windows 8 by adding additional mechanics designed to improve the user experience for non-touchscreen devices (such as desk computers and laptops), including a revival of the Start menu seen in Windows 7, a virtual desktop system, and the ability to run Windows Store applications in a window on the desktop rather than full-screen mode.
The virtual desktop system, as well as the ability to run Windows store applications in a window on the desktop from full screen mode, is another goal to overcome the previous shortcomings in the interface that was previously introduced in Windows 8.
The Windows 10 user interface is designed to optimize usage by device type. For non-touch devices, a variation of the previous start menu is used as the display part of the desktop which displays both the traditional list of applications and a search box on the left side according to the Windows 8 live floor on the right.
Windows 10 uses the latest version of DirectX, namely DirectX 12 which was introduced earlier this year at the GDC event, DirectX 12 aims to provide “console-level efficiency” with “near metal” access to hardware resources, reducing CPU and boosting graphics overhead. .
