Windows 12 Release Date
Currently, all fingers point to 2024 for the launch of Windows 12. Given the three-year delay between the most recent version, we expect Windows 12 to follow suite. Its predecessor, Windows 11 was introduced in 2021. Therefore, we all expect Windows 12 to become available to customers in 2024.
Another source, however, claims that since the 2021 release of Windows 11, a number of consumers have complained about the software. And the company was eager to create a workaround as a result, which it did by creating Windows 12. Given how anxious consumers are for the new version, it is projected that Windows 12’s beta release will occur in March 2023.
Windows 12 Features(Upcoming)
New Desktop User Interface: With Windows 12, a brand-new desktop user interface that has never been seen before will be released. The new user interface has a floating taskbar with a status bar that looks like macOS on top.
Deeper AI Integration with Windows 12: There will be more AI Integration in Microsoft Windows 12. Microsoft has contributed significantly to OpenAI. As a result, we expect to see the powerful potential of technologies like ChatGPT and DALL-E 2. Microsoft will probably include a lot of the OpenAI technologies in Windows 12.
Improve Windows Explorer and Notepad: File Explorer has already seen the inclusion of tabs in previous updates. That tab support is also coming to Notepads has been confirmed by a recent leak by a Microsoft employee. It is possible to launch many Notepad windows simultaneously, which allows users to edit different text files at the same time. Microsoft is also updating Windows File Explorer with a number of new features.
Other Improvements to Expect: Another system improvements to expect will be support for touch-screen devices as well as keyboards. The Control panel will also be included in the Settings tab.
