Microsoft Rolls Out Windows 10 Operating System


"Windows 10 delivers on our more personal computing vision, with a natural, mobile and trusted experience. Along with our partners, we're excited to deliver the best Windows ever, which will empower people and organisations around the world to do great things," Myerson said in a statement.

According to a Microsoft statement, upgrading to Windows 10 is easy for customers running a genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 PC or tablet.

People who reserved their upgrade to Windows 10 will be notified in waves when their upgrade is ready to be installed.

For business customers, Windows 10 is available to start deploying within their work environments, and starting August 1, organisations that have volume licensing can upgrade to Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education.

Microsoft said the most secure Windows ever, Windows 10 is delivered as a service and kept automatically up-to-date with innovations and security updates.

Windows 10 offers one experience that will become available on the broadest range of devices, including PCs, tablets, phones, Raspberry Pi, Xbox One, HoloLens and more -- with more than 2,000 devices or configurations already in testing, it said.

The Washington Post said overall, Windows 10 is a solid system.

It's familiar enough so that most people will probably feel comfortable upgrading, with a sprinkling of new user-centric features that shows Microsoft's eyes are on the future.

"Nadella has been clear that it's not enough for the company to get people using its products, it also wants them to enjoy using them. Windows 10 has clearly been designed with that thought in mind -- whether it's enough to convince people to love their Windows PCs remains to be seen," the daily reported.
