New Start menu in Windows 10

Windows 10 has officially hit a billion users and Microsoft recently teased upcoming changes to the software during a very very low-quality video. Today, Microsoft has finally posted high-resolution screenshots of Windows 10’s upcoming changes, which supplies us a stronger examine the new Start menu and other bits and pieces of the refreshed UI.

The new Start menu looks sleeker and simplified, and live tiles are still a part of it for select apps like Weather, News, Mail, and Photos.

As we’ve seen before, the revamped Start menu features new app icons, but older elements haven’t been entirely discontinued yet.

The live and custom colour tiles have disappeared for the foremost part, but these elements haven’t been entirely discontinued as Microsoft continues to be using live tiles for apps like Weather, News and Calendar, where it makes more sense.

The Start menu looks less of a hotchpotch by removing the custom colour for apps that are around since Windows 8.

If you currently use live tiles for other apps, you'll still do so to keep with Microsoft. As you'll within the GIF below, the beginning menu comes with both Fluent Design icons and rounded corners.

In the previous teaser, Panos Panay showed off the new nicely streamlined File Explorer with how clearer and fewer cluttered interface to seem at your files or folders. for a few unknown reasons, Microsoft Edge has replaced File Explorer within the new teaser.

While these improvements are very nice, we still don’t know when this revamped desktop experience will actually arrive. Microsoft hasn’t announced anything thereon front, but it’s expected that these interface changes are visiting be a part of a Windows 10 preview update later this year, and consumers will see them early next year.

Currently, Windows 10 May 2020 Update is scheduled to arrive later in May and 20H2 minor update is predicted to arrive later in 2020.

A new Start menu experience isn't a minor change – so we’ll must until the primary update of 2021 for it to arrive within the assembly branch.
