Microsoft shows off Windows X
 

Exclusive to dual-screen and foldable devices.

Software king of the world Microsoft has released a cut down version of Windows which will just run on dual screen and foldable devices.

Dubbed Windows X it will run traditional Windows “legacy” desktop software, not just apps from the Windows Store or the apps you could run on the web which was one of the things which stuffed up Windows RT and Windows 10 S.

The company has a new container technology that will let it run those legacy apps. Windows X is designed for a distinct new wave of devices where its capabilities may be necessary — devices like the just-announced dual-screen Surface Neo and upcoming devices from Asus, Dell, HP, and Lenovo as well.

Ironically it is not designed for Microsoft’s dual-screen devices its new Surface Duo phone, which has really hacked off the Tame Apple Press, runs Android instead.

Windows 10X has a brand-new Start Menu, as was previously leaked, that gives you a list of apps, documents, and files for easy access. In other words, it’s far more like how smartphones and tablets work today.
