Microsoft may be gearing up to unveil its next big operating system, Windows 12. The company has been tight-lipped about when we can expect the new OS, or even if it exists. However, the next generation of Windows made a brief appearance at the company’s annual developer keynote, Build 2023.
Windows 11 has created a lot of buzz, and users across the globe are eagerly anticipating their PCs’ fresh new look. During the Build 2023 developer conference, Microsoft highlighted upcoming Windows 11 updates, teasing the fact that they are also working on Windows 12.
During one keynote, attendees noticed a screenshot that mentioned a session called next-gen of Windows, sparking curiosity in the computing world. The company also referenced Next Valley Prototype Design, which may refer to Windows 12.
Rumors suggest that Microsoft is planning to integrate AI into the new OS to enhance how it works, and we may see a floating taskbar instead of the classic one we use now, which is anchored to the bottom of the screen.
It is likely that we’ll see the Windows 12 update in 2024, but there is hope for some exciting features. For example, we may get live wallpapers, which allow for moving and dynamic backgrounds on our desktops, as well as more comprehensive customization options.
Overall, the buzz around Windows 12 is positive, and we are eager to learn more about the new OS and how it will change the way we interact with our PCs. Microsoft has made some questionable choices with Windows 11, providing plenty of lessons to learn and opportunities to improve upon.
