On October 1, Microsoft unveiled the first draft of the successor to Windows 8, once code named "Threshold", now officially dubbed "Windows 10". The company released the first draft of Windows 10 in the form of a Technical Preview for businesses and other partners. With this new version of Windows, Microsoft has two major objectives: correct the strategic mistakes of Windows 8, and migrate all current Windows users (be they on XP, Vista, 7 or 8/8.1) to Windows 10.
1. The Return of the Start Menu
The Start menu is back, folks! This is perhaps the most iconic feature of Windows 10. It epitomizes how Microsoft is finally reacting to the opinions of the majority of its user base: that removing the Start menu was a mistake, and the idea that a single touch-based interface would be appropriate for the typical desktop or laptop was absurd.
2. Metro apps can be run simultaneously with Desktop apps
Rather than forcing you into the full-screen Metro interface, Windows 10 will let you run Metro apps on the Desktop in a window. In theory this will mean that mouse-and-keyboard users might now actually use Metro apps, which in turn might kickstart the arrival of some better apps in the Windows Store.
3. Snap Assist
Every app in Windows 10 can be dynamically resized in a window.What’s neat, though, is that once you snap an app,
To snap a desktop window, left-click its window title bar, hold your mouse down, and then drag it to either the left or right edges of your screen. You’ll see a transparent overlay appear, showing you where the window will be placed. Release your mouse button to snap the window there. Windows 10 suggests another, similar app that you might want to snap next to it, from a small collection of windows.
4. Task View
Windows 10 has a new button (and Alt-Tab menu it seems) that pops up the Task View interface. It’s meant to improve the multitasking experience for novice users.
5. Virtual Desktop
If you’re running a multimonitor set-up, chances are you’re already allocating different applications to different screens: a browser window on one display, Outlook on another, and maybe a chat app on your docked notebook.
But what if you have one monitor, tapping the task view button—or more usefully, Windows+TAB—swaps between desktops, which are displayed on the bottom of the display. So if you have a “project screen” with PowerPoint, a browser window, and OneNote all contained within it, you can swap to an entirely different virtual desktop, or workspace

6. The Charms Bar, Redesigned
In Windows 8 and 8.1, the Charms Bar had essentially no use on the desktop whatsoever. In Windows 10, it disappears completely in this environment and will now only be available on tablets and other touchscreen-enabled PCs. The features of the Charms Bar are now located inside a new menu that appears on the titlebar of Windows Metro app windows.
7. Recently and Frequently used files and folders
In Windows 10, now you can see the file history
i.e, files and folder you recently used
8. Notification Center
Born in version 8.1 of Windows Phone, the centralized Notifications Center will also appear in Windows 10. It will house all alerts, reminders and notifications issued by the system and by applications. Operation will be very similar to Windows Phone 8.1, with notifications grouped by app.
9. Command Prompt
Windows 10’s prompt addresses this, finally supporting native selection and line wraps. Accompanying this change is the ability to quickly paste text into the command prompt without needing to use context menus or the menubar—good old ctrl-v will now drop the clipboard’s contents onto the command line, rather than inserting a ^V character. There are additional control key shortcuts too, finally bringing standard copy, paste, and find functionality to the long-neglected shell. Also huge is the command window’s new ability to re-flow text as the window is resized, rather than simply growing a horizontal scrollbar. As with the other features listed above, this is something that other operating systems have had in their text shells for ages, and it will be a wonderfully welcome feature when it arrives.
10. Internet Explorer LOL :D
Microsoft hasn’t given up on its browser either. On the contrary, Windows 10 will be sporting a version of Internet Explorer (12) which will finally be able to accommodate extensions — like Chrome and Firefox.
