Hi dude , Here I want to share you one easy way to get retail products for Microsoft Office
,Windows 7,windows 8,windows server 2012 R2, Click Here [http://www.windowskeyoffer.com/]  to our
store ,we provide genuine licenses with lower price .
Greg Shultz examines the current state of the Windows 10 release cycle
and then takes a look at some potential new features. 
The Windows 10 release cycle and potential new
features revealed 
As you may recall, when Microsoft began the Windows 10 Technical Preview program, they
were telling users that rather than three to six months between new test builds, we would
encounter  something  more  along  the  lines  of  a  one  month  turnaround.  With  the  initial
release of the Windows 10 Technical Preview, Build 9841, being on September 30, 2014,
followed by Build 9860 on October 21, and Build 9879 on November 12, we were off to a
great  start  ­­  around  three  weeks  between  each  release.  Between  Build  9879  and  Build
9926, we had to wait about 10 weeks, but that was over the holidays, and Microsoft warned
us ahead of time that there would be a long lapse.

As of this writing, it has been close to eight weeks since Build 9926 arrived. In other words,
if Microsoft  had been  able to keep up with  their rapid release schedule,  we should have
been using a post­9926 build of Windows 10 for around four weeks now. Alas, that isn't the
case.
According  to  a  recent  tweet  by  Gabriel  Aul,  of  Microsoft's  Windows  Insider  program,  the
Windows 10 developers have been battling one bug that's preventing them from releasing
another  build  to  the  Fast  ring  [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Insider]    of  the  Windows
Insider  program.  In  addition,  he  added  a  post  on  the  Blogging  Windows  site  titled
"Frequency  and  predictability  of  builds  for  Windows  Insiders
[http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/03/09/frequency­and­predictability­of­builds­for­
windows­insiders/] ," where he talks about the build and release cycle for Windows 10.
Despite Microsoft's slack, Build 10036 unofficially leaked onto the web this past weekend
and is revealing some potential new features in Windows 10. Since we can't get our hands
on an official new build of Windows 10, I thought that I'd take a look at a couple of these
new features that will probably show up in the next official build ­­ whenever that may be.
Oh,  and  before  I  move  on  here,  I  should  point  out  that  Aul  also  tweeted
[https://twitter.com/GabeAul/status/577491259666739200]  that 10036 will not be the next official
build.
While there's no guarantee that these features will be in the next build, it makes sense that
they'll eventually be a part of Windows 10.
As  you  may  remember,  back  in  November  of  2014,  I  wrote  about  Windows  10's  virtual
desktop feature called Task View. While I was very impressed with Task View at that time, I
wrote that it had a very basic feature set that I imagined would be added to in the future.
Well,  according  to  those  who  downloaded  and  installed  Build  10036,  Task  View  has  two
new features worth noting.
First, in the current builds of Windows 10, all desktops share the same Taskbar. The only
way  to  tell  which  buttons  are  which  on  the  Taskbar  is  by  a  very  subtle  overlay.  Taskbar
buttons of applications running on the current desktop have a translucent overlay on top of
them. With Taskbar buttons of applications that are running on a different desktop, you'll see
that the translucent overlay actually appears below the button's icon. While that works, it's
not very intuitive.
In  Build  10036,  you  have  the  option  to  configure  Task  view  to  only  show  buttons  on  the
Taskbar  for  applications  that  are  open  on  a  particular  the  desktop.  In  other  words,  each
desktop has its own Taskbar. This feature will really make it easier to take advantage of
using multiple desktops to keep your work separated.

Second, in the current builds of Windows 10, using the [Alt]+[Tab] keyboard shortcut will
cycle through all open applications, regardless of which desktop they are on. In Build 10036,
you have the option to configure Task view to only cycle through the open applications on
the  current  desktop.  Again,  this  will  make  it  easier  to  take  advantage  of  using  multiple
desktops to keep your work separated.
In  the  current  builds  of  Windows  10,  the  Start  Menu  looks  like  Microsoft  has  basically
grafted the Start Screen onto the Start Menu. On the left side of the menu, you'll find all your
applications and links to items that have traditionally been on right side. On the right side of
the menu is a fly­out panel designed for the Modern App tiles, including Live Tiles. In Build
10036,  as  in  Build  9926,  you  can  maximize  expand  the  Start  Menu  to  full  screen  mode.
When you do, you get the impression that the Start Menu has been grafted onto the Start
Screen. However, the Start Screen in Build 10036 is translucent.
