Zac Bowden of Windows Central revealed that Microsoft has decided to delay the launch of the Windows 10X operating system a little longer to ensure that the product is fully operational.
Back in May last year, a Microsoft spokesman said in an interview with Windows Central that the company hopes to begin rolling out Windows 10X to its first single-screen PCs in the first half of 2021. Now Microsoft plans to do so in the second half of the year.
Some may wonder if this extra time will allow for the addition of support for local Win32 applications. As a reminder, this feature was removed when the company refocused its product on low-cost PCs. Zach Bowden heard from insiders that support for local Win32 apps will still not be rolled out to Windows 10X at launch, as the company will instead be promoting Windows Virtual Desktop and Cloud PC as solutions for legacy apps.
Windows 10X will continue to target low-cost PCs for schools and businesses. At least this year, Windows 10X won’t be targeting consumer devices. Instead, existing Windows 10 PCs will receive a big Sun Valley update rumored to add new features and a modern user experience.
