Windows 10 Redstone 2
- The first (codenamed Redstone 2) will likely arrive in
March.
- Microsoft is planning at least two major updates to Windows
10: Redstone 2 in early 2017 and then a Redstone 3 in the summer/fall of 2017.
- Microsoft has just started rolling out Redstone 2 builds for
Insiders to test
- The Redstone 2 Insider Preview is just getting started,
meaning we have several months of development left before this next update is
ready for the public.
- PCs are the first to get new Redstone 2 preview builds, with
Mobile builds following in a few weeks.
- Twitter user WalkingCat has discovered several references to
"Windows 10 Version 1703" in the latest test versions of Microsoft's
operating system. These references refer to the year and month of a release,
and Microsoft has previously used the same codes for its Anniversary Update
(1607) released in July, and a November update (1511) last year.
- Update will focus on productivity improvements for the
desktop, and will bring much-needed features and enhancements to Windows 10
Mobile users.
- Microsoft is expected to detail what the company is planning
to include in its next major Windows 10 update at a special Surface PC event
later this month.
- While Microsoft has started testing some new features of
Windows 10 with Windows Insiders, most of the changes have been fairly minor so
far.
- Microsoft is planning to bring a blue light reduction
feature to Windows 10, alongside improvements to Cortana to help bridge the gap
between mobile devices and PCs.
- Here's what we can expect to see show up in Continuum on
Windows 10 Mobile with Redstone 2:
- Independent Monitor Idle – Let one screen time out while you
keep working on the other one
- Proximity Connect – Keep your phone in your pocket and connect
wirelessly to your dock
- Customizable – Independently customizable Start screens
across connected devices
- More PC-like experience – Enable "win key + type";
Taskbar app pinning, System tray Windowing
