Hey, guys! I'm Bill from GCFLearnFree.org, and today I want to talk about Windows 10. Windows 10 is the most recent version of
the Microsoft Windows operating system for PCs. It was released in mid-2015. unlike previous versions of Windows, you
may actually be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free. As long as your computer is using Windows 7 or Windows 8, and upgrade before mid-2016. Windows 10 also comes with a lot of features and improvements over previous versions. Let's take a look! OK, so this is the desktop of Windows 10, and it should look pretty familiar if you've ever
used a version of Windows before. Here in the lower-left corner they've reintroduced the Start button. If you click that, you'll get the Start menu,just like a older versions of Windows. From there you can access any program on your computer. Another new feature of Windows 10 is Cortana, a virtual assistant that can help you
create reminders, find files on a computer, and a whole lot
more. Cortana can also use your computer's microphone to hear and answer basic questions. For example, "Hey Cortana. What's the
weather like today?" Cortana: "The forecast shows mostly cloudy skies with a high of 86 and a low of 74." Windows 10 also includes a lot of features that make it even easier to work with multiple windows on the desktop. For example, the new Task View feature allows you to quickly see all the windows you have open and choose the one you want. You can also create virtual desktops, which allows you to keep different windows on different desktops
and stay even more organized. Microsoft Edge is another big feature in Windows 10 It's meant to replace Internet Explorer as
your default web browser and in terms of speed and security it offers
a lot of improvements over IE, but you'll still be able to use Internet Explorer if you need to. I hope you can also see that Windows 10 is not like Windows 8. It's very similar to previous versions
of Windows, and, in general, we recommend that you upgrade to Windows 10 if you
can. It's faster than Windows 7 or Windows 8,
it's more secure, and its more likely to be supported for much
longer than other versions. Anyway, that's all we've got that check out
the rest of our Windows 10 tutorial to learn more.
