After releasing the first Windows 8.1 update earlier this
month, Microsoft is now working on the second update that is expected to arrive
in August with some much requested features.
One of the key features is actually an old feature of
Windows that will be making a comeback: the Start menu. After bringing the
Start button back in the first update, Microsoft will now bring back the entire
Start menu in the second. The menu will be familiar to anyone who has used
Windows 7 and will also feature some live tiles on the side.
Along with the Start menu, another feature being added is
the ability to run Windows 8 modern style applications within windows on the
desktop side. This will let you run your modern apps without having to go over
to the other side and not have them take your entire screen. This will
definitely help those who run a mix of modern style and traditional Windows
apps simultaneously on their system.
These features were said to be part of Windows 9 that will
be arriving next year but it seems Microsoft is pushing for an early release.
