Windows 11 is barely a year old, but Microsoft is already releasing some information on some Windows 12 features. But don’t think you should just wait for Windows 12 to come – it still has a long time before it will be released and if you haven’t upgraded to Windows 11 yet, now is the time! Microsoft has not revealed much about Windows 12, but what we have seen is very different from previous versions. From what we have seen, there is a floating taskbar dock and a search bar taking top-center position. The widgets panel and Action Centre will move to the top of the screen as well instead of at the bottom where they currently are. After updating your hardware to meet Windows 11 requirements, you should not need to update it any more to upgrade to Windows 12. When computers are caught up to speed and are working off Windows 11, upgrading to Windows 12 should be easy! Not to mention having up to date hardware means better security, so updating your system to work off these new OS versions will not only give you better ease of use, but better security as well. Above all, we’re expecting to see more of the stream of minor improvements that make such a big difference to useability. Computers an already be complicated for most employees, so ease of access is high on the list of essentials when considering this new OS. Not to mention security; making Windows 12 stable and bug free will be the number one priority. That’s all we know so far but when Microsoft reveals more information, we will be sure to share it with you! Are you still on Windows 10 … or even worse, Windows 7? Now is the time to upgrade, and we can help with that.
