We're now only a few weeks away from the launch of the next big Windows 10 update. This update is being called, somewhat confusingly, the "Creators" update. This is also what they called the last update in April. This is to draw attention to the fact that the new features are also targeted at content creators.

Tech giant Microsoft have announced that they will be retiring the "Office 365" brand soon and will be replacing it with "Microsoft 365".

As the latest “Creators Update” is still rolling out to users of Microsoft’s Windows 10 operating system, they are already beginning to outline some of the new features that will be included in the next major update – currently planned for the autumn.

All support for Microsoft's unloved "Vista" operating system will be ending this month. While support continued to be offered to organisations stuck on Windows XP users (assuming they were willing to pay for it), no such support will be made available to Vista users.

The next big Windows 10 update (dubbed the "Creators Update") is due to launch on April 11th. It will be made available as an automatic compulsory update from that date.

Microsoft have announced that Flash will be disabled by default in their Edge browser in its next major update.

Microsoft have announced a raft of enhancements coming to their Windows 10 operating system in the first part of 2017. As with the last feature updates, these will be released free to all Windows 10 users.

As we have mentioned in most of the last few newsletters, the limited time offer to upgrade to Windows 10 for free has now ended. Friday was the last day to take advantage of this. This is exactly one year since Windows 10 was made generally available to the public.
