2 / Custom Control interfaces per device

Microsoft wants Windows 10 real universal operating system: one that not only runs on PCs and mobile devices, but also for example in ‘internet of things’ applications in the coming years will be important. Of course, the user interface will be adapted to each of these devices: a device with a small screen, for example, will be operated by the Metro interface.
3 / Improved ‘Search’ interface
The search bar at the bottom of the Start menu remains on most Windows users are unemployed, but Microsoft added a few powerful new search features to it. Everything you enter, for example, picked nord both your computer and the Internet. All you can expect for the latter Microsoft’s own Bing search engine will be used, and not much more universal use Google.
