The Microsoft Event stream actually kicked off with a whimper; some major issues meant most of the people watching only saw the buffering icon for quite a bit. But eventually, we get introduced to Panos Panay, Microsoft’s Chief Product Officer, who introduces us to Windows 11.
As you can see, perhaps the first major visual change people will notice is the centred Start Menu. Gone are the Windows 8 and Windows 10 Start Menu Live Tiles, and instead is a simplified and sleek menu, almost reminiscent of a custom Android launcher. The Start Menu is also ‘cloud-powered’, where it integrates your OneDrive into it. The other big visual improvement are translucent layers and rounded corners for your windows.
Digging deeper, the Microsoft store has been revamped too. Panay says that they’ve rebuilt the Microsoft from the ground up for improved speed and search. One huge change in Windows 11 is native support for Android apps, using Intel Bridge technology. If you want to download Android apps, it can be done through the Amazon Appstore, which in turn you can get through the new Microsoft Store.
Another major improvement from Windows 10 is the Snap Layouts feature, which should greatly benefit multitaskers. This will let you tile multiple windows in a variety of layouts on your display. You can also save the layout into a Snap Group. For example, if you have a layout of four different windows of Microsoft Word but need to check something on Chrome, you can switch between the single Chrome window and your Snap Group of four Word instances without needing to reconfigure your layout everytime. There’s also an improved version of the multiple desktops feature currently in Windows 10.
