Microsoft has postponed the launch of Windows 10X again – now the release is only expected by the end of 2021
Microsoft hasn’t revealed its plans for Windows 10X. After announcing that the operating system will target conventional single-display computers rather than dual-screen (or flexible displays) devices, the company has not provided any new details, including an estimated launch date for Windows 10X.
In May last year, Microsoft announced that it hopes to begin shipping the first computers based on the new operating system in the first half of 2021. For the company to implement these plans, it needed to sign agreements for the delivery of Windows 10X assemblies, but this did not happen.
Zac Bowden of Windows Central, citing reliable sources, claims that Microsoft has decided to delay the operating system’s launch again to bring its stability to the highest level and make it suitable for everyday use. However, he argues that, despite the long preparation for launch, the first builds of Windows 10X will still not offer users support for Win32 applications.
Bowden says shipments of the first Windows 10X-based devices should begin later this year. When asked by Windows Central to comment on the situation with Windows 10X, Microsoft itself replied that it had nothing to say.
