Windows 12 - Microsoft starts work from March

No, it's not a typo. According to our information, Microsoft will start preparing for Windows 12 in March. In the run-up, they had already been looking for employees who would then provide additional support to the team. SwiftOnSecurity also confirms this information.



That doesn't mean that we'll see a new Windows 12 tomorrow. This can still drag on, since you start (almost) from scratch. One can assume that the Windows 10 substructure will then be completely abandoned. Windows 11 still has this substructure.

That means in plain English: What you started with Windows 10 X, to do everything new, is then really implemented in Windows 12. The latest changes in the Insider already show where the path is going. Leave old " camels " aside and only implement current things.

PS: The information from SwiftOnSecurity that two TPM modules are then required is of course a joke. But if you start now, also for the Pro, you need an internet connection and later also an MS account, you can already imagine in which direction things are going.

The core elements, some of which Microsoft has already launched with Windows 11 or will launch with the fall 2022 update (“22H2”), include:

• Mandatory for Microsoft account in Home and Pro
• An even stronger focus on TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot
• Integration of the security chip “ Microsoft Pluton ”
• Completely new substructure without the legacy
• Take up approaches from Windows 10X

Windows 12 - Microsoft beginnt ab März mit der Arbeit

Nein, es ist kein Tippfehler. Unseren Infos zufolge beginnt Microsoft im März mit den Vorbereitungen für Windows 12. Im Vorfeld hatte man schon nach Mitarbeitern gesucht, die das Team dann zusätzlich unterstützen. Auch SwiftOnSecurity bestätigt diese Info. Das bedeutet jetzt…

What I can't imagine is what the world will be like in 15 or 20 years time! Will we still have computers?! People thought laptops would die out when ipads came along and they didn't. Somehow I think we will always need keyboards.

Smart phones too. Everywhere I go people have therir noses buried in their smart phones.

Yeah, me too cause knowing me I will probably go ahead and buy. lol

So how about this for a theory?

Windows 12 will just be a 'Pluton-enabled' fork of Windows 11. If so, then it will share the same features and lifecycle, living (and dying) in parallel with Windows 11. If true, then that may in fact be good news for those running W11 on unsupported devices. It means that MS will have no need to pull the plug, just say that unsupported W11 can continue to get updates, but W12 cannot be installed.

... W11 can continue to get updates, but W12 cannot be installed.

Works for me! I have this nauseous gut feeling W12 is gonna suck anyway!

Hi there
That's now but in the not to distant future a lot of high speed Internet can be delivered cheaply by satellite avoiding need for cabling etc in rural and remote areas.

Satellite is very expensive and way more unreliable.

I'm not so sure about that -- I remember even back as far as W7 you could get an OEM copy if you just bought something simple like a Mouse -- the OEM version was only around 5USD compared with around 100 USD for the retail so not really sure of the validity of your argument.

I never saw any version of Windows being sold for $5.00 no matter what device one bought. I remember the one time that we had to overpay to buy an update disk for Windows to fix their mistakes. The sales of MS and OEM products may not be a big cash cow, but it is a money maker.

Both my parents were avid silver surfers in their 80s. My Mother happily went from 7 to 10. My Father was reluctant to give up 7 and in his late 80s didn't like 10 - so he switched to an imac

God rest their souls, but my parents couldn't even set the time on the VCR let alone use a computer.

Well lets all hope that Putin & the World along witth China, USA and the other country's that has nuclear bombs keep their fingers off the triggers or none of us will have to worry about Windows 12, what a way to wake up & find the invasion of Ukraine this morning. Pray for Peace ...............

Yes indeed. I am trying to analyse it. Does Putin genuinely feel threatened by Nato expansion further into the East - or is he just wanting to put things back how they were before 1990. Whichever, it's an act of aggression.

 

[Winuser]

wanting to put things back how they were before 1990.

That's what I'm thinking. Although there may be more behind it.

 

[Hazel123]

I think you may be right - seems to be a personal thing between Ukraine President and Putin in something I read. Ukraine President locked up permanently, a friend of Putin's who is Godfather to Putin's daughter. And all kinds of political stuff from various people in Ukraine.

 

[jerrypc1]

No, but then I doubt anyone will. Run a search and try to find a desktop CPU with the Pluton architecture. I could be wrong, but there are few out there (if any at this point).

I for one will not

Anything from Official MS or even close to Official MS, direct, not via a grapevine, that's says this Win 12 is more than a twinkle in someone's eye?

Strange today with all the problems in Ukraine - MS stock and in general the NASDAQ closed remarkably higher -- without delving in to the dreadful politics there probably Ms is unaffected by it all. The market is still totally unpredictable and anybody who says the can get it right most of time is disemenating a whole load of "Bovine Scatology". Even the legendary Warren Buffet gets it wrong at times. !!

With the last Dev build, IMHO, they did exactly that.
