Windows 9 Threshold: All you need to know about the next Windows<\/h2>\n

When is Windows 9 coming out and what can you expect? We take a look at the expected Windows 9 release date, leaked Windows 9 screenshots and how the Windows 9 Start Menu looks set to change, hopefully for the better.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Windows 9, codenamed Windows Threshold, is a big deal for Microsoft. While\u00a0Windows 8.1<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Windows 8.1 Update 1<\/a>\u00a0have done a little to repair the damage from its most recent, and largely unpopular, operating system, it’s clear Microsoft needs to pull a Windows 7 out of its hat, not a another Vista-style debacle.<\/p>\n

As per usual, there are more than a few rumours, leaks and hints being dropped everywhere, so we’ve collected all the most pertinent stories and clues into one round-up so you can keep up-to-date. Heard something we haven’t? Feel free to let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n

Windows 9 Release Date: When is Windows 9 coming out?<\/h2>\n

There are a few schools of thought on the Windows 9 release date. One suggests it’s planned for April 2015, which would make it just under two years since Windows 8 was released. This is a reasonably safe bet for a few reasons:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Windows 8 is struggling, so getting the ‘next version’ out of the door is important to make people forget<\/li>\n
  2. It has been suggested that Microsoft wants to reduce the gaps between releases<\/li>\n
  3. The original report came from respected Microsoft\u00a0reporter<\/a>\u00a0Paul Thurrot.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
