Yesterday we announced that Microsoft released Windows 10 build 10240 for Windows Insiders. The "controversial" version is referred to as RTM by all Internet but it continues to be developed by developers.
Microsoft said officially that we should probably forget about what we knew, as with Windows 10 it follows an entirely new mood tactic.
With Windows 10, we first reached the milestone of Windows as a service, so the name of the version with the tag "RTM" doesn't seem to make sense.
Windows will continue to be developed and Microsoft customers will receive updates as soon as the company makes them available.
Windows 10 build 10240 is mostly a bug-fixing release. Of course, what has been significantly improved is the new one browser The company's Edge.
As mentioned in a previous publication, you can at last change the search engine to the browser, which up to the previous version allowed only Bing.
According to the changes that Microsoft claims it has brought to Edge is that it has also improved its performance compared to Chrome. The company released some statistics data to demonstrate performance improvements. So according to the company's tests:
In WebKit Sunspider, Edge is 112% faster than Chrome
On Google Octane, Edge is 11% faster than Chrome
In Apple JetStream, Edge is 37% faster than Chrome
Microsoft has also removed the watermark in this build, a clear sign that this is the version the company plans to make available to consumers worldwide.
You can download this build using Windows Update.
