As expected, Microsoft today announced a new edition operating system named “Windows 10 S” και απευθύνεται ειδικά σε σχολεία και περιορίζεται στις εφαρμογές που υπάρχουν στο Windows Store.
We've heard the new version of Windows like it Windows 10 Cloud when it was still in the process of development.
Windows 10 S can only run apps uploaded to the Windows Store, and Microsoft says (re-framing positively) that a key feature security, because everything will be completely safe as it will be verified by the company itself.
Windows 10 S is easy to install and manage, as Microsoft's Terry Myerson explained, explaining that teachers or IT staff can use special tools to quickly set up the devices and prepare them for their classes.
Devices running Windows 10 S will be available starting at $189 and will come with a free Minecraft Education Edition subscription. In addition, the Windows 10 S operating system will be available for free to all schools using Windows 10 Pro on their computers.
But every time users will attempt to launch a software of its platformς Win32 σε μια device with Windows 10 S, they will appear with a notification saying that only apps from the Windows Store are allowed.
According to Microsoft there are alternatives solutions for every app in the Store, and there isn't one available Windows 10 S will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro directly from the Windows Store, apparently by paying a license.
Το λειτουργικό Windοws 10 S θα κυκλοφορήσει αυτό αυτό το καλοκαίρι,”εγκαίρως για τη νέα σχολική χρονιά”, εξήγησε ο Myerson, και ανέφερε ότι η Acer, η ASUS, η Dell, η Fujitsu, η HP, η Samsung and Toshiba will be some of the companies that will install the OS on their upcoming devices.
It remains to be seen how successful this new version of Microsoft's operating system is to hit the Chromebooks.
