Microsoft Windows 10: A robust operating system

Microsoft Windows 10 is a widely used operating system worldwide, and for good reason. It offers all the industry standard applications for which Microsoft is well known, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. When you download Microsoft Windows 10, it preinstalls the signature software on your machine. 

Beyond that, Microsoft Windows 10 for Windows platforms offers sophisticated updates, like Microsoft Edge, its web browser. Edge runs on the Chromium platform, making it Microsoft's most advanced and efficient browser yet.

Why download Microsoft Windows 10?

Add-ons and useful features

With Windows being the world's most widely used OS, Microsoft has taken note of popular features from other platforms. Windows 10 provides advanced integrated features and customizations that let you tailor your OS to the needs of your business.

  • Go-to tools like a Camera, Calculator, Voice Recorder, and Paint 3D pair with daily use apps like News, Weather, and Maps.
  • Windows 10 offers Edge extensions, such as privacy and ad-blocking extensions, including AdGuard or uBlock Origin, and there is the option to utilize Chrome extensions in Edge via the Chrome Web Store.
  • Windows 10 includes the Windows 10 Store, which acts as a single source to access Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps, which work across tablets, desktop PCs, phones, the Surface Hub, and more in the future. 
  • Windows 10's integration with Microsoft 365 means you'll have all the crucial software you need, plus the option to access many more applications, which can sync with their mobile versions on iOS or Android.

Solid and wide-ranging

While Microsoft has moved on to Windows 11, Windows 10 will be supported by Microsoft through at least 2025, and it is not uncommon for businesses to remain with a past version of a platform or office suite that suits their needs well. 

Windows 10 offers a great way to become acquainted with how Microsoft will treat the future of its operating systems. Features like Nearby Sharing allow you to quickly send images and files, while Windows 10's gaming capabilities are the best available. The Xbox and Windows 10 Stores now act as one, and Windows 10's Xbox app displays your activity feed and includes a game DVR with the ability to stream games from an Xbox One to the PC.

Key features of Microsoft Windows 10

Customization and everything you need 

Windows 10 now offers the capability to access biometric security features like using your fingerprint for verification via Windows Hello.

Cortana uses a chat-style format; you can navigate its results panel around the screen to your preferred size and placement.

Integration with your platform

While intended for and optimal on PC platforms, one of the best benefits of Windows 10 is its extension to other platforms. Windows 10's UWP apps run within containers, meaning they do not interfere with your system.
