Welcome to Windows 10
Windows 10 is designed to be the best Windows ever.
Tested by millions of users who provided input and ideas, Windows 10 combines familiarity, speed and innovative new
features – including a digital assistant and a brand-new browser – with the bedrock strengths you expect from Windows,
like superior security and compatibility. And for the first time ever, you get free, automatically-enabled updates that help
keep your systems current.
The result is a new Windows experience that‘s fresh yet familiar – and is great for helping you stay organized, have fun,
and get things done.
Key innovations
Windows 10 introduces several innovations to help you get more done across your day and across your devices. From a
digital assistant with an advanced learning ability to the arrival of Xbox on PCs to our first new browser in 20 years, the
new Windows has great new features that we hope you will love exploring.
Cortana
Think of Cortana as your truly personal digital assistant who works across all your Windows 10 devices to help you get
things done,By learning more about you over time, Cortana becomes more useful every day, staying transparent in order
to keep your trust. And because your life is not limited to one device, Cortana is with you on your Windows 10 PC, tablet,
and phone – helping you whenever and wherever you need it.
*Cortana available in select markets at launch, experience may vary by region and device.
Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge is the all-new browser designed to go beyond browsing . With inking capabilities built-in, you can write or
type directly on webpages and share your mark-ups with others. If you value a premium reading experience, there‘s a
feature that allows you to clear away distractions from your online articles and a reading list that organizes your favorite
reads to enjoy later. The improved address bar helps you to find things faster, and with Cortana enabled, you can instantly
move from searching to doing. All in all, Microsoft Edge sweeps away the obstacles between you and your favorite online
activities – for a web experience that‘s more personal, responsive, and all about getting things done.
Find it faster
In a big improvement over typical address bars, Microsoft Edge makes recommendations to speed you to your
online destination. You can also get quick answers for weather, stock, definitions, and calculations – even the most
popular fun facts like ―How tall is the Eiffel Tower?‖ – right from the address bar.

streaming to other devices (beta).

your home network to stream games. To limit streaming to only a few people, select Only from profiles signed
in on this Xbox.
3. Make the connection. On your PC, go to Start button icon > Xbox > Connection, then choose your Xbox and
select Connect. (To find the name of your console, go to Settings > System on your Xbox One.) The Xbox app
will connect to your Xbox One automatically when it’s turned on.
