Windows 10 20H2 update, also known as (October 2020 Update), was offered free of charge for computers with valid licenses activated by Microsoft servers and will update previous versions of the system through an optional update on Windows Update or through the Microsoft portal for Windows 10, via the web or through the usual ISO images. The version would also serve as the basis for the pre-installed version offered by manufacturers on new equipment.
According to Windows this is going to be a relatively small update, without many apparent changes. As Microsoft speaks, this new version of Windows would offer a set of features and novelties focused on improving the performance and general quality of the operating system. But, although this update is focused on improving the quality of Windows, it would see some very interesting changes.
Good features that this Windows 10 update brought
▸Microsoft Edge
The web browser is still one of the most important and used applications of any PC and Windows 10 20H2 will release the new development of Microsoft based on Chromium instead of the original legacy version of the Windows 10 release. Surely you are already using it because Microsoft is It has been deployed as an update to the previous one and in new versions for Windows 7, Mac and even Linux.
▸New custom task bar
Another novelty will be found in the Windows 10 taskbar, but only if we install the system from scratch. Based on our activity, when you sign in with the Microsoft Account, Windows will know how we use the PC and can automatically pin the applications that may be more interesting to us.
▸User interface
Microsoft continues to refine a component that worked perfectly in Windows 7 and, oddly enough, is still in Windows 10. We like what we’ve seen in previous versions. Cleaner, more modern, attractive and integrated with the rest of the interface under the Fluent Design language This would have a more uniform and partially transparent background for the tiles and has the possibility of disabling the Live Tiles
▸Android apps on the PC
“Your phone” is an app that has been one of Microsoft’s most ambitious bets. This app was intended to allow users to connect and control their phones from the computer. It even allows you to view your mobile screen on your PC. But, due to technical limitations, this last feature is limited only to Samsung high end models.
