Windows 11 24H2: The best NEW features in 2024
Of course, many have understood that the company is preparing a Windows software that will run on PCs, tablets, phones and video game consoles. This is not the case at all in Redmond in the next version of the software.
In reality, "one Windows" means that there will no longer be one team for each version of Windows. Instead, there will be one development team developing all versions of Windows, including the Windows, Windows Phone, and Xbox One operating systems.
One Windows also means one operating system kernel. In the next wave of updates, codenamed "Threshold," the Windows 9 (PC, server, and embedded devices) and Windows RT (tablet), Windows Phone, and Xbox operating systems will be based on a common set of programming code that we know as the NT kernel. In this approach, Microsoft develops a single operating system kernel and then adds the modules needed to run different hardware.
