While we knew about the development of Windows 8.1 Update 1, this news follows Microsoft's recent confirmation of update development. The company announced what we know as Update 1 as a "spring" update for Windows 8.1 a few days ago at the Mobile World Congress press event.
Windows 8.1 Update 1 is an update aimed at making the operating system more attractive to keyboard and mouse users. Changes include a new option to pin Metro-style apps to the taskbar, the ability to show running apps on the taskbar, and new power options on the Start screen. Non-touch devices also get the ability to close and minimize Metro-style apps with a new title bar that appears at the top of the screen.
