ambitious plans was presented the current version of Windows 8 until the fall of 2012. Above all, the operation has been changed drastically, unlike its predecessors. But the changes seem to have been too extreme, Windows 8 had to take criticism, especially due to lack of use. Therefore, Microsoft now wants apparently as early as next year, the successor to Windows 9 on the market. At least that the journalist and Windows expert Paul Thurrot, which was already noticed in the past by insider knowledge of the Microsoft group of companies.

Windows 9 will therefore receive a total revised user interface especially. This caused in the application of classic PCs to date problems as the “tiles” were optimized for touch-screen computers (tablets). Although exact details are not yet known, but here is expected to be the biggest change to Windows 8.

Modified therefore is also the name, so that users no longer get the new version with the failed predecessor in conjunction. Internally, the project threshold (“threshold”) is called. Finally, it should come as Windows but 9 on the market.
