Reportedly Microsoft will be launching its next major Windows 10 update on April 11th this year. The update called Creators Update is touted to add many innovative features.
According to Techradar, three sources "close" to Microsoft's product planning has claimed that the release of the Creators Update, earlier code-named "Redstone 2" will commence on April 11th. However, it is believed Microsoft will release the new update gradually in various lots, thus avoiding its servers to overload with concurrent downloads. This will also provide a smooth download for every Windows user.
The Creators Update is supposed to bring in facilities, creativity and gaming improvements to Microsoft's "comeback" operating system. It is also expected to bring in improvements to the OS's transparency and privacy protocols. However, an even bigger update named "Redstone 3" internally from Microsoft is also anticipated during the fourth quarter of the year. This will also break the sequence that Microsoft generally follows for announcing their smaller updates in autumn or winter and bigger ones in the spring or summer.
According to Trusted Reviews, the Creators Update is currently being tested by "Insiders" of Microsoft. The new update will bring in a host of 3D creation tools like 3D paint and PowerPoint 3D. A number of mixed reality experiences will also be available on the new update thanks to the headsets from companies like HP, Lenovo, Dell, Acer, and Asus.
There is reportedly going to be a new Game Mode in the Windows Creators Update. This will focus CPU resources on gaming experiences. It is expected to give out a much better gaming experience to its users. Apart from this, it is also being rumored that the Creators Update is bringing in native 4K changes in gaming broadcasting through "Beam" which is ironically a rival to Microsoft's own Twitch streaming.
As per the experts, many welcomes changes and exciting updates will be a part of the Creators Update. Microsoft is expected to roll it out well before this year's "Build 2017" commences on May 10th.
