With the release of the latest Windows 10 preview 'Dev' build, Microsoft is offering a glimpse at some of the new features and changes they are developing.
For those unfamiliar, Microsoft added a virtual desktops feature in the Windows 10 April 2018 Update, and it allows you to maintain different desktops for open apps, instances of Microsoft Word, etc.
With Windows 10 Sun Valley update, Microsoft also plans to enable new animations when opening and minimizing windows.
In our tests, we observed that the new animation is now available in the Windows 10 Insider build 21337 for almost all windows transitions.
While there is nothing to test with this new change, users will now find that Windows Terminal and Power Automate Desktop will be pre-installed with Windows 10.
Microsoft has reclassified Notepad as an "Inbox app" as well, which means all three apps will be updated via the Microsoft Store, outside the normal Windows 10 scheduled updates.
