Microsoft has announced that it will release Windows 10 on 29 July, 2015 and Threshold is the codename given to it. It is also said that Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows. 

Windows 10 is targeted to connect all the Microsoft running devices such as Personal Computers, Windows Phone, Xbox One and Windows Embedded product families, as well as new product categories.

There is good news for die-hard Windows 7 and Windows 8 users because Windows 10 will also be available for them as a free upgrade for the first year.

Windows 10 New Features
