Previously, there are industry insiders suggesting that Microsoft's next-generation Windows operating system will soon be released next summer, and will provide free or fairly affordable upgrades. Now there are new rumors that the new Windows has entered the Alpha phase and is very certain that it will debut next year.

Recently, a Taiwanese source allegedly a Microsoft official revealed that they have started testing the Windows 9 alpha system, the build is 9622 (currently the Windows 8 system version is build 9200), and said Microsoft The new system released will continue to adhere to the "Metro User Interface" and "Start Screen" basic route is unwavering.

The “Windows 9” operating system in the mouth of the source actually refers to the rumored major upgrade that Microsoft is about to release for Windows 8 "Windows Blue". However, in the new system (upgrade), "Desktop" will remain the main working environment, and Microsoft will make some important improvements, especially the "Taskbar". This means that Microsoft does not intend to restore “start” and “start menu" in new Windows.

According to most Windows 8 users, the only outstanding problem with the new system is that the “Start Screen” instead of “Start Button” makes them feel confused and inexplicable. Some of them have chosen to install third-generation software. Restore the “start” button.
