Changing Start menu colors in Windows 9

Changing Start menu colors in Windows 9



Information leak about what may be included in the next version of "Windows Operating System", code name "Threshold" has been leaked. Above leaked screenshots shows that its "Start Menu" may change colors which based on the background theme selected by the "User" for the Operating System. This screenshots posted on "PCportal.org.ru" website and would seem to indicate "Microsoft" will offer some small but still pretty customization options for the returning "Start Menu" in Threshold, which "may" or "may not" be called Windows 9 when it is released.. Note that the if these images are accurate, Microsoft could still remove this feature before the final version of Threshold goes live. In additional, long time Microsoft watcher "Paul Thurrott" has a few more new tidbits about Threshold in a new article, based on what looks like first hand knowledge of an early build of the Oerarting System. One interesting thing he notes is a new "Share Button" that he is said found on the Share tab in File Explorer. He states this is similar to the button found on Windows Phone platform and will let users share some items with the certain Modern Windows Universal Applications. Please note that the Threshold is still several months from its official release and features will likely be added, changed or discarded before it is launched. Microsoft Corporation would be hold a press event in "San Francisco" on "September 30th" to talk about how the next version of "Windows OS" will work with enterprise customers but, that event will not be live streamed on the Internet. What do you think about the next version of Windows? Enjoy !!! Dont forget to put your comments here.
