Only a handful of Windows phones will get the latest update

Windows Cloud can reduce hardware requirements and offer manufacturers another product line. As such, the introduction of low-priced laptops with Windows 10 Cloud could help Microsoft gain substantial ground in the education sector. The main thing separating Windows Cloud from regular Windows?

So what is Windows Cloud?

Microsoft rolled out Windows 10 Insider Preview build 16176 for PC insider in Fast Ring.

Windows Cloud will provide an alternative to Google’s Chromebook, which threatens the Windows OS and automatically ties users to Google’s cloud.

What type of apps can it run?

This means there will be no apps like Steam, etc.

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) has officially sent out press invites for its next big event, which is scheduled to take place in NY on May 2.

“Windows is a service – and the way that that service works is very much based on user feedback”, she told us. Any UWP, Win32 or Centennial app will work. Microsoft’s productivity apps are all on the cloud making it easier for anyone to use them from any device they own. If an app features a titlebar, it will be able to function with Tabbed Shell.

Back in February, Thurrott was able to take a peek at Windows 10 Cloud describing it as closely resembling that of Windows 10 on nearly every aspect.

As of today, Upgrade Advisor is once again working, and you can use it to update your device, assuming that it was supported for an official upgrade.

Despite some improvements to Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) and the operating system update process, the lack of other anticipated Windows 10 Creators Update features left IT underwhelmed.

Windows Cloud vs. Chrome OS?

Microsoft has a whole lot of manufacturers taking care of the hardware. And if it’s going to be what we think it will be, that device could effectively push Chromebooks to the sidelines.

Windows 10 Creators Update is slowly rolling out to users across the globe.

There’s absolutely no ETA available right now as to when a fix would be provided, but Microsoft explains that the error appears after installing April 2017 updates.

When can I try it out?

Whether the company will release a standalone version of Windows Cloud remains to be seen, but we should get to see the first device running Windows Cloud at the company’s event on May 2nd. More recently we’ve been hit with rumours of new Microsoft hardware such as the Surface Pro 5 and a major education event booked for May 2nd. Microsoft launched its original Surface Book to be as cool as possible, and it succeeded on that front.

Many expectations go into this event. We expect Windows 10 Cloud to be just as fast, letting you to boot up your system and be online in less than seconds.
