Microsoft appears to be planning to release an oversized update in the fall of 2021. In addition to previously announced improvements to the user interface, the company is considering adding support for Android apps.
The information comes from a source of it Windows Central. The source says that Microsoft plans to release two major updates to the operating system as always, but the second of them is larger than usual.
Android-apps
According to the source, Microsoft is working on the ability to add Android applications to the Microsoft Store. He can’t tell you more about it yet, except that there is the possibility that the function can already be found in Windows in 2021.
x86-64
An important improvement that Windows Central expects in 2021 is the emulation of 64bit-x86 applications on the ARM version of Windows 10. This makes it possible to run all existing Windows applications with ARM computers. Apple has one with Rosetta 2 similar function introduced in macOS Big Sur.
Windows 10X
Windows Central indicates that Windows 10X will be released in early 2021. Initially, the operating system was intended for foldable dual-screen devices, but later it was modified to simply a lighter version of Windows 10 for cheaper systems. Collapsible systems are still supported by the way.
Microsoft wants to market Windows 10X as a counterpart to Chrome OS, with all the benefits of Chrome OS such as improved security and battery life, with the added ability to run Windows apps. These are apps from the Microsoft Store, although the company also wants to add support for win32 applications in 2022.
Windows 10X may also run on ARM computers. The system cannot be installed separately, but is only supplied in combination with a computer.
