Yes, we will talk about Microsoft: It was another week devoted to the madness of online event broadcasting, products, policies and other small, big news that make up the daily life of a community that runs with 1000.
It was another week where companies tried to engage the online audience, with their innovations and news that leave the mouth open.
As you gathered from the title we will talk about Microsoft. Within a week, to attract public interest, it tried to announce a lot, without having done anything substantial. Let's look at the success story of the week that just passed:
We heard and some saw Windows 10 Mobile on their devices as well as the long-awaited extensions of Microsoft Edge.
We discussed the method of installing the extensions in an earlier post, but we will try briefly to get you up to speed.
Windows 10 build 14291 with Edge plugins: Microsoft is working on us
The extensions (there were only 3 on the day of their presentation) are packaged in a .exe. So if you wish to install them, follow the steps described in the video below.
As you can see, Microsoft has once again been innovative; we have never seen such an installation before!
Let's see, however, what happened with the announcement of Windows 10 Mobile that managed to anger almost half (to say the least) of the owners of Windows 8 Phone.
With the announcement of the availability of the new operating system for mobile devices, the company stated that almost all owners of Windows devices will receive the update. Imagine the joy of owners of devices with 512 RAM when they read that even these devices will receive Windows 10 Mobile but with fewer features due to hardware limitations.
The truth:
Microsoft announced immediately afterwards that the availability of Windows 10 Mobile on devices with Windows 8.1:
“It will vary depending on the device manufacturer, the device model, the country or region, the mobile carrier or service provider, hardware limitations and other factors.”
What does this mean?
If you were expecting the new operating system that would come “in waves and to most devices” according to the company’s statements, you should forget about it, at least for now. In short, the operating system is not ready.
It was a wonderful week of product showcase attempts by Microsoft. The company managed, even if in a negative way, to attract consumers' interest, like the comments of the upgrade application… “something went wrong”
