Microsoft will soon be testing a new feature in Windows 10 that could change the way you use your computer forever. It's a feature you've already been using for years.
Meet Tabs, or as Microsoft calls them, 'Sets.'
The company isn't sure if the specific name fits the "new" feature, but the idea is to bring the tabs we know from browsers to almost all Windows apps.
Yes, we are talking about a grouping of different applications in one window, like the tabs we know from browsers.
Watch the explanatory video prepared by Microsoft:
The new Sets feature could help you keep apps related to a group of apps that have specific tasks, projects, or ideas, rather than just opening in windows that you have to constantly switch between.
In Documents, for example, you could theoretically combine a PDF reader, a PowerPoint presentation, and notes all in one tabbed window.
Tabs will obviously be more intuitive for the average user. After all, tab organization is already familiar to us, the way we browse the web and use in many Web applications.
It's basically how Chrome OS works, but Microsoft seems to be extending this idea to the desktop with apps.
