hey guys this is Tom we're on with the verge and we're getting a quick look here at Windows 10 like the most recent build that Marshalls gonna throw out in a couple of weeks and so obviously we saw the Start menu back in September and there's a few additions and changes here and we've got like a expand Start menu mode which will literally bring it sort of fullscreen and you pop that back and kind of helpful on a device has got mouse and keyboard and again you've got all the normal controls you get in Windows apps fullscreen we'll go to that sort of size what you'd expect and what makes us really doing here he's trying to pull in this sort of form factor so a tune one like a surface pro free and trying to make it a little bit a little bit less jarring when it's full screen and the sort of the problems that were associated for in as a tracer so you got like a new full-screen mode that will take you back to Sochi what the app would look like in Windows 8 and he'd get back to their evil so you've also got a new Settings panel here which essentially replaces the charms menu now you get your notifications quick access to easy settings down here so turning off the rotation law etc and you can also enable continuum here which is essentially a new mode that will basically change the apps into full screen app so you can take away the keyboard and use this as as a tablet everything goes full screen including like the traditional police the traditional desktop apps and everything is really you know just what you'd expect with with the touch mode and then you can quickly switch back to the sort of shall we say desktop mode I guess where you can easily resize windows and then back to a keyboard and mouse so the kind of interesting thing about this continuum sort touch mode is you've got new ways to interact with app so you can put you can basically tile switch between apps here you can drag and snap getting new apps from the toss which again pull down any key off apps very similar to Windows 8 but just feels a little bit more polished so we're bring in ma on that folder - you still have that kind of view and you can resize the windows just as you would in Windows 8 so they're not really getting rid of all this stuff they're just making it a little bit easier to use and some of them new additions in this build we've got the Cortana search down the bottom here so you can literally type in the weather and you will see launched the application also much done a lot of work on the desktop icons here which have traditionally been kind of really weird mixing that Windows 8 you can see just in the basic File Explorer here they've upgraded a lot of the icons you can see that even in the sort of folder icons and various places and again like the UI on the taskbar has been tweaked here from C got the purple theming here and we saw in some of the demos on stage it was a transparency of course does that mean that doesn't seem to be here just yet that's obviously a work in progress and there's clearly some some some flux going on with the UI that we're gonna gonna see some some interesting changes I think a lot more modern changes on the desktop there so yeah I mean this is essentially the the latest version of Windows 10 and running on a two-in-one tablet which is pretty much the most interesting way you're gonna see Windows 10 on these sort devices
