Post by: javajolt on November 12, 2015, 08:07:36 PM
With the fall update now rolling out to Windows 10 users, Microsoft is on the front foot again.

The first major update for a Windows OS is usually the trigger for many businesses to start upgrading their systems.

Previous Service Packs have been taken as the sign that most of the major issues are fixed. And, with Windows 10 offering a major change over Window 8, most businesses will have been less than hasty.

Even so, the company brags that 12 million companies of various size are already on board in an attempt to stimulate further adoption.

With this first major update to Windows 10, we’re empowering them to do so—with the first platform which spans all device types, enables management of both corporate owned and BYOD, and upgrades existing devices.

Windows 10 is already actively running on more than 110 million devices including 12 million business PCs, and is compatible with the past while embracing our new way of working.

The post on the Windows blog also lists all the new features to help IT pros and administrators install Windows 10 and get users up and running.

There’s special versions of Windows Update for Business to prevent unwanted updates happening, with Windows Store for Business to focus on productivity and the company’s own apps.

There is also the usual focus on security, with Windows 10 Hello helping through authenticated biometric access and other features to keep data and devices safe.
