Windows 10 October 2018 Update Announced By Microsoft

The next major update for the Windows 10 operating system has been announced by Microsoft today. Dubbed the Windows 10 October 2018 Update and announced via a blog post connected to Microsoft’s presence at IFA in Berlin, it will bring among other features the following to the table:

  • A dark theme for File Explorer. Because dark modes are now a thing seeing as macOS Mojave has a dark mode.
  • A new snipping experience
  • A cloud-powered clipboard
  • Support for extended line endings in Notepad
  • integration with the Your Phone app
  • New web sign-in and fast sign-in features
  • A mixed reality flashlight feature
  • SwiftKey in the touch keyboard

It should be out by the end of October if the stars align and be punted out to the 700 million devices that Microsoft claims are running Windows 10. Hopefully it will better than the April 2018 update which was plagued with problems when that shipped.
