Windows 10 is a good choice for you and whether your computer has the right requirements to run it well.

When Windows 10 came out July 29, 2015, many were cautious to sing its praises, but over time, the improvements to security, its enhanced personalization features, and the attention to gaming won over many critics. All in all, Windows 10 is a very stable, secure, and feature-packed operating system (OS). Most people will benefit from using Windows 10, and in this article we will cover whether or not it is the best choice.

The top three reasons you should upgrade to Windows:

  • Improved interface (Start menu) and personalization

  • Enhanced security features

  • Great gaming additions

Improved Interface and Personalization

Improving the way we interact with our PC is one of the key advancements in Windows 10. By bringing back the Start menu, and introducing Cortana* (a personal assistant) Microsoft is improving the user interface (UI) and scoring points with users who prefer simplicity.

  • Change its size by dragging the borders or corners of the Start menu

  • Arrange, add, or delete any of the tiles, programs, or apps that appear on the Start menu

  • Fully personalize it by changing color scheme and other settings

New features allow you to:

  • Preview multiple pages by hovering over open tabs

  • Pin tabs to the browser bar for one-click access to commonly-visited sites

  • Interact with Cortana while you browse to receive deals, coupons, and notifications

Cortana

Cortana is a personal digital assistant built into the Windows 10 OS. Much more than just a search engine, Cortana* can answer questions, search your entire PC for files or documents, provide reminders, track flights, or even tell you a joke. Cortana* is also available on Android devices and Xbox One consoles.

Edge Browser

Microsoft bid farewell to Internet Explorer with Windows* 10 and introduced its new browser—Edge*. According to Microsoft, the browser was built from the ground up to provide a clean, modern, easy way to surf the Web and take advantage of future advancements.

Virtual Desktops

As Mac and Linux users already know, virtual desktops are great for those of us who open a lot of programs at once but want to keep things organized. Microsoft’s goal in creating virtual desktops was to:

  • Give users more desktop space to group related windows

  • Help users quickly locate and switch to any window or group of windows

  • Allows users to re-organize groups and move windows as tasks evolve

Windows Ink

Windows Ink is a compelling feature that was introduced with the Windows 10 Anniversary edition. The Windows Ink Workspace provides a digital pen to make notes, edits, or even to create a sticky note. Windows Ink also includes a sketchpad, screen sketch capabilities, as well as your favorite digital pen apps.

Security Improvements

Some have said that Windows* 10 is the most stable and secure OS from Microsoft to date. Security is a huge concern in today’s digital world, and Windows* 10 was built with security in mind. These security enhancements include:

Windows Hello

Use Windows Hello to log into your PC faster and more securely than before. Using the camera on your PC, Windows Hello will recognize your face instantly and securely log you in. Or, you can use the fingerprint reader, which works the same way. Once you’ve enabled Windows Hello, you can also use it with compatible apps, like Dropbox, so you can skip entering your password manually. Signing in is simply faster and safer.

Great Gaming

You could make a case that Windows 10 was designed with gamers in mind. From support to DirectX 12 to providing new ways to game across devices, Windows 10 provides great features and benefits for gamers of any skill level.

DirectX 12

Using Windows* 10, games take advantage of the graphic fidelity of DirectX 12. DirectX 12 games use the full capabilities of your PC’s video hardware to deliver sharper visuals and improved performance.
