David Weston, Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President for Enterprise and OS Security, discussed the future of Windows and the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the enterprise and security landscape as we approach 2030. He highlighted that AI technologies like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT are transforming work by reducing monotonous tasks, allowing employees to focus on creative responsibilities. Weston predicted that in five years, AI agents could perform roles traditionally held by security experts, participating in meetings and managing tasks similarly to humans. He referred to these AI agents as “net amplifiers” that enhance human capabilities. Weston speculated that future versions of Windows will change how we interact with technology, moving away from traditional input methods to more conversational interfaces. He noted that current voice command systems, such as Microsoft Copilot, have limitations that need to be addressed with increased cloud computing power, which he believes will be facilitated by quantum computing. He mentioned that quantum computing will dramatically change the security landscape, prompting the introduction of post-quantum encryption. While details about Windows 12 are limited, AI integration is expected to be a significant feature, potentially making voice a key input method for multitasking.

Android was acquired by Google in 2005, marking a significant turning point for the platform. It evolved from an open-source operating system that encouraged diverse hardware options to a dominant mobile OS, adapting to consumer demands for larger screens and advanced features. Between 2018 and 2020, manufacturers began adopting edge-to-edge displays, leading to innovations like the "notch" and "punch-hole" designs. From 2021 onward, foldable phones emerged, with devices like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip redefining the smartphone form factor. Google introduced optimizations for large screens and improved multitasking capabilities to accommodate these changes.

In the latest Android Canary release, users can experience a new 90/10 split-screen ratio, allowing a primary application to occupy 90% of the screen while a secondary app takes up 10%. This feature complements the existing 70/30 split-screen configuration. Users can easily swap the two applications with a tap. The 90:10 split-screen option was officially launched in July's Android Canary release and has been part of Android 16's source code. It is being implemented in various Android 16-based operating systems, including Samsung's One UI 8. The feature was inspired by OPPO’s Boundless View multitasking system, although OPPO did not directly contribute to it.

Windows has been the most widely used operating system globally since its launch in 1985, currently powering over a billion active devices each month. Support for Windows 10 will end on October 14, 2025, meaning Microsoft will stop providing security and feature updates, as well as technical support for Windows 10 PCs. Users can check their eligibility for upgrading to Windows 11 through the Settings menu or the PC Health Check app. Windows 11 features enhanced security, improved performance, and a modern user interface, with built-in accessibility tools and AI capabilities. The Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) program will provide critical security updates for personal devices from October 15, 2025, to October 13, 2026. Organizations can subscribe to ESU for continued security updates for a year, with the option to renew annually. Windows 365 offers a cloud-based solution for transitioning to Windows 11 without needing to replace all devices immediately. Various Windows 11 and Copilot+ PCs are available from partners like Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, and Surface.

Microsoft's Windows operating system has evolved significantly, with Windows 11 featuring enhanced multitasking and modern functionalities. However, nostalgic elements from older versions, particularly Windows XP, are missed. 1. The Disk Defragmenter in Windows XP had a visually appealing interface that represented data on the disk, which has been replaced by a text-based interface in later versions. 2. Built-in games like Solitaire, Hearts, and 3D Pinball in Windows XP provided straightforward enjoyment, while their modern counterparts have become cluttered and commercialized. 3. Windows Media Player in XP allowed users to customize with quirky skins, which added personality, a feature that is lacking in today's streamlined media players. 4. Windows Movie Maker was a user-friendly video editing tool that has been replaced by Clipchamp, which many find less intuitive and more patronizing. 5. Windows Messenger and Windows Live Messenger offered a personalized messaging experience with group organization and unique emoticons, which is not matched by current platforms like Skype and Microsoft Teams.
