The brilliant Windows 12 is everything Windows 11 isn’t – and the Microsoft OS we deserve

As Windows 10 approaches its end of life, Microsoft is keen to encourage users to transition to Windows 11. However, many users, particularly those with older hardware, are hesitant. Concerns about compatibility and performance issues have led to a notable decline in Windows 11’s market share.

While Microsoft has not yet unveiled its successor to Windows 11, the creative community has taken the initiative to envision what the next iteration of the operating system might entail. One such visionary is designer Abdi (AR 4789), who has previously reimagined various versions of Windows, including Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows 10, along with concepts like Windows 12 Mobile and Windows 12 Lite.

The Brilliant Windows 12

Abdi’s latest concept, dubbed the Brilliant Windows 12, presents a fresh perspective on the future of Microsoft’s operating systems. Rather than starting with the installation process, Abdi dives directly into innovative features such as:

  • Collectzone: A feature that allows users to group files into collections for easier access.
  • Files Panel: A dedicated area for recent and favorite files, enhancing user navigation.
  • Unified Control Panel and Settings: A long-overdue integration that simplifies user experience.
  • Interactive Quick Settings: A more dynamic approach to accessing essential settings.
  • Enhanced Notifications: Improved alerts that keep users informed without overwhelming them.
  • AI-Integrated Search: A smarter search function that leverages artificial intelligence for better results.
  • Desktop Widgets: Customizable widgets that provide real-time information at a glance.

Abdi’s vision for Windows 12 is not just about aesthetics; it aims to enhance functionality and user engagement. For those intrigued by this concept, a video showcasing Abdi’s ideas is available for viewing. It invites users to reflect on whether they prefer this new vision over Windows 11 and what features they would like to see in Microsoft’s forthcoming operating system.
