    "Windows 9" is actually being called Windows 10!

    It's going to mark the last full client release of Microsoft Windows. That's why they chose "ten". It will be incrementally updated like Google Chrome Browser is. Windows Update is being drastically re-engineered and will perhaps be the "key" architectural feature of Windows 10.

    yeah that took some working out, I was confused as it still says windows 9 for me.

    if you are in the dark wide view it still looks the same and only comes as windows 10 forums in the standard mode.

    Don't forget to rename entire subforum too!

    https://www.tenforums.com/windows-9-forums/

    **EDIT**

    As well as descriptions for other subforums, such as Tutorials and those below for Customization etc.

    You're probably not following the unveiling event in San Francisco. The name Windows 10 just came out at 1pm EST. The forum needs to change name because of that. Everything happened so fast today.
