Playing retro, Microsoft wants to return the Win10 UI interface to the Win7, XP era

For the UI interface of the Windows system, I believe everyone has their own preferences in their hearts, whether it is the original Win 98, 2000, or XP, later Win 7 and now Win 10, each version of the system UI has its own Features.

Today's Win 10 is the operating system with the widest audience, and everyone has different views on its UI, some like and some dislike.

Regarding the issue of modifying the UI interface, in fact, there was news a long time ago that Microsoft would adjust the system UI of Win 10, but until now the interface of Win 10 is still the same.

However, Win Central recently broke the news that Microsoft may make major changes to the Windows 10 UI interface in the 21H2 update in 2021, and the design style will be more unified, using Microsoft's Fluent Design design language for more system applications.

recently broke the news that Microsoft is about to change the UI design style of Win 10, and is planning to make the system adopt rounded corner design, returning to the appearance of Windows 7, Vista and XP.

Before Windows 8 introduced Metro UI, Microsoft had been using Aero effects and rounded corner effects on all application windows. However, in the Windows 8 era, Windows U was changed to a sharp corner style and tile format, and significant changes have taken place. Even a considerable part of users choose to install Windows 7 for new machines because they cannot accept the Windows 8 UI.

As Microsoft itself stated in its GitHub project, this redesigned UI is part of the transformation of Fluent Design. Z1z

revealed that the new rounded corner design has become a part of Windows 10 key applications. In fact, the new rounded corner design has been used in the new Chromium-based Edge browser, and has been foreseen in calculators, alarm clocks, calendars, and even Windows Terminal.

Earlier this year, Microsoft introduced a new standard icon shape with rich colors and more curved curves. The design language is still Fluent Design, but it is constantly evolving, and now it is emphasizing shadows and rounded edges.

But this usually happens when major changes are released-Microsoft will first let testers of the Windows Insider project try out the new UI before others.

As for the launch time of the new UI, the source said that if Microsoft does not bounce the ticket, then we may see the new system UI in the preview version from March to May next year.
