Changes with Windows 10?

Well, they are not calling it "Windows 11" but... in November, Microsoft sent out an "update" (free) to Windows 10. I suspect you got it by now... unless you're still one of millions who are sticking with Windows 7 in spite of that VERY annoying pop-up telling you that "millions have changed to Win 10".

Anyway, apparently, this is how they'll do things now... making modifications and pushing them out as updates.

There are several additional features in this update. Here's more on those:
