Windows 10 to gain new features via a 'major update' in November

By
Microsoft may have found early success with Windows 10, but it doesn't look like the firm is resting on its laurels where post-launch support is concerned.

According to rumours site WinBeta, the operating system will receive a "major update" in November, ushering in a range of new features.

The revamp will reportedly include extensions for the Edge browser, performance enhancements, and a new universal Messaging app for desktop users.

Edge is expected to gain support for the WebM open source HTML5 standard through the update, as Microsoft has been working on this for a while.

Windows 10 has found its way to 75 million devices since it began its rollout to PCs in late July and now accounts for around 5% of all desktop traffic.

In the works as Threshold 2, the November update has been in the hands of Windows Insiders since mid-August.
