    Microsoft’s PC Manager app allows users to manage storage, control which apps run at startup, and optimize systems in other ways.

    https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook

    One of the few features I missed from macOS is Quick Look. It allows users to peek into a file content in lightning speed by just pressing the Space key. Windows, on the other hand, does not have this handy feature … until now!

    I am aware that several alternatives are already available on the Internet (e.g. WinQuickLook and Seer).

    Porkkana ei toiminut, joten seuraavaksi Windows-käyttäjät saavat maistaa keppiä
    Windows 10:n tukiaika tulee päätökseen 25. lokakuuta 2025, ja Microsoftilla on paljon pohdittavaa.
    https://www.iltalehti.fi/digiuutiset/a/5a800417-4050-4f4e-9b1e-ce7bc4fe0bae

    Microsoft haluaa käyttäjien siirtyvän Windows 11:n pariin, mutta monilta se ei onnistu. Windows 11:n laitevaatimukset ovat kovat, eivätkä niitä täytä edes kaikki uudemmat laitteet.

    Asiaa ei helpota myöskään Windows 10:n jättiläismäinen käyttöosuus, joka huitelee lähes 70 prosentissa. Windows 11:n vastaava osuus on noin 27 prosenttia, IT Pro -sivusto kirjoittaa.

    Microsoft on luvannut, että myös tavalliset kuluttaja-asiakkaat saavat jatkotukea Windows 10:lle. Tavalliselle kuluttajille jatkettu tukiaika tulee mitä todennäköisimmin olemaan maksullista, mutta hinnat saattavat olla hieman edullisempia.

    Yrityksiltä yhtiö aikoo kuitenkin lypsää rahaa melkoisesti, sillä Microsoftin julkaisemien hintojen mukaan jatkettu tuki kustantaa 61 dollaria eli noin 57 euroa per tietokone per vuosi. Kustannuksia lisää reilusti se, että myöhemmin kelkkaan mukaan hyppäävät joutuvat maksamaan myös aiemmat päivitykset.

    Microsoft on toistaiseksi pyrkinyt ohjaamaan Windows 10 -käyttäjiä Windows 11:n pariin lisäämällä käyttöjärjestelmään monia kiinnostavia ominaisuuksia, kuten Copilot-tekoälyn.

    New Windows 10 prices show Microsoft is getting desperate in pushing users to the latest operating system
    https://www.itpro.com/software/windows/new-windows-10-prices-show-microsoft-is-getting-desperate-in-pushing-users-to-the-latest-operating-system

    The firm has extended support for the operating system, but the hefty price tags show it’s keen to push users to Windows 11

    Microsoft will be doubling the price of its Extended Security Updates (ESU) every year after Windows 10 reaches end-of-support in 2025, signaling a desperate push to prompt upgrades to Windows 11.

    Once support runs out on 14 October 2025, organizations will have to pay $61 for the first year of updates, followed by an increase to $122 for the second year and $244 in the third year.

    This yearly price doubling will run for a maximum of up to three years, Microsoft confirmed, though users who enter the program after 2025 will have to pay for any years’ pricing they missed.

    Consumers won’t be offered all three years of extended Windows 10 security updates
    Home users can opt in for a single year of updates at $30 per PC—not 3 years.
