Windows 10X

riginally announced for use on dual-screen devices such as the Surface Neo and other potential form factors; 10X features a modified user interface designed around context specific interactions or "postures" on such devices, including a redesigned Start menu with no tiles, and use of container technology to run Win32 software. On May 4, 2020, Microsoft announced that Windows 10X will initially be used on single-screen devices, and that they will "continue to look for the right moment, in conjunction with our OEM partners, to bring dual-screen devices to market". Windows 10X runs on the same NT kernel as desktop versions of Windows and shares the Windows Core OS with Windows 10, but does not use the user-mode architecture as Windows 10 and previous iterations of Windows NT do. As a result, features like Control Panel and legacy File Explorer have been removed in Windows 10X.
