Microsoft wants to modernize existing parts of the Windows 10 user experience

Microsoft is finalizing Windows Sun Valley, the so-called next generation of Windows before the announcement on June 24. As part of this, there are some design adjustments in the preview, such as rounded corner windows and dialog boxes, but it seems that the company’s mission is to “modern the existing part of the Windows user experience.

It has been 6 years since Windows 10 was released. In the past few years, it has obviously become better, but most of the interface has not changed in the 2015 transformation. In fact, Windows 10 still uses many UI features/elements from Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows XP, and even Windows 95.

According to the recruitment information found last month, the redesigned Windows interface will be launched later this year. The project is internally code-named Sun Valley and it will be revolutionary. According to another job posting, we found today, Microsoft now hopes to build a new experience that will involve the modernization of the existing user interface.

A job posting published as early as April stated that Microsoft is building “a new part of the Windows user experience and modernizing the existing part.” In order to improve the experience, the company is conducting internal user research to understand user needs and testing various solutions before finalizing the final appearance.

Microsoft is hiring a senior project manager to define, improve and provide a world-class experience. The job posting required the project manager to “work and establish partnerships with the entire Microsoft team to build support for the proposed solution.”

The job advertisement was released by the team responsible for “building the future of human-computer interaction in Windows”, and no new applications are currently accepted. The team is also responsible for improving the interactive experience in Windows, such as start and taskbar, touch, UI functions such as voice, snapshot and windowing.

But the question is, is Microsoft really modernizing Windows 10? On the surface, Windows 11 or Sun Valley update will look modern, it will be “pleasant and iconic”, as part of the transformation, Microsoft will update most of the icons, attribute tags, context menus and other important features to give it a more modern appearance, such as dark mode.

For example, File Explorer will get rounded corners, new icons, and an appropriate dark mode to match the design of other Windows applications. However, according to the latest understanding of Windows, the Sun Valley update will include a refresh of some old features. If you dig deeper, you may also encounter some of these legacy components, such as changes in icons or pop-up windows.
