Microsoft is in the process of modernizing parts of the Windows 10 operating System to improve the icons and other simple elements of the System. Verge News Agency has published a report announcing that a new demo of Windows 10 will be available to a select number of users in the coming days. In this demo, new icons have been designed and used based on the Fluent Design language.

New Windows 10 System Icons

The new icons used by Microsoft appear much simpler and are available in a new font, known as Fluent Icons. It is also said that the Taskbar will be updated with new icons. This latest version of Windows 10 will show all users that with simple and small changes, different parts of Windows can be modernized and beautiful.

In this Update, minor changes have been made to the appearance of Windows 10, which will be available to most users this year. It is also worth noting that the changes to these icons are part of Microsoft’s broader effort to redesign the appearance of Windows 10, which is why they are so important.

Last year, in 2020, many of the Windows 10 icons underwent changes and updates, and changes also occurred in the Windows Start Menu, introducing a new ceramic design.

Microsoft is reportedly planning to extensively visually upgrade Windows 10 through a special Update codenamed the Sun Code.

There are even rumors that Microsoft wants to separate the Start menu window from the Taskbar in the Sun Valley version, effectively splitting the two menus.

Years ago, Microsoft promised to redesign Windows 10 with Fluent Design, and it appears we’re getting closer to this version. This year, we could see the first significant changes to the look of Windows 10.

It appears that various sections, such as the Start menu and File Explorer, as well as the default built-in applications of Windows 10, have undergone significant changes after the release of the Sun version, albeit in appearance. Even simple items, such as options and in-app sliders, are said to be perceived as having small visual changes.

We expect Windows 10 to look much more integrated, as this feature has been retained since the unveiling of Windows 10. We hope that the changes being discussed will result in the removal of several icons. The old-fashioned features are reminiscent of the Windows 95 era.

We’ll have to wait and see what Microsoft plans to release in the coming months and what changes it will make.
