Microsoft Jordan has officially announced the arrival of Windows 10 in the Kingdom at an event hosted at Four Seasons Hotel Amman.

Available through free download and installed on new devices, Windows 10 presents a number of original features, beginning with Windows Hello, which allows users to log in securely using fingerprint or facial recognition and to be greeted with a smile, a statement said.

Microsoft Edge, Windows’ new browser, allows people to quickly browse, read, mark up and share the Web, while Cortana, the personal digital assistant, makes it easy to quickly find the right information at the right time.

While exploring innovative new ground, Windows 10 also manages to remain familiar. With the return and enhancement of the Start menu, users can quickly reach their most frequently used apps, PC settings and customized Live Tiles.

Windows 10 also comes with a number of exceptional built-in apps, including Photos; Maps; Microsoft’s new music app, Groove; and Movies & TV. In addition, the New Windows Store provides for a more streamlined download process, allowing users to find and install the apps they need with efficiency. The most secure version of Windows ever built, always-enabled updates and enhanced security features help to keep users protected against viruses, malware, and phishing attacks.

“Running in 192 countries and on almost 200 million devices worldwide, Windows 10 has gained an incredible amount of momentum across the globe. This event provided us in Jordan with an excellent opportunity to ride this wave, spreading knowledge on what sets Windows 10 apart and encouraging its adoption locally,” said Microsoft Jordan country manager Hussein Malhas.

“Windows 10 provides the perfect companion for the Lumia 950 and 950 XL, which were designed specifically to offer maximum mobility, productivity and flexibility. When combined with the groundbreaking Continuum, we have created a system that seamlessly allows our users to achieve more, improving and simplifying their lives by providing them with the customizable tools they need to thrive,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
