Quote:Microsoft has officially confirmed that it has paused the development of Windows 10X, its Chrome OS competitor for single-screen and dual-screen devices. 
 
Earlier this week, Microsoft indirectly confirmed that it had canceled its new operating system, "Windows 10X", which was scheduled to launch later this year on a new range of 2-in-1s/notebooks from Microsoft partners. 

Windows 10X was announced in 2019 for dual-screen PCs, and Microsoft had promised that this new lightweight operating system would be simple, sleek, and faster than the current generation of Windows. [...]

Quote:In a blog post, Microsoft explained that the technology developed for Windows 10X could be helpful for more users, and it doesn't make sense to limit its innovations to select customers.
 
"We concluded that the 10X technology shouldn’t just be confined to a subset of customers," the company.
 
"Instead of bringing a product called Windows 10X to market in 2021 like we originally intended, we are leveraging learnings from our journey thus far and accelerating the integration of key foundational 10X technology into other parts of Windows and products at the company," Microsoft noted in a blog post.
