4 things we hope to see in Windows 10 Redstone 4

With development of the Fall Creators Update slowly winding down, it's time to look to the future and talk about what we're hoping to see in Microsoft's next version of Windows 10.

Redstone 4 is Microsoft's next major version of Windows 10 after the Fall Creators Update, which will be packing several cut features from the Fall Creators Update, as well as some new ones. Redstone 4 is scheduled for launch sometime in March/April 2018, so there's plenty of time between now and then to get some new features in. Here's what we're hoping Microsoft will focus in with Windows 10 Redstone 4.

Modern File Explorer

One area where I'm hoping Microsoft will focus their efforts with Redstone 4 is the File Explorer. We all know the File Explorer is long overdue a refresh, as its last major update was back in 2012 with Windows 8, where Microsoft introduced the Office Ribbon UI to its header. Since then, only small incremental updates have been made to File Explorer.

File Explorer as is works great, and as the old saying goes, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it," but just because something works doesn't mean it isn't due for an update. A new UI is in order, to say the least, along with several other enhancements that should be there but aren't. Things like a duplicate file option in the context menu, or tabs, for example.
