The
world's largest software company had earlier said Windows 10
would be released this "summer".
Touch-friendly Windows 10, which features the return of the
Start menu and will run across PCs, tablets and smartphones, is
Microsoft's latest attempt to win over mobile users and features
a new browser called 'Edge'.
It will be offered as a free upgrade to users of Windows 7 and
8.1, a strategy announced in January, designed to capture as
many users as possible.
Microsoft also said new PCs and tablets running Windows 10 will
go on sale July 29, while Windows 10 for other devices such as
smartphones would be available later this year.
