Windows chief Julie Larson-Green announced at the Wired Business Conference on Tuesday that
Microsoft will release a preview of
Windows 8.1 — also known as
Windows Blue — at the end of June,
ZDNet reported. The executive said that the company
will release the preview at its Build developers conference that is scheduled to take place on June 26th in San Francisco. Microsoft previously confirmed that it plans to
release the next version of the Windows operating system by the holiday season. Windows Blue is very likely to incorporate a lot of user feedback from Windows 8, which has proven to be a polarizing operating system that many users have complained lacks the intuitiveness of earlier Windows versions.
