Fall Creators Update has an arrival date and these are some of the improvements it will bring to our teams

Although we are still in summer, the dates do not say otherwise, for many the month of September and the return to routine indicate that autumn has already arrived. It is not so, but in many cases it seems so. The days of sun and sand are over and we begin to prepare for the rest of the year

An era that is coming that also tends to be prolific in news, with launches and news of all kinds. A month or months in which we will see new _hardware_ everywhere but we will also have important updates regarding _software_.That's where iOS 11 and Mac OS High Sierra from Apple are coming. Android 8.0 Oreo if we talk about the green robot and Fall Creators Update if we focus on Microsoft And it is in some of the aspects that will stand out with this arrival that we leave with to stay.

October 17th will be the date on which the official update will begin to be released for all users. Gone will be those who have been testing it through the different Builds that have been released over time and who are now savoring the honey of Redstone 4. Fall Creators Update is now mature and we will see improvements in the form of new features and programs .

Fluent Design

It is the most striking. Fluent Design, the new design language that until now we had known as Project Neon. A new design that we will be able to find with Fall Creators Update and that will give the system a much more up-to-date and friendly look while making it more usable and attractive.

In addition, among the functions that we will see aimed at improving performance, now the Windows 10 task manager will tell us the performance of our graphics card after installing the latest system update.

Enhanced Security

An increasingly important aspect that they do not want to overlook with this update. This highlights the arrival of an improved Windows Defender to which Cloud Intelligence is added, which, thanks to the cloud and thus improves our protection against different threats.

We will see how informs us about the network connections and the active configuration of the Windows Firewall, offering access to links for the solution from problems. It also allows access to parental controls, control of screen time, creation of reports on the online activity of the little ones and the management of controls for the purchase of applications and games.Likewise, unified access to aspects related to the security of the devices of the same family is allowed.

And seeing everything caused by Wanna Cry, it was clear that it was an aspect that they wanted to pamper greatly. In this sense, the file sharing system which Wanna Cry took advantage of to spread itself will be eliminated.

On the other side of the road runs Windows 10 S, a variant of Windows that seeks maximum security with limited use of applications coming only from the Windows Store. A limitation that users must determine if they are willing to put up with.

Windows Inking

Creativity is a big part of the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. We have seen how the Surface Pen continues to be a complement that Redmond gives a lot of importance to.And if we already have a 3D Paint with us that opens up creative possibilities in a notable way, these will be improved with digital ink.

First because it can be used with documents that we can then share with a single _click_ and secondly because of the arrival of Smart Ink, a complement that will help us in the creations that let's do thanks to the use of artificial intelligence. And in case you lose the pencil and in the absence of better solutions, the Windows Find My Pen functionality will arrive with which we can search for the lost pencil.

Cloud Enhancements

OneDrive is enhanced and now users will be able to access OneDrive files on demand. In this way we can access all our files without downloading them and therefore without consuming storage space on our PC.

All files, even those that are online only, can be viewed in the file browser and work like any other file, being also usable by universal applications (UWP). In addition, different icons will be used to indicate if it is already downloaded to the computer.

Photography and video

Apart from a renewed Photos application that now shows the videos of the system, this one has expanded its functions and now it will allow us to create stories in which we make use of videos, photos and 3D editing.

Artificial intelligence will also reach this section and we will be able, for example, to carry out more precise searches than before, since the application will be able to identify and classify our images based on the elements they display.

Games

Game Mode was still very green and with the Fall Creators Update they say it will finally be really useful. And it is that aimed at improving the performance of games on computers with few resources or with just enough to run some titles, the truth is that it did not represent any improvement .

With the new update they promise improvements in the form of a smoother gaming experience since when it runs Windows 10 will stop consuming resources and the system will allocate all available resources to the game we are using

Accessibility with the gaze

Eye Control and Tobii Eye Kit will be another of the novelties that we will see with Fall Creators Update.An improvement focused on facilitating the accessibility of Windows 10 and giving the user the possibility of controlling the system with their eyes. Something that may not seem very useful but can be of great value for people with some type of disabling disease.

There will also be Eye Tracking, a functionality that will allow you to type and use the mouse with the movement of your eyes thanks to accessories such as Tobii Eye Tracker 4C,

Windows Mixed Reality

Last but not least, we will see news regarding augmented reality And on the 17th we can see the first devices for take advantage of Windows Mixed Reality. For this we will need equipment equipped with an eighth generation Intel processor and the appropriate content.

Fall Creators Update: Release Date

Microsoft will make available to all users starting October 17, the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. And we say leaving because it does not mean that we have it that same day. Its deployment will be progressive and it may take a few days to reach all computers.
