Windows 8.1 Update 1 could direct us to the classic desktop by default

In recent weeks we have heard various rumors and leaks about the news that Windows 8.1 Update 1 would integrate, and today new information arrives from The Verge and Wzor that indicates that this updatewould have the option to start in the classic desktop enabled by default and not in the Modern UI interface.

The anonymous source --which is related to the company's plans-- has indicated that Update 1 is still under development but that the current version of the update integrates this feature for the reason to improve its usability for users who use keyboard and mouse.

There are many nuances to analyze before such a decision by Microsoft, because we know that many of the users of the previous version of the operating system are upset by the integration of the Modern UI interface, and I think that to please them, Microsoft could make use of this feature. Although, on the other hand, we find people who feel so comfortable in the fresh interface that Windows 8 came to boast, and who, before other things, is growing in number of adoption and application ecosystem .

Although it must also be evaluated that Microsoft probably leaves it up to the manufacturers, or those in charge of installing the operating system, to decide which interface they want to start on by default , so computers that do without a touch screen could always take the classic desktop, and all-touch devices could keep the Modern UI.

We know that Windows 8.1 Update 1 will bring other improvements under its belt, such as the search and shutdown buttons from the start screen or the possibility of pinning applications that run on the taskbar to the taskbar the Modern UI interface, but it won't be until the presentation date, around next March, when we know how many new features will be integrated into the update.

"

And of course, from what we understand, this will barely be a taste of what awaits us with Windows 9 Threshold>be the biggest update of the ecosystem Windows. "
