Microsoft announces Windows 365, a new service that streams Windows OS to any computer via browser

Windows 365 will be available to businesses only starting August 2.

Microsoft wants Windows to be available on all computers and to achieve that dream, the software giant has now announced Windows 365, a new service that streams Windows 10 now and Windows 11 later through a web browser. This is what has come to be known as cloud PCs and Microsoft is banking on Windows 365 to make the stay-at-home economy more streamlined for companies. That is because Windows 365 will be available to businesses under different subscriptions, starting August 2. “Windows 365 provides an instant-on boot experience,” said Wangui McKelevy, general manager at Microsoft, in a post. The instant bootup is going to allow office workers to use Windows on any device that supports a browser. Although these cloud versions of Windows 10 or Windows 11 are going to look the best on computers, Microsoft is betting on Windows 365 to reach Macs, iPads, Linux computers, and even Android devices. Windows 365 will be available to use through any modern browser, which obviously includes Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome. Microsoft’s Remote Desktop app will also support Windows 365.
