Microsoft released classic Windows applications such as Win10 version of WordPad, character maps, etc.

  

Microsoft is providing developers with a bridge to make applications they develop available to the Windows 10 store, and now Microsoft is becoming a pioneer in this area. The company is using Project Centennial, a tool that allows Win32 software to be ported to Windows 10, bringing traditional Windows applications to the Windows Store, and the first to be published yesterday was the WordPad, Microsoft Character Map, Fax and Scan, as well as the XPS viewer.

The Windows 10 versions of these famous Win32 software are already available in the Windows Store, but they are only available for Windows 10 Preview. In other words, Microsoft is still testing the software, and the best way to do this is to get them into the Windows 10 store for Windows beta users to test.

If everything goes as planned, all of these applications should be available to all users during the Windows 10 Anniversary update next month, but users must first upgrade to the Windows 10 Anniversary Update. So, if you are still stuck in 1511 or the original 10240 version of Windows 10, you will not be able to install and execute these applications. In addition, it should be noted that at present, these softwares are not universal applications, so they cannot be installed on mobile phones. Microsoft currently provides Office Office Suite for Windows 10 mobile users, so whether WordPad can be used in Windows 10 Installation and execution on the phone becomes less important.
