Will transform the Metro interface on Windows Blue

Computer shop news: We are somewhat confused about the sales of Win8. Because Microsoft sells a large number of licenses, OEMs are also very supportive; but their sales are still struggling, especially among enthusiasts. The most controversial is the graphical user interface previously called "Metro", now called "Windows 8UI". Unconfirmed rumors say that an upgrade, code-named Windows Blue, will arrive later this year or early next year.

Now, these rumors seem to have been confirmed, and there are signs that Microsoft is adjusting the criticized UI. Maon of Ma-config.com first noticed a job posting. Microsoft is looking for an experienced software engineer. The article reads: "We are looking for an excellent and experienced SDET (software development test engineer). Join the core experience team of Windows Sustained Engineering (WinSE). At the heart of the functional experience is the new Windows UI that will be accessible and visible to most customers, including: splash screens, application lifecycles, windowing and personalization. Windows Blue is committed to building and improving these aspects of the operating system, enhancing ease of use and a complete experience for devices and PCs worldwide. In another notice, the eye-catching Twitter user @h0x0d saw the words ""Windows Phone Blue".

Excel MX optimized for touch is expected to log into the Windows Store just like OneNote MX and Lynx MX. ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley pointed out that Microsoft is trying to bring changes in services and the user interface before this summer. This refresh is expected to promote Microsoft's new round of unified strategy: Windows 8, Windows Phone 8, Windows Server 2012, Hotmail and SkyDrive will usher in a similar makeover. However, Win8 UI critics don't be too happy, because the new user interface estimates won't bring you the "Start" button. The focus of Windows Blue should be on the improvement of APIs, so that the application design on Windows 8 and Windows Phone can be run with a simple modification.
