Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen OC_Formula for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com October 8 news, foreign media Windows Central recently issued an article on the previous "Windows will adopt a subscription system" rumors to further explain. In its view, the change is related to the newly discovered Windows 11 IoT (Internet of things) enterprise subscription version, rather than the next version of the Windows operating system for ordinary users.

Previously on CTOnews.com:

German media deskmodder reported that the latest Windows Canary construction shows that Microsoft is exploring the possibility of "using Windows itself as a subscription service". The latest Windows Canary build has added subscription-related entries to the slmgr.ini file, indicating that Microsoft is expected to bring a subscription-based version of Windows.

Let's go back to this "Windows 11 IoT Enterprise subscription". Just two days ago, Twitter blogger Xeno, who specializes in discovering features in the Windows Canary beta system or Bug, tweeted that the version is a new product of Windows and can be created using UUP Media Creator. From the screenshot he posted, the relevant watermark appeared in the lower right corner of this version of Windows 11. This is a special version of Windows 11, mainly installed in embedded devices to enable the Internet of things or automation.

In addition, Windows Central believes that while "subscription" is unlikely to be available to ordinary consumers, there will still be some new features that require subscriptions in the next version of Windows. Microsoft is currently introducing more Windows 365 support for the next version of Windows, and plans to launch a consumer-oriented Windows 365 in the future.
