Program for Windows 10 has a new feature, which is still their weakness. Thus we already know why it is still a form of multitasking, we will disappear from the Xbox One.
Some time ago I informed you about the removal of Windows 10 Creators Update mode of multitasking to the Xbox One, or rather, with the ability to display two apps on the screen of the TV. Microsoft explained that this is because in order to have the ability to enter “the best things”.
it is Assumed that excessive release of resources for games and compressing them available to the operating system and applications calling the decision, but, fortunately, I was wrong. Pin apps to the console disappeared, that could be a new feature for the entire platform Universal Windows Platform for all devices and accompanying API for applications. The function is obvious, but where developers and users is not enough to this day.
we are Talking about compact to overlay, that is, mode, picture-in-picture.
Compact overlay microsoftowa name to something very simple, like a PiP mode. It seems to me that everyone understands what it is, but just in case I’ll explain. We are talking about the possibility of sending via open application in the background the image is small, a certain zone on the screen niezasłanialnego in other applications.
Translating from nerdowego the human: we can watch TV shows despite the fact that we are working on at the moment, in the other, for our convenience, zmaksymalizowanej application. The first new mode will be supportive of the apps, Live TV and Skype. The mechanism is also used built-in services in OS such as Cortana, Achievements (Xbox) and Beam.
On PCs and phones with a large display is, without a doubt, a great news because this mode of operation was available until now only for Win32 applications. On Xboksie however, They this is particularly important given that the recent disabling snap apps to the edge of the screen.

But this is not the end. Universal games and smart device locking
the Latest test build of Windows 10 Creators Update, after which there will appear no new features (and the collections they will serve only to capture mistakes so will), introduces another small but interesting piece of news and one announcement of something, with which, most likely, the company is building for the premiere of the updates.
This little novelty is a dynamic device lock. On request, our Windows 10 can automatically lock the access to our computer and require reauthentication of the user for 30 seconds after you lose the connection to connected via Bluetooth. That is, for example, as we will come with the phone out of the room, home, office, and so on.
in turn, this announcement is even greater convergence of games on the Xbox and games for Windows in the Windows Store. Currently, they are “universal” only from the point of view of the user who pays immediately and can play anywhere. However, Xbox still has its version games, and PC your. Microsoft wants to introduce a support BELT games on the Xbox One and the Store is already under szykowany, but most of all, the article this is only to update Redstone 3, announced at the end of the year.
