Windows 10 Pro is the major refresh of the OS, and it's the first semi-annual update. This new update delivers a new set of features and enhancements to improve performance, security, and it helps users be more productive. Windows 10 is adding an acrylic effect, part of Fluent Design, to the sign-in background. The translucent texture helps you focus on the login task by moving the actionable controls up in the visual hierarchy while maintaining their accessibility.
Windows can now determine your active hours automatically so that backups are performed while you're not using the PC. You can also pause updates and delay feature updates for up to a year and quality updates for a month. While Windows 10's dark mode isn't always consistent throughout the operating system, the white theme is fairly well-executed across the operating system, thanks to a lot of apps and areas using white backgrounds as standard.
