Windows 11X

Windows 11X (codenamed Light) is the first released operating system from the Windows Core OS family. It is the fourth project to create an operating system for tablets (previously there were: Windows Polaris, Windows Core OS, Windows 10X, and Windows RT 8/8.1).
Windows 11X also became popular in 2023, thanks to its optimization, performance and installation even on very old computers.
== New features and changes ==
* The interface has been significantly improved, it has become very similar to Windows 11.
* Some applications have had their interface updated to resemble Windows 11.
* Updated sounds.
== History and Development ==
The development of Windows 11X began in 2022, then this project was codenamed Light and was developed as a lightweight version of Windows 11 with new universal features for both PCs and laptops, and tablets.
Strangely, the system has features for laptops and computers, but Microsoft seems to have forgotten to mention this. Full support for PCs and laptops appeared only in the latest update for this version - 25H2 (For PCs).
=== Build 22684.1 (Dev) ===
The first build of the system under the number 22684.1 (Developer Preview) was leaked to the Internet on November 22, 2022. In this build, it was seen that unlike Windows 11, in Windows 11X there is no way to move the Start button to the center, it is always on the left. And the search button, multitasking, etc. are in the center, and this cannot be changed either. On the right side of the taskbar, the battery and Wi-Fi icons were redrawn, and a new button was added - notification settings (In this version, nothing happens when you click on this button). Also, as you can see in the screenshot, the Windows logo has been changed. Its corners are rounded more strongly and the logo has a purple-blue gradient.
=== Build 22684.10 (Dev-2) ===
The version was released on November 26, 2022 and is the second build of Windows 11X. This build significantly affected the performance of the system.
* Compared to Windows 10X, the system started working 30-45% faster.
* Added a function in the settings, with which you can move the Start button to the center.
** Using the same function, you can move the search and multitasking buttons to the left or right.
*** By default, start is in the center, and three buttons (search, multitasking, etc.) are on the left.
* The default desktop wallpaper has changed.
* The design of the Start menu has become the same again (as on Windows 10X) due to a hurry making it.
=== Build 22727.0 (Insider Preview) ===
The Insider Preview was released on January 7, 2023 and is considered the third build. Build 22727.0 made Windows 11X as we know it on release.
* In this version, new wallpapers have been added, similar to the wallpaper from Windows 11. Also, the system logo has changed on the taskbar and bootscreen, it has become a solid blue color.
* The notification menu has been completely redesigned into the "Do not disturb" menu: the icon has been redrawn, and when you press the button, you can choose one of the modes in the menu: Vibration, No sound and Do Not disturb. These modes can be combined: you can turn on Without sound and Not disturb at the same time.
* The search, multitasking, etc. buttons have been removed from the taskbar, and the developers plan to move these options inside the Start menu. As for the Start menu, it is still not updated, but in future Insider Previews, the developers plan to finish it.
* A dark theme has been added. It can also be automatically turned on and off at a certain time if you enable this option in the settings.
** When you turn on the dark theme, the Windows logo on the taskbar is repainted white.
* The Settings interface has been completely changed so that it looks like the interface of this application from Windows 11. But, there are still some parameters missing in the Settings, but they will be added over time.
* A "Windows Whiteboard" button has been added to the right side of the taskbar. When you click on it, you can take a screenshot, draw on the screen or in Paint.
* The Paint interface has been updated: the buttons have become round, more brushes and a function for smoothing brush strokes have been added.
