Microsoft will hold an event to announce the 'next generation of Windows' from 11:00 local time on June 24, 2021.

Microsoft released an image of light shining through a window like the Windows logo, along with a tweet announcing the next Windows announcement event on the 24th. It is pointed out that the 'horizontal frame of the window' is intentionally erased from the light coming in through the window and looks like the number '11'.



In addition to this, overseas media have pointed out that the fact that the start time of the event is '11 o'clock' local time is intentional. The reason is that Microsoft's previous Windows and Surface announcement events started at different times.

Following these, Microsoft released a movie of '11 minutes' that extended the startup sound of Windows by 40 times. Microsoft said, 'For those who are looking forward to the Microsoft event on June 24th and can't relax. We've slowed the startup sound of Windows 95 / XP / 7 by 40 times, so please take your time and immerse yourself in your memories.' It is described in the description column of the movie.

Once again, it was related to the number '11', so foreign media The Verge speculates that 'I think this movie is related to the new startup sound of Windows 11.' In addition, since a number of event announcement contents related to '11' have been released so far, 'We will continue to announce' 11 'until the event date,' wrote The Verge.

'I've never been so excited about the new version of Windows since Windows 95,' said Yusuf Mehdi, a Microsoft executive.



The next Windows is under development under the codename 'Sun Valley', and a major UI renewal is planned.
