Since 1985 to date, the brand has released more than 15 versions of Windows, such as XP, 98, and 2000, and each of these has its own logo. The latest is Windows 11, and it is one of the simplest brand icons ever seen. The concept behind the Windows logo initially started as a flag but eventually became more defined. There\u2019s a story behind every brand\u2019s logo, and even windows have its own history.

The most recent iteration of this structure consists of nothing more than four squares. The latest Windows logo is that of Windows 11. It is still the same four-square geometric shape, but it\u2019s no longer italicized and it\u2019s blue in color.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-windows-logo-history\"><span id=\"windows-logo-history\">Windows Logo History<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Since the launch of the first windows in 1985, there has been a transition, or rather a modification that has brought advancement to technology.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-1-microsoft-windows-1-0-2-0-1985-2001\"><span id=\"1-microsoft-windows-1-0-2-0-1985-2001\">#1.

Even though Windows 98 was released twice, the first was in 1998, while the second was in 1999. However, Windows 99 was an improvement over Windows 98, or rather what they prefer to call a correction to the errors in Windows 98.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-9-in-the-year-2000-microsoft-released-windows-2000-1999-2010\"><span id=\"9-in-the-year-2000-microsoft-released-windows-2000-1999-2010\">#9.

This is more than the flag-like colorful image we do see. Now, there is still a flag, but it has five windows instead of three; four are blue and white (including the front window where the flag flies) and the fifth is orange and red. Well, the windows continue to decrease anyway and we aren\u2019t surprised the logo is following suit.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-10-windows-me2000-2006\"><span id=\"10-windows-me2000-2006\">#10.

The window ME logo retains the flag-like windows but streamlines them down to just three colors and shapes, instead of five. The colors are orange for the back, blue for the middle, and green for the front. As always, the new logo has the official Microsoft flag and you\u2019ll see this in the green color. Also, the \u201cME\u201d which is short for Millenium Edition is scripted beside it. The windows themselves have several complaints and so it was one of the Operating systems that weren\u2019t out for long.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-11-windows-xp-2001-2014\"><span id=\"11-windows-xp-2001-2014\">#11.

Windows 7 has more advanced features. The new features include the revamped taskbar, Windows Snap, HomeGroup, and libraries for documents, audio, videos, and so on. Anyway, our focus is on the logo, not the word itself.

Windows 8 logo first appeared in the February 2012 release of the Windows 8 Consumer Preview. This logo, designed by Pentagram, is notable for its replacement of the flag design used since 2001 with a basic, left-tilted window.

Like most correctional operating systems, 8.1 is the same as Windows 8. However, it went through a little adjustment. The Windows 8.1 logo has a thinner typeface, but it was rarely seen because Microsoft never formally adopted it for use in either advertising (where the standard Windows logo was used) or the operating system (where Windows 8\u2019s logo was used).<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-16-windows-10-2015-present\"><span id=\"16-windows-10-2015-present\">#16.

I think Bill Gates decided 8.1 took the place of 9. Well, while everyone expected Windows 9, Microsoft released Windows 10, contrary to everyone\u2019s expectations. It also differs from that of 8.1.\u00a0 The Windows 10 logo now has a dark blue color, and the wording in the wordmark is no longer bold. Besides this, the Windows 10 logo is beautiful as it depicts all shades of professionalism.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-17-windows-11-2021\"><span id=\"17-windows-11-2021\">#17.

The Windows 10 logo is a mashup of the Windows 95 logo from the mid-1990s, the Microsoft Store logo from 2009, and the Microsoft logo from 2012. After what seemed like forever, the Microsoft team finally decided to make its Windows logo something that embraces its past success. If you ask me, it\u2019s a good start. This brings us to a question: Will they change the logo with the release of the next window? I do not know. But if we were to judge by history, they probably will. However, they didn\u2019t release Windows 9, so, it is somewhat safe to say they are unpredictable.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"windows-logo-xp\">Windows Logo XP<\/h2>\n<p>The Windows XP logo is a logogram of four different colored squares, each symbolizing a window and the word XP written in the bottom-right corner.

While the project was still in its infancy, Microsoft hired Frog Design to \u201ccreate essential aspects of the UI\u201d throughout the Windows XP development process, of course, a new logo has to be part of it.<\/p>\n<p>Windows XP was the first consumer edition of Windows based on NT, Windows XP debuted on October 25, 2001, and brought a fresh new look to the desktop and the majority of the system with the Luna theme and a number of other enhancements. As one of the most widely used Windows releases, it held the record for the longest period of support. It was also the final release to support Microsoft\u2019s DOS operating system.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-window-xp-logo-infancy-stage\"><span id=\"window-xp-logo-infancy-stage\">Window XP Logo: Infancy Stage<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Frog Design submitted 50 different logo concepts eventually, only 3 were chosen.

This time, it has a more modern look and feels. The \u201cplastic\u201d vibe of Windows XP\u2019s user interface was carried over to the Windows logo by eliminating the black borders and squares that used to flow behind it. The font was set in Franklin Gothic Medium.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft\u2019s emblem quickly became a prime showcase for the visual improvements introduced in Windows updates. For Windows XP, Microsoft gave the Windows logo a new 3D design with a gradient, making the \u201cflag\u201d appear more solid.<\/p>\n<p>However, there\u2019s really nothing historical about the Windows XP logo.

However, you can only achieve that when you follow their process. The first step is actually to ensure you meet the system requirements. If your computer doesn\u2019t have these specs, you probably won\u2019t be able to upgrade to Windows 11, and you should probably look into getting a new one. To verify the following, check with your\u00a0 PC\u2019s Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or simply use the PC Health Check app in Windows 10 to see if your PC is compatible. In order to upgrade, your device must be running Windows 10 from at least 2004.

Sure, that\u2019s true. You can replicate that with Windows screenshotting. Windows screenshotting is simply all about shooting a video or taking pictures with your PC or laptop. If you need to take a screenshot of something on your computer, you can do so in a number of ways in both Windows 10 and Windows 11.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve put together all the best ways to take a screenshot in Windows, whether you want to save the whole screen or just a part of it.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-1-alt-print-screen\"><span id=\"1-alt-print-screen\">#1. Alt + Print Screen<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>First, in our list of Windows screenshotting guides, we are using the Alt + Print screen. You can do this with Windows 10 or 11. If you intend to do this with Windows 10, you\u2019ll need to copy and paste it into another program to save it. However, Windows 11 users do not have to. All they have to do is simply go ahead with their screenshotting on their computer, and it will copy it and save it to the Screenshots folder at the same time.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-2-print-screen-button\"><span id=\"2-print-screen-button\">#2. Print Screen Button<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another great way of screenshotting is simply by pressing the Print Scrn button on your PC or laptop. You will find this key at the top right corner of the keyboard. When you click this button, an image of the screen is copied to the clipboard. This feature allows users to copy anything on the screen and then paste it into a program like Microsoft Paint or Microsoft Word, where they may make any necessary edits. All sorts of options to improve the quality of the screenshot can be found in these programs.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-3-using-scribe-tool\"><span id=\"3-using-scribe-tool\">#3. Using Scribe Tool<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Anyone can also use the Scribe tool for Windows screenshotting. Scribe facilitates the capture of screenshots for the purpose of creating guides and tutorials. It comes with a free Chrome extension and works with PCs and Macs.\u00a0 One of the things I love about Scribe is that it\u2019s open source, and ideal for any form of tutorial. It records your screen as you work, transforming your mouse movements and keyboard strokes into an annotated set of screenshots and textual instructions. As a result, the manual is open source and can be modified and distributed to anybody.<\/p>\n<p>To use Scribe, simply add it to Chrome, because it\u2019s an extension. Even though it has a premium version that costs $29 per month for a single user, it still permits free users.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-4-windows-prtscn\"><span id=\"4-windows-prtscn\">#4. Windows + PrtScn<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When you press both of these keys at once, a screenshot of your whole screen will be created and saved to the Pictures&gt; Screenshots folder. The Screenshots folder can be found in the Pictures library.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-5-use-snipping-tool\"><span id=\"5-use-snipping-tool\">#5. Use Snipping Tool<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another great way of screenshotting on Windows is by using the Snipping tool.<\/p>\n<p>Relax, it doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ll have to get a new application. It\u2019s actually a feature in Windows 10. So if you have Windows 10, you can access the snipping tool. With the snipping tool, a user can screenshot any part of the window they are working on. Follow these steps to use the snipping tool for your next screenshotting time out on windows.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Go to start, click on all programs, then accessories and you\u2019ll find it staring right at you.<\/li>\n<li>Click on it and once it is open, click on new<\/li>\n<li>Go to mode and change the view to what you want. You have four options though. The first is free from snip, and the second is a rectangular snip. Thirdly, you have the Window Snip and then, the Full-Screen Snip. Selecting a window on the screen is made possible with a window snip. With free snip, a user is given the freedom to draw any shape around the content they want by just dragging the pointer.<\/li>\n<li>Whereas the rectangle snip, allows a user to just drags and selects the area of the screen they wish to capture.<\/li>\n<li>Save anywhere you want as soon as you\u2019re done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"h-6-game-bar\"><span id=\"6-game-bar\">#6.

This simply means that one can want more elaborate features that Microsoft has yet to add to Windows.\u00a0 If you\u2019re not happy with the built-in Windows options, you can look into alternative screenshot programs. These are generally third-party applications for Windows that allow you to screenshot. The following are some of these;<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"h-1-snagit\"><span id=\"1-snagit\">#1. Snagit<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Snagit is an application for taking screenshots that may be used for a variety of purposes, such as the production of animated GIFs and the capturing of entire web pages. Unfortunately, it is not free like Lightshot. If you intend to get the most from it, you\u2019ll have to upgrade to the premium version. This costs $50, but if you want to stick to the free version, you have a grace period of thirty days. That isn\u2019t all, all your work will come with a watermark. Trust me, no one wants that.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"h-2-lightshot\"><span id=\"2-lightshot\">#2. Lightshot<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Lightshot is a tool for sharing screenshots that is both simple and free to use. This third-party app is an alternative to Windows 10\u2019s Print Screen that comes with improved editing capabilities. The program may be downloaded and set up on any device running the operating system by anybody who has access to it.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"h-3-greenshoot\"><span id=\"3-greenshoot\">#3. Greenshoot<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The free tool Greenshot not only allows you to take screenshots but also enables you to edit and modify those screenshots. You can even use it for recording a whole web page as it scrolls.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-what-do-you-mean-by-windows\"><span id=\"what-do-you-mean-by-windows\">What Do You Mean by Windows?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To put it simply, Windows is an operating system (OS) that makes it possible to interact with a computer and was developed by Microsoft. Windows is the most widely used operating system (OP)in the world, and it is preinstalled on the vast majority of brand-new personal computers. With windows, your daily tasks on a computer system are ensured. From surfing the web, sending and receiving emails, editing digital photos, playing music and games, and much more. Just see it as the host environment that enables you to use a computer system.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-is-windows-10-still-free\"><span id=\"is-windows-10-still-free\">Is Windows 10 Still free?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Until 2017, upgrading to Windows 10 was free, but Microsoft drew the curtain in November. Unfortunately, not everyone has upgraded their system to Windows 10 even though Windows 11 is out. If you\u2019re one of those who have yet to upgrade and still want to upgrade your operating system, you can still do so without payment. Did I hear you ask how? Relax!<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-step-by-step-guide-to-upgrading-to-windows-10-for-free\"><span id=\"step-by-step-guide-to-upgrading-to-windows-10-for-free\">Step-by-Step Guide To Upgrading To Windows 10 For Free<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The following steps will help you upgrade to window 10 for free;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The first step to upgrading to Windows s 10 for free is to ensure your present window is legit. Also, get your activation key, you may need it at some point.<\/li>\n<li>If there\u2019s anything you do not want to lose, make sure you back it up at this point to avoid losing them permanently.<\/li>\n<li>Open a new tab and go to Windows 10 download website After that, launch the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool (click \u201cdownload tool now\u201d) and select \u201cUpgrade this PC now.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>At this point, the terms and conditions will pop up, just accept it ( you really do not have a choice anyway). Next, select the upgrade options that will allow you to maintain your current files and settings.<\/li>\n<li>Congratulations on coming this far. The last step is simply to reboot the system and go to the web. Get to \u201cUpdate &amp; Security\u201d in Settings, then activate. This is where you may check if the update to Windows 10 was successful. If it wasn\u2019t successful, simply press the activate button, most times, you; \u2018ll see it and get your Windows 10 key.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"h-can-you-download-windows-for-free\"><span id=\"can-you-download-windows-for-free\">Can You Download Windows for Free?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Sure, you can. Windows 10 and 11 are available for free download and installation without a product key from Microsoft. It works just fine, but if you want to upgrade to a licensed copy, you\u2019ll have to pay for it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-what-is-the-window-logo-called\"><span id=\"what-is-the-window-logo-called\">What is The Window Logo Called?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The window logo is called the window key. It is actually what replaced your start button.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-is-the-windows-95-logo-copyrighted\"><span id=\"is-the-windows-95-logo-copyrighted\">Is the Windows 95 logo Copyrighted?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>No, it is not. The Windows 95 logo is actually a simple geometric shape with text, and therefore it is not sufficiently novel to merit copyright protection and is, therefore, free for anyone to use.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"can-i-use-the-windows-logo\">Can I Use the Windows Logo?<\/h2>\n<p>The window logo is not under copyright protection, but that doesn\u2019t mean anyone can use it as they will. OI\u2019s are still the trademark of Microsoft, and as such, it is paramount to get due authorization before us.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"is-windows-12-coming-out\">Is Windows 12 coming out?<\/h2>\n<p>The release date for Windows 12 is unknown. Approximately three years after Windows 11\u2019s release, in 2024, the next major version of Windows will be released, according to reports.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"does-windows-have-a-new-logo\">Does Windows have a new logo?<\/h2>\n<p>The new Windows logo might have been used as the campaign\u2019s emblem because it exemplifies the entire design approach. The flat blue\/white has been changed with color gradients, and the classic squares that once framed the window have been replaced with softer, rounder borders.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"is-windows-11-cancelled\">Is Windows 11 Cancelled?<\/h2>\n<p>Your copy of Windows 11 will be current, at least through October 2023. Then, either automatically or manually install the most recent release to upgrade the operating system. A new individual support end date will then be set for that as well.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"is-windows-10-cancelled\">Is Windows 10 Cancelled?<\/h2>\n<p>How to Upgrade Your Computer to Windows 10 Through October 14, 2025, Windows 10 will continue to be supported.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft has always ensured that every new operating system comes with a new logo. Every new Windows logo mostly has something in common with the one preceding it, so it\u2019s more like an upgrade on the former. We see this with windows XP and Vista, as well as Windows 10 and 11.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"related-articles\">Related Articles<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/management\/software-management-systems\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SOFTWARE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS: Types, Features, and Examples<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/bs-business\/window-dressing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Window Dressing: Best 2023 Window Dressing Ideas for any Business (+ All you need)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/management\/metadata-management-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BEST DOCUMENTS REPOSITORY SOFTWARE &amp; TOOLS IN 2023<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/brand-stories\/discord-logo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DISCORD LOGO: Meaning, History &amp; Great Branding Ideas<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/management\/metadata-management-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">METADATA MANAGEMENT TOOLS: Meaning And All You Need To Know<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/brand-stories\/chrysler-logo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CHRYSLER LOGO: Meaning, History, Model and Price<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/terms\/workgroups\/\">WORKGROUPS: All You Need To Know<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"references\">References<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/windows-11-specifications?r=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pentagram.com\/work\/windows\/story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/www.pentagram.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/logos.fandom.com\/wiki\/Microsoft_Windows\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/logos.fandom.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/best-windows-laptop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellcurve.in\/xanax-online-where-to-buy\/\">https:\/\/www.wellcurve.in\/xanax-online-where-to-buy\/<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Microsoft officially released its first operating system, Windows 1.0\/2.0, in 1985.
