Microsoft's Windows 8 Release to Manufacturing (RTM) is "on schedule" for the first week of August, and new screenshots leaked this weekend show a number of changes planned for the final version of the operating system.
The cloud storage platform will drop support for older versions of Windows in early 2022.
Microsoft responded with Windows 8 and its Surface RT tablet.
