Microsoft is considered to be focusing on a brand new operating system version that may ship as Windows 12, therefore landing as a successor to Windows 11.

And while the job about this new OS is currently underway, few specifics happen to be shared, with people familiar with the problem previously saying that the rollout could take devote 2023 or 2024.

For the moment, however, what fuels the thrill for Windows 12 is a teaser presented by Microsoft itself and which envisions several refinements towards the desktop, including a floating taskbar.

The thought of having a floating taskbar instead of a traditional design isn't entirely new, but however, the teaser released by Microsoft is believed to be evidence that could participate the Windows 12 feature arsenal.

Obviously, it's too soon to tell if this is a particular thing or otherwise because of the focus on Windows 12 is still within the first phases, but more information on this front should emerge sooner rather than later.

In the meantime, reddit user Busy_Public_8997 has used Microsoft's teaser to create their very own mockup envisioning the feel of Windows 12. Once again, the taskbar and also the centered icons are the type stealing the show. The machine tray and the desktop clock have also been moved to the top of the screen within an approach that makes the Windows desktop look heavily inspired through the one out of macOS.

The desktop weather now resides within the top left corner, and in a lot of ways, this seems like the more natural spot for this type of feature.

Obviously, it's difficult to know if this is precisely what Windows 12 is going to look when it goes live for production devices, but hopefully, we'll get a closer look at the upcoming operating system because the focus on it advances.
