Earlier this year, Microsoft announced that they would be shifting to
monthly updates for Windows. While this move made sense, considering the new rapid release cycle, the company also shot down the rumors of Windows 8.1 'update 2'.
The confusion around the name of Windows Threshold was linked to the fact that those with inside sources,
like Neowin, were hearing that the next major update to Windows would be called 8.1 update 2 or Windows 9. Because of this, we kept calling the next major update
Windows Threshold, and not 9 or 8.1 update 2 as the signals were confusing. Now that Windows 10 is out, we have a much better understanding of the picture.
