In October – alongside its new Surface Studio all-in-one PC, and Surface Dial rotary input device – Microsoft announced details of the Windows 10 Creators Update , the next major suite of improvements and additions to its OS. Microsoft didn’t commit to a firm release date for the new update, beyond stating that it would arrive sometime in “early 2017”.
Internal references to Windows 10 ‘Version 1703’ previously hinted at plans to make the Creators Update available in March , as the first two digits of the OS version number are intended to refer to the year of its release, while the last two refer to the month.
