    Windows Central[^]:

    For the last several months, we've been talking about an internal project ongoing at Microsoft, codenamed "Windows Lite" which is a new version of Windows powered by Windows Core OS and built from the ground up as a modern platform for new devices.

    Because Windows 10 was, "The Last Version of Windows"?

    I'm not entirely sure that the acronym 'FFU' is their best choice.

      Better than "Flash Update Core Kernel" yes, obscenely ugly.

        Built from the ground up? Nothing like that is build from the ground up these days; it's more illusion than reality. Like in, roll the dice and you get a new result, but the dice are still the same.

          How about just "Windows Without Cortana"? Or is that fat shaming?
