Windows 9 is Microsoft’s next big project and according to people familiar with the matter, the operating system is going to include some pretty major updates, including the possibility to run Metro apps on the desktop.

As you can see in this concept created by Hassaan Ali, the idea of bringing Metro apps on the desktop is not bad at all and might actually make sense given the fact that Microsoft is working so hard to increase popularity of this new environment.

The Windows Store, Bing apps, and all the other Metro items installed on your computer would thus be able to run on the desktop, which could really come in handy for users who want to launch Modern apps without going to the Start screen every time.

Aside from this, Microsoft is also said to be working to bring back the Start Menu in Windows 9, another feature that could clearly make the operating system look more familiar and appeal to a wider user category. It remains to be seen, however, if Microsoft really plans to make so many changes to its Windows platform.
