Windows 10's Next Update Will Be Called 'Spring Creators Update' (theverge.com)

The Verge reports: Microsoft is planning to reuse its "Creators Update" naming for a third Windows 10 update. The software giant has strangely not yet officially named its next Windows 10 update, due next month, but it has been testing a future update that appears to reveal the spring update name. "Windows 10 Spring Creators Update" has been spotted in the latest test builds of the Redstone 5 update expected to be released later this fall. Microsoft first launched Windows 10 Creators Update last spring, followed by the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update in the fall. The new Windows 10 Spring Creators Update naming was originally spotted in Microsoft blog posts last year, but this is the first time it has appeared in the operating system itself.

    And, living in the southern hemisphere, it is hardly spring. I guess this update is not for me.

      I thought the update was meant for spring creators. If you have metal wire and a pair of pliers, you should be all set.

    It's an update that breaks a bunch of stuff, and resets a huge swath of your settings... at least that's been my experience to date.

    Spring creators around the world say "it's about fucking time somebody did something for us". Now they can make springs large and small with the ease of technology, and step out of the stone age.
