Microsoft is due to release the next major update for Windows 10 in March or April. Rumor has it that the release, code-named Redstone 4, may be called the “Spring Creators Update,” following in the tradition of the October 2017 Fall Creators Update and the April 2017 Creators Update before that.

Pick up where you left off with Timeline
The much anticipated Timeline feature debuts with the spring release. It's part of the Task View tool and takes snapshots of your activities in various Windows apps over time — documents you were working on, web pages you visited, and so on. After a series of these snapshots have been archived by Timeline, you can click the Task View icon and scroll vertically back in time through thumbnails of these past activities, or use the search box to search for a specific activity. Click on any thumbnail, and the appropriate app and piece of content will be reopened.
