Microsoft has never publicly confirmed that it’s working on Windows Core OS but it’s no secret that Microsoft is upgrading apps and other parts of the Windows 10 operating systems to be more modern and adaptive.

Microsoft has quietly updated the hidden UWP File Explorer in Windows 10 version 1809 (Redstone 5) with new features and other improvements. The sources familiar with the development claims that Microsoft is still working on UWP File Explorer as the software maker prepares the apps and services for Windows Core OS.

For those unfamiliar, Windows Core OS is the codename of Microsoft’s upcoming modular platform. Windows Core OS will power multiple form-factors such as the tablets, dual-screen devices, desktops and large-screen devices as well.

The UWP File Explorer in Windows 10 Redstone 5 comes with the following features:

• Drag and drop support.
• Better right-click menu support.
• Improved copy/paste system similar to legacy File Explorer.
• New cut option.
• Can set images as wallpaper directly from the app.
• UI buttons at the top instead of bottom of the app.
