Microsoft is reportedly working on a dual-screen Windows 10 device and it’s codename Andromeda. Windows Core OS, the company’s long rumoured modular OS is supposed to power the dual-screen Andromeda.

A new report today suggests that the Microsoft’s Andromeda OS or the device itself could come with a productivity mode. The Twitter user Walking Cat recently discovered a reference of “AndromedaProductivityMode” in “SettingsHandler_Display.dll” and this string was spotted in latest Windows 10 SDK.

btw: seen inside SettingsHandler_Display.dll

It’s worth noting that yesterday, another developer discovered reference of Windows Core Device Family in latest Windows 10 SDK.

Andromeda, is that you?

It could be but everything at this stage is nothing more than a rumour. While the evidence is indeed real but Microsoft hasn’t confirmed whether the company is working on a dual-screen device or not.

A report published last month claimed that Microsoft has pushed back the release of Surface Andromeda, but this doesn’t necessarily mean the company isn’t thinking of ways to improve the dual-screen PC. It’s likely that Microsoft’s Andromeda will undergo both hardware and software changes before Microsoft brings it to the market.
