Windows 10 Preview Gives Hints at an OS and Shell Breakup Windows 10 build 18917 hints at a separation of elements like the Action Center and Start Menu in the first half of 2020, opening the OS to a more modular experience.

Windows 10 preview build 18917 has given developers a peek into Microsoft’s plans to separate the OS’ Shell from the rest of the system. Under the new methodology, the company would make Shell UI parts like the Action Center, taskbar, and Start menu independently updatable.



Twitter’s Albacore found evidence of this via a ‘Shell Update Agent’, which he says “is capable of obtaining and updating the shell on demand”.

It’s referred to as a PackageFamilyName, which Albacore believes is enough proof to discern it will be a separate packaged component that could even be shipped inside an Appx. This component is associated with a mechanism called Undocked Shell.
