Microsoft released the much awaited Windows 10 Anniversary update to all eligible Windows PCs on Wednesday. In the press release, the American software giant, without specifying the actual date, announced that it would also deploy the update for Windows 10 mobile phones in coming weeks.
Some impatient Windows phone users took to Twitter to directly ask the company for the official release details. Surprisingly, the regional mobile arm of Microsoft, Lumia India, revealed that the company will commence roll-out process Aug. 9 onwards.
