In October of 2012, [[Windows 8]] was released, with great promotional efforts.  However, the operating system did not sell as well as expected, partially due to the removal of the start button, which every Windows user had grown accustomed to.  To help compensate for this failure, Microsoft released Windows 8.1 in October of 2013, one year later.  This gave back the Start button, but the new "Start menu" was not improved or replaced.  A few other updates were bundled with this release as well.  Almost two years later, in July 2015, [[Windows 10]] was released.  Immediately, the public began asking, "What happened to Windows 9?"
