Recently Microsoft released the link 365 which is basically a thin client for Azure. You can’t run anything locally nor is there any local files. It literally just connects you to a desktop elsewhere.

Do you think this is what Windows 12 might look like? I feel like this idea is not practical for average consumers. Maybe they will make something that’s like Chrome OS?

It is not even a thin client for Azure. It is a physical front end for one specific, Azure based VM product. It doesn’t even support AVD which would have made it interesting for lab and classroom setups and given it a bit more utility.
