The new icons are part of the new Segoe Fluent Icons font, and they include rounded and simplified designs. The new system icons are available in the Start menu and the Settings app. For example, in the Start menu, you will find the new icons in the left navigation pane. In the Settings app, the Fluent Design icons are everywhere, including the homepage for each settings category. Also, each page and most of the settings now feature a new modern icon. While these new icons are available in the Dev Channel, which is not tied to any specific release, it is expected that they will ship with the Sun Valley update (version 21H2) during the second half of the year. In addition to new icons, Microsoft is also planning more significant changes for the second semi-annual update to help modernize Windows 10 even further. Some of which include more tweaks for the Settings app, and an updated Start menu that floats above the taskbar with rounded corners for tiles. Buttons, controls, and sliders are also expected to be redesigned. We are going to see improvements for context menus and tweaks for the action center. The File Explorer and default apps are also expected to include some visual changes to help make the experience more modern and consistent, and much more.
