Microsoft has again presented the new Windows 8.1 Preview on video, this time trying to tease us ahead of the public launch on June 26.

Even though this strategy could seem a bit awkward given the fact that Microsoft has released a short presentation of the new operating system only a couple of days ago, the clip once again shows the Start button that’s going to be introduced in Windows 8.1

Keep in mind, however, that Windows 8.1’s Start button won’t launch a Start Menu, but instead will get users to the Start screen.

Microsoft explained that the Start button would be always visible when working on the desktop, while those accessing the Metro interface would be capable of clicking it by simply moving the mouse cursor in the lower left corner.
