Windows 11 gets an update: Microsoft has already started rolling out a new patch with a series of improvements and features that may interest you a lot. As expected, one of the main highlights will be Copilot, Microsoft’s AI-powered assistant. However, it won’t be the only thing that receives improvements: new voice shortcuts, changes in the Snap system, a new option of Generative Erasure in photos… the list is long, as you will see below.
To start, Copilot acquires new skills. Now, the chatbot will be able to activate power saving mode, launch accessibility functions (such as Magnifier), display available Wi-Fi networks, the remaining storage space, or empty the trash.
The Photos app also becomes more capable. The new Generative Erase feature (Generative Erase) will allow us to remove unwanted objects that appear in our photos. This is something we can already experience on the latest Google and Samsung devices.
You will also be able to increase your productivity thanks to the improvements in the Snap Layouts features. Windows becomes smarter and now it is capable of remembering which applications you use most frequently and then suggest screen layouts accordingly.
Microsoft wants Windows 11 to become even more accessible. That’s why we have new improvements within the voice shortcuts. Now, we will be able to create custom voice commands to automate processes. The Narrator function is also updated with new, more natural voices.
The guys from Redmond have already deployed the update, but it may take a while to reach your device. If you want to get it as soon as possible, remember to activate the “Get the latest updates as soon as they are available” option.
