There is faster and more accurate search, improved Widgets section, and tabs in File Explorer. “Windows anticipate your needs and save you time,” says Microsoft.

The update also comes with Focus sessions which will work best with Do Not Disturb or DND modes helping the users minimise distractions by muting notifications as well as turning off the taskbar badges, according to Microsoft.

Windows Studio Effects has been updated to enhance video and audio calls. Additional gaming features and updates to the Microsoft Store experience have also been included in the update.

As Microsoft claims Windows 11 to be the most secure Windows version yet – it is introducing Smart App control which will help in safely downloading apps and the Defender App for Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers.

Windows 11 was officially launched almost a year ago on October 5. It was a major upgrade to Windows 10 as the company brought an OS after seven years.
