Are you the type of person who swears like a sailor or someone who prefers to maintain a professional level of discourse at all times? Windows will have you covered, regardless.
Microsoft is releasing new Insider builds as of Friday in multiple channels. The key feature, as it appears in Windows 11ās Beta Insider build (26120.3941) is an updated profanity filter for voice typing.
You can turn on voice typing using the WIN+H shortcut and begin dictating. It recognizes your voice about as well as a smartphone but without the need for an AI-powered NPU.
Dictation, however, can be formal such as using my voice to type an article like this or more casual like orally recapping a meeting. In certain cases, you might be tempted to drop in a swear word here and there. With the new update, you can simply opt to either ābleepā out the cussing via asterisks or else leave the profanity in in its entirety. Either way, itās up to you.
Today marks the day that Microsoft releases features like Recall, Click-to-Do, and others into the wild. To build upon that, Windows is releasing an additional feature: launching Click to Do with a Bluetooth pen. Click to Do essentially allows you to right-click and open up a menu of the most frequently used features attached to a file or app. The pen option is a bone that seems to be tossed to tablet users, as youāll still have to select which function you want to access. The idea seems to be that if youāre already inking, you can click your pen and then tap your preferred task quickly without breaking the flow.
Microsoft is also adding a small feature that can wall off your Photos from Windowsā Search function, if youāre on a work or school account and donāt want Windows to āseeā your personal photos.
Insider Beta Builds arenāt guaranteed to make it through Microsoftās testing process and land on your PC. But thereās a good chance they will!
