Alongside the latest security fixes, Microsoft just added a number of new features to Windows 11 via the KB5058411 update.
The new Copilot+ AI feature known as Windows Recall and the ability to use Phone Link in the Start menu have been mentioned in previous articles, so we donât need to mention them again.
One of the best improvements in the update is that Windows Search now supports AI, which meansâamong other thingsâthat you can now use ânatural languageâ in your search queries to find documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and images.
File Explorer also got some boosts, like how itâs now possible to view Microsoft 365 content directly in File Explorer (but requires you to pay for the service). File Explorer should also open files and unpack ZIP archives much faster, and as for the colors in the bars, the shades of blue and green are now darker than before.
Other goodies in the update include Microsoft removing the blue-colored background for shortcuts on the desktop, which users complained about, as well as numerous bug fixes, which should mean that the risk of running into âblue screenâ crashes has gone down.
Update KB5058411 should automatically download and install to your system, assuming youâre on Windows 11 24H2. If it hasnât yet, you should be able to jump-start it with a manual check in Windows Update.
