Integrating AI where it’s most meaningful, with craft and focus: You will see us be more intentional about how and where Copilot integrates across Windows, focusing on experiences that are genuinely useful and well‑crafted. As part of this, we are reducing unnecessary Copilot entry points, starting with apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets and Notepad.

OK but who thought that was a good idea in the first place and are they seeking employment elsewhere? It was and is incredibly stupid.

Reducing disruption from Windows Updates: Receiving updates should be predictable and easy to plan around, so we’re giving you more control. This includes the ability to skip updates during device setup to get to the desktop faster, restart or shut down without installing updates and pause updates for longer when needed, all while reducing update noise with fewer automatic restarts and notifications.

These are basic things that should have been there decades ago.

Thank you for holding us to a high standard. Windows is as much yours as it is ours

I'll expect my dividend check posthaste.
