Curated for You and Microsoft have moved a high-concept idea into the mainstream: an AI-powered, conversational fashion discovery tool is now live inside Microsoft Copilot, delivering visually composed, shoppable outfit recommendations for situational prompts like “What should I wear to a beach wedding?” or “Outfit ideas for Italy.” This activation transforms a conversational assistant into a style companion that routes natural-language wardrobe questions to Curated for You’s merchandising...

Microsoft’s decision to stop servicing Windows 10 in mid‑October has turned a calendar item into an operational crisis for many business process outsourcing (BPO) firms — a sector that runs large, tightly controlled desktop estates and handles regulated, high‑value customer data. The technical facts are clear: Windows 10 mainstream servicing ends on October 14, 2025, and while devices will continue to run, they will no longer receive routine OS‑level security updates unless enrolled in...

Valve has put a firm date on the end of an era: beginning January 1, 2026, Steam will stop supporting 32‑bit editions of Windows, leaving Windows 10 32‑bit — the last commonly supported 32‑bit Windows SKU — on an officially unsupported path and urging the tiny fraction of players still running that platform to move to 64‑bit Windows as soon as possible. Background Valve’s announcement closes a long transition away from 32‑bit desktop computing that accelerated over the last decade. Hardware...

Microsoft has begun rolling out Gaming Copilot — a voice-enabled, context-aware AI assistant — into the Windows 11 Game Bar and will extend the feature to the Xbox mobile app in October, bringing in-game help, achievement tracking, and on‑screen analysis directly to PC players aged 18 and over while excluding mainland China from the initial regional rollout.

The companion brings a hands‑free Voice Mode, on‑screen screenshot analysis, and account‑aware recommendations designed to keep players in the moment and inside Microsoft’s gaming ecosystem while...

Microsoft’s looming October 14, 2025 deadline for Windows 10 support has a hard, immediate consequence for meeting-room infrastructure: devices running Windows 10 Team edition — notably Surface Hub v1 — will stop receiving vendor updates and will no longer run the Teams experiences IT teams expect, forcing many organizations into rapid upgrades, replacement, or architecture workarounds. Microsoft’s lifecycle guidance makes the cut-off explicit for Teams Rooms on Windows and Surface Hub...

The latest publicly available AMD Radeon Graphics Drivers package continues to push the company’s Adrenalin software suite forward, packaging performance optimizations, new upscaling and frame‑generation technologies, and per‑game latency improvements into a single installer while maintaining support across multiple RDNA generations; at the same time, the rapid release cadence and introduction of advanced AI‑assisted features raise important compatibility and stability considerations for...

Microsoft has set a firm deadline: Windows 10 mainstream support ends on October 14, 2025, and that cutover changes the security posture for millions of PCs worldwide. After that date, most Windows 10 machines will no longer receive monthly security patches, feature updates, or standard technical support — unless they’re enrolled in a limited Extended Security Updates (ESU) pathway or otherwise covered by a paid support arrangement. Background / Overview Microsoft announced that Windows 10...

Windows 11 ships with a lot of useful functionality — and a lot of defaults that many users find noisy, intrusive, or simply unnecessary. A recent community write-up that recommends three Group Policy tweaks — turning off Microsoft Defender, disabling toast notifications, and preventing OneDrive from auto‑backing up or syncing — is a succinct starter checklist for anyone building a quieter, more predictable Windows install. The original piece lays out the user experience case: Defender can...

Work is changing shape: Microsoft is shifting Microsoft 365 Copilot from a personal assistant into a set of collaboration-first agents that live inside Teams, SharePoint, and Viva Engage — effectively giving every team, meeting, project, and community an AI teammate that acts on shared context and organizational knowledge.

Background / Overview Microsoft’s Copilot brand has expanded aggressively across productivity and...

Valve will stop supporting Steam on 32‑bit Windows systems on January 1, 2026 — a move that affects a vanishingly small slice of the PC gaming population but signals a permanent industry shift away from 32‑bit desktop platforms and toward exclusive 64‑bit support. Background The end of Steam's official support for Windows 10 32‑bit arrives at the tail end of a wider platform lifecycle: Microsoft itself has scheduled Windows 10 mainstream servicing to end on October 14, 2025, with an optional...

The goal is a vivid, accurate HDR experience — not...

With Microsoft continuing to push AI into the heart of Windows while simultaneously shipping iterative Windows 11 updates, the question most users and IT managers are asking is simple but pressing: will Windows 12 arrive in late 2025 or early 2026 — and if so, what will it actually change? The short answer is: there is strong industry momentum toward a next‑generation Windows shaped by deep AI integration, Copilot+ hardware, and a more modular architecture, but Microsoft has not formally...

Microsoft has quietly delivered on a long-teased promise: an AI assistant that can sit beside you while you play, answer questions out loud, analyze what’s on your screen, and help you track achievements — and it’s now rolling out to Windows 11 via the PC Game Bar as Gaming Copilot. The rollout begins on September 18, 2025 for players aged 18 and older on Windows, with wider mobile support arriving in October through the Xbox app; Microsoft says the feature will be available everywhere...

Microsoft’s recent nudge to users — asking “what do you miss most in Windows?” — is more than a PR moment; it’s a revealing sign that the company is wrestling with conflicting priorities for Windows 11: glossy AI capabilities and the long list of everyday quality‑of‑life features that power users, creatives, and nostalgic Windows veterans still crave. The exchange, spotlighted by a Microsoft engineer’s outreach during the company’s global hackathon conversation, has pushed long‑standing asks...

Anthropic’s latest public dataset and a fresh wave of industry reporting make one thing uncomfortably clear: artificial intelligence is not drifting into the mainstream — it’s charging in, and its adoption pattern is already reshaping who benefits and who lags behind. The company’s September 15, 2025 Anthropic Economic Index (AEX) maps Claude usage across 150+ countries and every U.S. state, showing dramatic geographic concentration, rapid enterprise automation, and a marked shift from...

Microsoft’s stock showed only a modest pullback on the trading day covered by the GuruFocus bulletin, but the options market painted a subtly different picture — one of cautious positioning and a noticeable tilt toward downside protection among sophisticated traders. The headline numbers are straightforward: shares down roughly $0.66 to about $509.36, roughly 204,000 options contracts traded, a put/call ratio near 0.35, and a 30‑day implied volatility (IV30) around 20.2 — implying an...

Valve’s Steam client will stop supporting 32‑bit editions of Windows on January 1, 2026, a decision that closes the final mainstream chapter for 32‑bit Windows on the platform and forces a small—but real—cohort of users to migrate, back up data, or accept an unsupported client. Background / Overview Steam’s shift away from 32‑bit Windows is the latest step in a multi‑year trend across the PC ecosystem: developers, browser engines, anti‑cheat vendors, and operating‑system vendors have...
