Microsoft’s latest update to Windows 11 marks a deliberate pivot: the operating system is being reframed as an AI-first platform, with Copilot graduating from a sidebar chatbot to a multimodal, permissioned assistant that can listen, see, and — under controlled conditions — act on your behalf...

Microsoft’s Copilot on Windows has taken a decisive step from chat assistant to document workhorse: the Copilot app can now generate Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations and PDFs directly from a chat session, and it can link to personal email and cloud accounts so it can...

Microsoft has pushed a major Copilot update that brings Copilot Voice and Copilot Vision to every Windows 11 PC, removing the feature gap that previously segmented capabilities between Copilot+ machines with dedicated NPUs and the broader installed base of Windows 11 systems.
Background...
Microsoft’s latest Windows 11 update turns the operating system into a more talkative, visually aware assistant by baking deeper Copilot voice, vision and “agentic” features into the desktop — a strategic push that pairs new user-facing convenience with hardware gating, enterprise controls, and...
Microsoft’s Copilot has grown teeth: a wave of recent updates adds Voice, Vision, advanced reasoning modes and deeper app integrations that promise real time productivity gains — and an equal number of eyebrow-raising privacy, accuracy, and cost questions.

Microsoft’s brief, playful tease on its official Windows social account — “Your hands are about to get some PTO. Time to rest those fingers…something big is coming Thursday.” — has set the Windows community buzzing and narrowed expectations fast: the company is preparing to show a hands‑free...
When a high‑profile buyer unboxed a new laptop and refused to create a cloud‑tethered identity, the moment did more than spark a headline — it crystallized a simmering debate about ownership, defaults, and how much of a device’s behavior buyers actually control during first boot.

Cookies are small but powerful: they smooth logins, remember preferences, and speed up sites — and they also enable cross‑site tracking and complex ad ecosystems that many users want to control. This feature piece unpacks how to view, allow, block, delete and use cookies in Microsoft Edge...
Microsoft's Copilot can now be told — in plain English — what to remember and what to forget, and users can inspect and edit that memory directly from the Copilot settings, a change that shifts the conversation about AI assistants from one of raw capability to one of ongoing stewardship and risk...
Microsoft’s future Windows is being sketched in two very different places right now: inside Redmond, where engineering and product teams are double‑downing on Windows 11 and AI-driven features, and across the internet, where imaginative designers are already releasing cinematic “Windows 12”...
Microsoft’s Windows engineering teams have been reunified under a single organizational umbrella and, in the same breath, a controversial report has surfaced claiming Microsoft 365 Copilot has only about 8 million paying subscribers — developments that together cast a long shadow over...
Microsoft’s official guidance on what Microsoft Edge collects, how that data is used, and where you can control those flows is clearer than it was a few years ago, but it still hides important trade‑offs and operational details that every Windows user and administrator should understand before...
For many users the sudden arrival of AI across phones, browsers, apps, and the Windows desktop feels less like a helpful upgrade and more like a persistent guest who won't leave — and there are now practical ways to send that guest out the door. This guide distills the most reliable, up-to-date...
Setting up a new Windows PC should feel like opening a fresh notebook — clean, fast, and yours — but the out‑of‑the‑box Windows 11 experience often ships with features that intrude on privacy, performance, and focus. This feature unpacks the seven settings and behaviours many power users disable...
Microsoft's direction is clear: there won't be a standalone "AI browser" from Redmond — instead, Copilot is being folded deeper into Microsoft Edge, turning the browser into an AI-first, agentic assistant that acts on context, orchestrates multi-step tasks, and tightly integrates with Microsoft...
Microsoft's argument for upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 has moved beyond pure aesthetics: over the last few years Microsoft has layered meaningful multitasking, gaming, AI and security improvements into Windows 11 that — in many practical scenarios — do a better job than the equivalent...
Windows 11 ships polished and modern — but that polish often hides a surprising amount of preinstalled software, background services, and telemetry hooks that can drain performance and privacy. A recent community guide focused on removing bloatware and disabling tracking lays out a practical...
The conversation around artificial intelligence and work has moved from abstract speculation to hard-edged debate — and a recent poll-driven piece on Windows Central captures that anxiety in stark terms while pointing to concrete research showing which roles are already feeling pressure...
