About this tag
Semantic file search is a new AI-powered feature in Microsoft's Copilot app for Windows 11, currently rolling out to Windows Insiders on Copilot+ PCs. It allows users to find documents and images using natural-language queries instead of relying on exact filenames or keywords. The feature is part of a redesigned Copilot home that surfaces recent files, apps, and conversations in a dashboard-style interface. Discussions on WindowsForum.com highlight how semantic file search aims to make file discovery more intuitive, moving from keyword-first to intent-first search. The feature is delivered via Copilot app builds starting with version 1.25082.132.0 and is gradually being made available to Insiders.
