Microsoft is gearing up to unveil the latest upgrade for Windows 11, aptly named “Moment 5” or the “February 24 Moment.” Set to roll out in the coming weeks, this update brings about significant changes worth noting.
Firstly, Microsoft is returning to its roots by adopting an annual update schedule for Windows 11 post this release. What does this mean for you? Expect more stability and fewer major overhauls to your operating system. Say goodbye to frequent “moment” updates and welcome a more predictable schedule.
Now, let’s delve into the highlights of Moment 5…
A standout feature is the improvement of Windows 11’s built-in accessibility features, enhancing the user experience for those dependent on them. Voice Access now supports multiple monitors and additional languages, introducing “voice shortcuts” for custom voice-activated commands. Narrator gains the ability to preview new natural voices, working seamlessly with voice access for various tasks.
Notably, you can now write directly into text boxes using a stylus across the operating system, streamlining the use of digital pens without the need for a dedicated handwriting panel.
For the first time, Microsoft is allowing the uninstallation of some in-box apps. Apps like Edge, Camera, and Photos can be removed if they’re not on your radar.
