Nelle scorse ore, Microsoft ha reso disponibile la Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25247 all’interno del canale Dev, introducendo con essa una nuova funzione di ricerca relativa al testo copiato, la possibilità di vedere i secondi nell’orologio della taskbar e una lista piuttosto lunga di altre piccole novità, miglioramenti di varia natura e fix vari.

Insomma, dopo che nei giorni addietro vi avevamo parlato di Microsoft e di Windows 11 soprattutto in relazione alle novità per Collegamento al telefono e ai rumor sul prossimo major update del sistema operativo, oggi vediamo cosa sta arrivando di nuovo dinanzi agli occhi degli utenti del canale Dev.

Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25247: le novità dell’aggiornamento

La settimana di Microsoft si chiude quindi con una nuova build per i Windows Insider ed è di quelle corpose: ci sono alcune cose già viste nel canale Beta, ma anche delle novità assolute.

A questo proposito, si segnala una nuova funzione di ricerca relativa che chiama in causa il testo copiato: se fino a questo momento, una volta copiato un testo, si ottenevano suggerimenti per effettuare chiamate con Teams o per aggiungere eventi al calendario Outlook, l’ultima aggiunta permette di inserire il testo copiato direttamente su Edge per avviare una ricerca sul web. L’unico limite è legato proprio dal browser: bisogna usare per forza quello di Microsoft. Come spesso accade, questa novità è disponibile a partire dagli utenti negli Stati Uniti.

Una seconda aggiunta tocca il menu Start: nella sezione dei suggerimenti fanno capolino contenuti suggeriti come ad esempio siti web, così facendo il colosso di Redmond avrà modo di promuovere siti web popolari e offrire un accesso rapido ad essi. Va detto che solo pochi Insider vedranno da subito tale novità e potranno comunque disattivarla del tutto laddove non interessati.

In risposta ai feedback degli utenti, poi, viene aggiunta la possibilità di avere anche i secondi visibili nell’orologio della taskbar, nell’angolo in basso a destra.

Altre aggiunte di questa build non sono dei totali inediti, in quanto già viste in altri canali Windows Insider, come nel caso della possibilità di usare Windows Studio Effects — con base AI e utili per le videochiamate — direttamente nel pannello dei Quick Settings, senza dover entrare ogni volta nelle Impostazioni. Va detto che questa funzione è riservata ai soli dispositivi dotati di NPU, dunque aventi processori con base Arm come il Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3.

Non mancano, infine, dei miglioramenti circa i suggerimenti su come ridurre i consumi energetici, dei piccoli ritocchi al Task Manager, con una barra di ricerca che facilita il reperimento del processo desiderato, e un nuovo banner per lo storage in cloud nelle Impostazioni.
