14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has just announced the Windows 11 2022 Update, another major update for the operating system that comes with lots of new features and improvements.
According to Microsoft, Windows 11 2022 Update, also known as Windows 11 version 22H2, is now rolling out in over 190 countries, though worth knowing is that the whole thing takes place in stages.
In other words, not everyone gets it today, as the phased rollout gives Microsoft more time to discover bugs and prevent them from causing more damage on certain computers.
As said, Windows 11 2022 Update comes with lots of improvements, including Snap layouts, a new Focus feature, and plenty of performance and battery optimizations.
The new feature update for Windows 11 also marks the expansion of Android app support to international markets – previously, the feature was only available in the United States.
“Having the right content fuels a great PC experience. A year ago, we redesigned the Microsoft Store on Windows to be more open and easier-to-use – a one-stop shop for the apps, games and TV shows you love,” Panos Panay, EVP, Chief Product Officer, Windows + Devices, explains.
“Today, through our partnership with Amazon, we are expanding the Amazon Appstore Preview to international markets, bringing more than 20,000 Android™ apps and games to Windows 11 devices that meet the feature-specific hardware requirements. In addition to a growing catalog of apps and games, we are also excited to share that we are moving to the next stage of the Microsoft Store Ads pilot – helping developers get content in front of the right customers.”
Another great feature that is part of Windows 11 version 22H2 is support for tabs in File Explorer. This is one of the most requested features in the operating system, and today, it finally becomes available for production devices as well.
