14 DAY TRIAL // The most recent Windows 11 preview build comes with additional improvements for the integration of OneDrive into the Settings app.
In other words, it’s now easier for users to know when they are running out of cloud storage, all thanks to a new cloud storage bar that shows the storage usage for the account.
“With today’s build, the Settings app supports new visuals on your Accounts page to provide a visual overview of your cloud storage usage across Microsoft products. The new visuals include a consolidated cloud storage bar that shows your storage usage for each product and notifies you if you’re running low on storage. We removed the quota bar from our subscriptions card to eliminate duplication on these visuals,” Microsoft explains.
“In the months to come, you will also see updates to what Microsoft 365 apps and services data is included in your cloud storage. These updates may impact your storage amount starting February 1st, 2023.”
Seconds in the system tray clock
In addition, the most recent Windows 11 preview build also comes with a feature that everybody knew was already on the way: support for showing the seconds in the system tray clock.
Microsoft says this is one of the top feature requests in Windows 11, and right now, it’s rolling it out gradually to insiders, so not everybody can try it out today.
“In response to user feedback, we are introducing the capability to show seconds in the clock on the system tray. This feature can be enabled by toggling the option listed under Settings > Personalization > Taskbar in the Taskbar behavior section. You can also right-click on taskbar to quickly get to taskbar settings. We are beginning to roll this change out so not all Windows Insiders will see this change right away, but we hope to make it available to everyone soon,” the company explained.
