Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on*
[Start menu]
- We are improving the filtering for recommended websites on the Start menu based on feedback from Windows Insiders so that we show the highest quality sites based on your own browsing history. Please continue to give us feedback if you see a website recommended you feel shouldn’t be.
[Spotlight on the lock screen]
- We’re trying out a few different treatments for the top right hotspot (“Like the image that you see”) on the lock screen. You can now learn more about the spotlight image on your lock screen by clicking on the “Like icon” that takes you to the Spotlight landing page.
[Spotlight on the desktop]
- We’re beginning to roll out some changes to the Desktop Spotlight icon interaction model for Windows Insiders. You can now quickly and easily discover more information about your background image by simply hovering over or clicking on the “Learn about this picture” icon on your desktop.
[Windows Share]
- When you share links or web content using the Windows share window, you will see a visual preview for that content.
Fixes gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on*
[Taskbar]
- Fixed an issue where the window previews weren’t showing when hovering over certain open apps in the taskbar.
