Windows 11 tests fast copying of verification codes and shows more window pinning – Živě.cz

In the last two insider builds, Microsoft is testing two user innovations in particular. It attempts to do what some mobile apps do, namely o easy copying of verification codeswhich are sent by SMS or e-mail when logging in to some services.

A button to copy the code to the clipboard will then appear in the notification. This applies to notifications from local applications such as Mail, as well as from mobile applications that can float to your desktop thanks to Connection with your phone. The development team acknowledges that the detection may not be perfect and asks for feedback.

You will also record modified search box on the taskbar that originally appeared in Windows 11 Insider Preview build 25252. It should now be available to everyone in the Dev channel. In the fall, Microsoft tried several variants, and it is not clear how many they are currently testing.

In the fresh Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25300, you can try different ones again environment variations for window pinning. Quick location selection can be useful if you know you have that option. Microsoft doesn’t say it directly, but people are apparently overlooking the feature, although it was greatly helped by the second edition of Eleven.

The Redmonds are looking for ways to show off the pinning more. They show the Windows Forms menu faster when you hover over the refresh and maximize window buttons. Sometimes they add an icon of the current app to the location picker. They indicate that they are trying more different tweaks, but we don’t have a complete list of them and it’s up to Microsoft to enable which variations in your installation.

It is also true that when you invoke the context menu of a classic program for the Win32 environment in the Start menu and select uninstall, the system switches you to Settings, not to Control Panel. I could swear that they tried this before at Microsoft, but they probably rolled back the change and are trying it again now.
