Windows 11: Microsoft is improving the file explorer

A second change for Windows 11 also affects the backup reminder in Explorer: In the future, right-clicking will display a menu with which you can deactivate reminders of cloud backups either for a month or permanently. Although this step was previously possible, it required significantly more effort.

According to Windows Latest, the two changes should appear for Windows 11 24H2 and for Windows 11 23H2, so you don’t have to switch to the latest version of the operating system. Both functions have not yet been officially announced by Microsoft, and they are currently disabled by default in the beta build. It will therefore take some time before the new improvements to the file explorer arrive in regular Windows 11 installations. In particular, there could be delays if Microsoft discovers further bugs during the testing phase that prevent publication.
