Yajiuma no Mori: Major Update and New Features in Windows 11 Version 22H2

“Yajiuma no Mori” will cover a wide range of topics that are not limited to news and reviews.

Major update “KB5030310” for “Windows 11 version 22H2”

The major update to “Windows 11 version 22H2” and the next feature update program “Windows 11 2023 Update” (version 23H2, Release Preview) released today includes more than 150 new features including “Copilot in Windows”. Masu.

However, it seems that simply applying a patch or upgrading the OS will not enable it. These are controlled by a feature called “Controlled Feature Rollout” (CFR), which gradually rolls out features from some environments, and is initially disabled.

Enabling new OS features

If you want to experience Copilot in Windows and other new features as soon as possible, enable the Get the latest updates as soon as they are available option in the Windows Update settings screen. Good.

When I tried it on the editorial department’s “Windows 11 version 22H2” (with “KB5030310” applied), when I enabled the option and manually checked “Windows Update”, “Windows Configuration Update” (KB5030509) crashed. . After applying it and restarting the OS, “Copilot in Windows” etc. will be enabled. Applying a “configuration update” takes only a few minutes.

Apply “KB5030310” with the option disabled. Enable the option that is not available for “Copilot in Windows” and check “Windows Update”. “Copilot in Windows” can be used by restarting the OS on which the “Windows Configuration Update Program” (KB5030509) has been downloaded. There are no changes to the OS build number etc.

The list of features enabled by this step is:Official support pageYou can check it with.

By the way, quality update patch “KB5030509” and configuration patch “KB5030310” can be installed at the same time. If you enable the option before installing “KB5030509”, “KB5030509” will also be applied, so you only need to restart the OS once.

However, if you leave the Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available option disabled, it’s up to Microsoft to decide when new features are enabled. It will be introduced once it has been thoroughly tested by interested users and is deemed stable and usable.

Even if you enable the option, it seems that the new feature may not take effect immediately, but in that case, it seems that you have no choice but to wait for the rollout. In my environment, “Copilot in Windows” was not available even if I enabled the option and applied “Windows Configuration Update” in “Windows 11 2023 Update (Release Preview)”.

Update OS standard apps to the latest version

This major update also includes many improvements to OS standard apps such as “Notepad,” “Snipping Tool,” and “Photos.” Also, a new addition is the Windows Backup app.

These updates are provided via the Store app (Microsoft Store). The automatic update feature should update without you having to do anything, but if you want to use it right away, you can manually check for updates on the Library page of the Store app.
