What's new in Windows 11?

Ecco Windows 11, più sicurezza per il lavoro ibrido e a distanza: tutte le novità - Cyber Security 360

 

The latest Windows 11 features introduced across recent system updates focus on three core pillars: AI integration, user experience optimization, and security/update management.

1. System Management and Windows Update

  • Power Options & Update Separation: Redesigned Start menu power options. Clicking Shut down or Restart performs the immediate action without forcing pending updates (which remain separate as Update and shut down / Update and restart).

  • Pause Updates Flexibility: Pausing updates can now be extended up to 35 days with a calendar-based interface and clearer renewal options.

  • Consolidated Restarts: Reduced surprise reboots by bundling driver, firmware, and .NET updates into the monthly cumulative update (Patch Tuesday).

  • Clearer Driver Names: Driver updates in Windows Update now specify the affected device type (e.g., display, audio, battery) directly in the title.

2. User Experience and Interface

  • Taskbar & Start Menu Refinements: A more responsive and streamlined interface, introducing dark mode for several legacy dialog boxes and cleaned-up context menus (right-click) for faster response times.

  • Modular Copilot: Copilot operates as a standard standalone app, allowing simple uninstallation without registry tweaks.

  • File Explorer: Under-the-hood search component rewrites improve indexing speed and overall folder navigation responsiveness.

  • Phone Link: Expanded integration for both Android and iOS devices, enabling quick handling of calls, notifications, and cross-device copy-paste.

3. Artificial Intelligence & Copilot+ PC Features

  • Advanced Creative Tools:

    • Paint: Integration of tools like Cocreator, background removal, and layer opacity support.

    • Photos & Clipchamp: Features like Generative Erase to remove unwanted objects from images and AI-guided video editing.

  • Snipping Tool: Built-in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to extract and select text directly from screenshots, alongside enhanced screen recording controls.

  • Arm Compatibility (Prism): Updates to the Prism emulation layer for Arm-based PCs, significantly boosting x64 app performance and compatibility.

4. Security and Performance

  • Administrator Protection: Enhanced security mechanisms for privilege elevation and administrative account management.

  • Smart App Control: Utilizes predictive models to proactively block unverified or potentially harmful applications from executing.

  • Windows Hello Redesign: Improved facial recognition IR algorithms and fingerprint scan speeds for faster login.

Basic PC General Concepts and Terminology in Windows.

If you're not totally familiar with the various components of a modern PC, then this chapter will help you understand some of the common terminology used throughout the guide and what  each hardware component does in layman's terms. Note that I use a human body analogy to describe the function of C hardware components to hopefully clarify their functionality. Experienced PC users can skip this chapter. Bits and Bytes. You will often see the terms Bits, Bytes, Kilobytes, Megabytes and Gigabytes (or their abbreviations) being thrown around in guides such as this one. A Bit is the lowest form of computer information and  can take the value 0 or 1 (i.e. Off or On). All computer functionality is derived from the behavior of Bits. For our purposes, the main conversion factors you need to know are: 8 bits (b) = 1 Byte (B) 1,024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte (KB) 1,024 Kilobytes (KB) = 1 Megabyte (MB) 1,024 Mega bytes (MB) = 1 Gigabyte (GB) Note in particular that the general con...

Windows 7 Keyboard Shortcuts.

Keyboard shortcuts are combinations of two or more keys that, when pressed, can be used to perform a task that would typically require a mouse or other pointing device. Keyboard shortcuts can make it easier to interact with your computer, saving you time and effort as you work with Windows and other programs.  Most programs also provide accelerator keys that can make it easier to work with menus and other commands. Check the menus of programs for accelerator keys.  If a letter is underlined in a menu, that usually means that pressing the Alt key in combination with the underlined key will have the same effect as clicking that menu item. Pressing the Alt key in some programs, such as Paint and WordPad, shows commands that are labeled with additional keys that you can press to use them. Dialog box keyboard shortcuts. The following table contains keyboard shortcuts for use in dialog boxes. Press this key To do this: Ctrl+Tab Move forward through tabs...
