Microsoft Releases Windows 11 Upgrades

Tech
Speaker 1: [00:01:30] Since it's released last year, you've told us that you love Windows 11 more than any other version, and that inspires us. You inspire us to take it further. [00:02:00] We are excited about the positive response on our first update to Windows 11 that we released a few weeks ago, and now I have the privilege of showing you even more. Over a billion people, nearly one in five individuals require some level of accessibility to utilize the technology that many of us take for granted every day. One challenge with many existing accessibility tools is that they require selecting the specific accessible app first before you can begin what [00:02:30] you set out to do. In Windows 11, we moved accessibility capabilities from the constraints of the apps and into the operating system itself. Windows 11 now includes system-wide live captions from any form of audio content, so you can see it instantly transcribed on the screen. Speaker 1: Voice access, which allows you to control your PC using only your voice and natural voices. For narrator, creating more pleasant sounding audio to assist in navigating reading, browsing [00:03:00] the web, and interacting with apps. These Windows features paired with our adaptive kit and the new adaptive accessories and 3D printed pen grips are designed to keep you focused on creating and being productive, putting you at the center. We believe the world is a better place when everyone can participate in an increasingly connected world, security concerns are top of mind. Windows 11 is the most secure version of Windows ever. Smart App Control uses Microsoft's [00:03:30] AI to build a policy which only allows apps to run that are predicted to be safe and will prevent malicious apps by blocking untrusted or unsigned software. Smart app control also blocks scripts from the internet, which are the most common ransomware attack methods Using ai, Microsoft assesses over 43 trillion signals a day and blocks over 900 password attacks every second, even better. Speaker 1: Windows 11 with Windows Hello and Passwordless Support [00:04:00] allows you to log into websites and windows without a password at all. The ultimate defense against fishing, this is Windows working for you to keep you and your family safe. We know you want ways to work faster and more easily. The complexity of switching between projects, finding that document, remembering what you wanna do next without getting distracted creates friction points that add up over the course of a day. And that's why we're helping you find files faster with smarter [00:04:30] recommendations right in the start menu. Open frequently used apps and websites in an instant by creating new start menu folders. Make adjustments to common controls with quick settings and stay more organized with tabs in File Explorer and Snap is now even better. Windows understands that you're trying to arrange your content and conveniently offers you snap layouts that slide in from the top of the screen. Speaker 1: And with guided Snap Assist Windows recommends which apps you can place in the open spaces. [00:05:00] This also makes comparing webpages in Microsoft Edge, easy yet powerful. More people are turning to Windows to stay connected than ever before. Your ability to truly connect with others and collaborate in this hybrid world is essential to help you look and sound your best. We are introducing Windows Studio, camera, and audio effects enabled by advanced AI on new Npu devices with so much going on around you, staying organized isn't just about what's on the screen. Microsoft [00:05:30] Presenter plus features quick and natural interaction with teams, so you can easily advance your slides and mute or unmute with the push of a button. And the audio doc simplifies your physical desk setup by having one combined accessory for docking to monitors a premium speaker and a clear microphone array. When it's time to take a break or unwind from your day, we want to help fuel your passions. Whether you're playing the latest game or looking to lean back and stream, you can now search and find more apps, [00:06:00] including over 20,000 Android apps from the Amazon app store on Windows. When you're ready to jump back into your favorite games on your pc, they're just a tap away with your Xbox controller. Speaker 1: Lastly, I want to highlight the work we have done to help Windows customers across their devices. We are continuing our commitment to Windows being the most open platform, putting the customer's needs at the forefront. For the last few years, Windows customers who have Android phones have experienced that promise with [00:06:30] integration across messaging, calling and photos directly to their Windows pc, bringing the two most important devices in their lives closer together. Today, I am excited to announce that we're making it easier than ever for customers to access their iPhone photos and the entertainment they love from Apple on their Xbox and Windows devices. We start by bringing iCloud photos integration into the Windows 11 Photos app. Just install iCloud for Windows from the Microsoft store and the photos you take [00:07:00] with your iPhone will appear automatically. We also wanna help our customers access the entertainment they love even more easily. Speaker 1: The Apple TV app is already on Xbox and starting today, Apple Music will be available as well. We're thrilled to announce that Apple Music and the Apple TV app will launch on Windows next year. Preview of these apps will be available on the Microsoft store soon. You can listen to your favorite music playlists and more from Apple Music and watch your favorite Apple TV plus series and [00:07:30] movies right on your Windows. PC integrations like these are just one way. We're making windows available to more people with great experiences you love across every device you use.
