Microsoft recently released Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26220.7051 to the Dev and Beta channels, which is a significant addition for users looking to access the latest features. This release allows users in the Beta channel to receive the same updates as in the Dev channel, as long as both are based on Windows 11 version 25H2. This provides a rare opportunity for users to switch between channels as long as the builds are identical.
One of the standout features of this build is the integration of ‘Ask Copilot’ right into the taskbar. This feature, which can be optionally activated, allows seamless interaction with the operating system and provides a personalized user experience. Activation takes place via the settings under Personalization and taskbar, whereby there is also the option to start the Copilot app automatically when logging in. Despite this innovation, the classic Windows search remains available.
Another important aspect of this update is the expansion of full-screen mode for gaming handhelds. Originally developed for ASUS ROG Ally and ROG Ally X, this feature is now also supported on MSI Claw models. The full-screen mode is specially optimized for operation with controllers and is intended to minimize background processes to enable a smoother gaming experience. Users can enable this feature via Settings under Gaming and Full Screen Mode, with Xbox must be selected as the home app.
The expansion of full-screen mode is a strategic move by Microsoft to increase the appeal of Windows 11 for gamers. In the coming months, Microsoft plans to expand this feature to more handheld devices, which could open the platform to a broader user base. These developments demonstrate Microsoft’s commitment to continually improving Windows 11 and adapting it to the needs of modern users.
