Windows Spotlight on desktop background
The highlight of this update is the addition of Windows Spotlight to the desktop background. This feature dynamically displays new images as your desktop wallpaper, offering a fresh look every day. If you’re curious about an image, you can click or tap the “Learn More” button, which takes you to Bing for more information. To enable this feature, navigate to Settings > Personalization > Background > Personalize your background and choose Windows Spotlight. However, it’s important to note that this feature will roll out gradually and might not be available to all users immediately.
Enhanced lock screen content
In addition to the desktop background, this update enhances the lock screen with more content. Users can now enjoy weather, sports, traffic, and finance information directly on their lock screen. To turn on this feature, go to Settings > Personalization > Lock screen. This addition aims to provide users with useful information at a glance, even before logging in.
Other notable updates
While the spotlight features are the main attractions, the update also includes other significant improvements and fixes across the system. For instance, the Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL 2) now offers enhanced performance and ARM64 device support, making it more efficient for developers to use Linux distributions within Windows. Notepad and Windows Search have received usability enhancements, further improving the overall user experience.
