Jason Ronald, Microsoft's VP of Next Generation, wants to bring "the best of Xbox and Windows together" on existing gaming handheld PCs.

I’ve been writing for more than a year about how Microsoft needs to overhaul Windows on handhelds and use an Xbox OS UI on top, keeping the complexity of the Windows desktop hid

Ronald explained that Microsoft aims to bring a console-like experience to handhelds and "make Windows great for gaming" on any device. Microsoft will have more details to share later in the year, Ronald said, adding that the idea is to move away from a Windows desktop setup on handhelds and toward a "gaming-centric" experience.

It's about time Windows 11 users got some good news about updates. Microsoft recently claimed in a blog post that thanks to 24H2's servicing stack, the update installs up to 45.6% faster than previous versions of Windows. The upcoming update will use fewer system resources, and the restart time will be faster.

Designed to replace the current Mail and Calendar apps, the new Outlook can only be removed after it's been installed.

For several months now, Microsoft has been urging Windows users to switch over to the new Outlook app, with classic Outlook recently getting an official “death date”. Many aren’t happy about this, holding off on jumping ship as long as they can — but the clock is ticking down.

The new Outlook will be automatically delivered to all computers running Windows 10. It is the same version of the program already installed in Windows 11, provided users continually download all updates.
