Microsoft shipped Windows 11 earlier this month without one key feature the company promised: Android app support. Microsoft is currently testing Android apps in Windows 11 internally, and the company plans to ship the feature to Windows insiders soon. There is not much information about how Windows 11 will work with Android applications. All we know is that Microsoft partnered with Amazon to offer users an option to install Android apps from the Amazon App Store. Also, Windows 11 might support installing Android apps from other sources.

Oracle is currently working on a TPM passthrough driver for its VirtualBox virtual machines, and VMWare Workstation Player (the free version of Workstation Pro) now offers Windows 11-compatible software TPM.

One of the changes Microsoft promised for Windows 11 users was a completely overhauled set of "3D" emojis. After several months of waiting, Microsoft finally delivered the promised redesign. Yesterday, Microsoft released a new Dev build for Windows insiders with the new emojis. After installing the build, users quickly discovered that reality is often disappointing and the new emojis have little in common with those Microsoft promised to deliver.
