Microsoft is working on a new variant of the Home folder, the default location of File Explorer in Windows 11. The layout of the contents is slightly reworked, with the middle Favorites section to become a tab next to the Recent section. Finally, there will be a new Shared tab.

Microsoft has released another update for the Snipping Tool, version 11.2404.39.0, which brings with it Bing's visual search feature. It allows you to quickly find similar images and objects in a screenshot by sending them to Bing. The latter will process the image without you have to upload it.
