Windows 11 Build 27783 (Canary) adds shared files to the Home folder

Microsoft has released Windows 11 Build 27783 to Insiders in the Canary channel. It includes improvements made to File Explorer, Magnifier, and fixes for inbox apps and the taskbar.

Shared Content in File Explorer Home

File Explorer now gives you quick access to files that have been shared with you. If you're signed in to Windows with a Microsoft account, you'll see files that have been shared with you via email, Teams chat, and more. Enterprise users with a Microsoft Entra ID account will see not only files that have been shared with them, but also files that have been shared with others. To use this feature, simply open the File Explorer home page and click the Share tab.

In addition, the list of file types displayed in the Recent, Favorites, and Shared sections on the main Explorer page has been expanded. For example, if you recently opened or edited files in Designer, Loop, Power BI, Forms, etc., they will now be available in the Recent list.

General

This update includes a small number of improvements and fixes designed to improve the overall experience of the operating system.

Magnifier

• Added a CTRL + ALT + Minus keyboard shortcut that allows you to quickly switch between the current zoom and 1x zoom.
• In addition to the keyboard shortcut CTRL + ALT + Minus to quickly toggle between the current zoom and 1X zoom, Microsoft has also added buttons in Magnifier to reset zoom to fit to screen and reset zoom to your last/preferred magnification.
