nteresting goings on with #Winget updating #PowerToys, after the latter team releases two versions in quick succession. I'm guessing this will be an easy fix, but something's puzzling right now. #WindowsInsiders #MVP https://www.edtittel.com/blog/interesting-v0-80-x-powertoys-puzzle.html

Just for grins I got Copilot to script me some PowerShell to count MS-supplied device drivers. The results surprised me: they may surprise you! #WindowsInsiders #WIMVP https://www.edtittel.com/blog/counting-ms-2006-drivers.html

In #winget a DevHome upgrade fails because of an SDK issue. Things get more mysterious but the #MSStore rides to the rescue. #WindowsInsiders #WIMVP https://www.edtittel.com/blog/devhome-update-hiccup-deciphered.html#Windows11

The latest version of Notepad now introduces a new automatic saving feature when you close Notepad.

Interesting. Looks like #WindowsInsiders in the Dev and Beta channels can now preview new features in #MicrosoftEdge without having to download the separate Edge Insider apps.

From what I can tell, it looks like you'll only be previewing new features and not whole new builds of the browser, but regardless, this is a great addition!

Shower thought: if Germanium is just the platform name for Windows 11 ver 24H2, and Win12 doubles down even more on being internet-connected/AI-focussed, its codename truly has the potential to live up to the "arse"nic name 🤪

The updated widgets board experience with the option to disable the MSN news feed has finally rolled out to my device! Honestly, I think this is a much nicer experience.

Okay, the new weather card on the lock screen from today's dev build is really neat.
