Microsoft released theKB5035953patch to the Windows 11 Beta Channel, and it has a lot of new and documented features, such asthe new position of the Widgets boardin the left-aligned Windows 11 taskbar andthe updated Windows Sharethat allows users to generate QR codes for URLs and cloud file links.

However, the patch also has some interesting undocumented ones: the first one is the ability to move files in Windows 11by dragging and dropping themin the File Explorer address bar.

Another one, discovered by the same insider,@PhantomOfEarth, is an updated Copilot that shows up every time users copy texts or images.

An updated variant of the Copilot suggestions menu for copied text/images is hidden in the latest Beta update. Unlike the previous one, this variant opens automatically instead of on hover and has opening/closing animations.pic.twitter.com/Uz6b1YKB2e

If previously. Copilot would appear only if users hovered over it, now it will automatically appear whenever someone is performing a copy action of text or image.

Fortunately, though, Windows 11 users will be able to turn this feature off from the Copilot in Windows Settings page, as the@PhantomOfEarthstates:

However, the feature will be turned on by default, meaning that the Redmond-based tech giant might want Windows 11 users to use Copilot as much as possible.

This feature is not documented, meaning the Redmond-based tech giant didn’t intend to release it with the patch. However, it will most likely be released in the next insider builds.

Microsoft is also constantly updating its AI tool. For instance, earlier today, the company announced thatMicrosoft 365 users can create Copilot promptsusing their work content.

Copilot will also be coming tothe Microsoft Photos app, a Windows native application, in the following weeks, where it will assist Windows users in creating a slideshow, searching for favorite images, and changing the desktop’s background.
