Mozilla presently has a dedicated version of Firefox browser specifically targeted at the Microsoft Store on Windows 11, and today, the company presented the initial update with this version.

Firefox 94.0.2 therefore comes with an improvement for Windows 11 users, as it resolves a bug causing the browser to hold when certain assistive technology was used.

Apart from that, this is just a minor release, and the small version number increase obviously points in this regard.

Firefox in the Microsoft Store

Mozilla launched Firefox in the Microsoft Store earlier this month, with the company praising Microsoft for the improvements it designed to the shop experience.

Following a debut of Windows 11, which will come with a substantially refined Microsoft Store, the software giant also allows browsers that are published here to use their very own engines. In other words, browsers that are published in the Microsoft Store don't need to use the native Windows engine but use their own, and this means fewer changes are needed on the app's side.

Mozilla applauded the change, explaining the Microsoft Store is definitely heading in the right direction.

"Until recently, Microsoft's store policies required that all browsers use the engine that Microsoft had built into their platform which meant i was unable to ship the Firefox you know and love in the Windows Store. It was not just bad for you but bad for the net because it resulted in the net on Windows 11 would only have the characteristics Microsoft was prepared to provide. People deserve choice and we're glad it comes with an easier choice to download Firefox on Windows," Mozilla said.

"Now that Microsoft is different their policies, we're finally able to ship Firefox with our industry-leading Gecko engine within the Windows Store."

Obviously, the background is really a festive wallpaper which was developed by artist Kervin Brisseaux, with Microsoft explaining that it is abstract approach fits Windows 11 just like a glove.

"Taking inspiration from a variety of sources is really a life-style for artist Kervin Brisseaux. Brisseaux, a Haitian American creative director who lives in New York City, combines influences from his background in architecture with cues from fashion, music and other facets of popular culture into his vibrant illustration style," the organization explains.

"The light and bright aspects of the visual story Brisseaux imagined for his background track using the new color palette and softer, more approachable graphics of Windows 11. Soft floral elements and ribbons play on the operating system's modern and interesting rounded geometry, while invoking holiday gift-giving traditions."

Windows 11 now rolling out

Needless to say, this wallpaper can somewhat be utilized on Windows 10 too, but Microsoft says it better aligns using the idea Windows 11 is dependant on.

In the meantime, Windows 11 is still rolling out to users out there, as Microsoft utilizes a gradual model to ensure it detects potential bugs early. The company intends to complete the rollout by the summer of 2022.

Devices that can't be upgraded to Windows 11 can stick with Windows 10 for any bit more time, as Microsoft has promised to ship updates until October 2025, according to the original support policy. When the support period concludes, however, purchasing a new PC compatible with the latest Windows would be the only option.

The "Get Windows 10" nightmare is going to return, as Microsoft has started providing the PC Health Check app as an automatic update for many devices running Windows 10 version 2004.

Specifically, laptop computer Health Check app, that is responsible for helping determine whether your device meets what's needed to set up Windows 11, is no longer a manual download but an automatic update that is delivered via Windows Update.

Microsoft says devices running Windows 10 version 2004 and then might find laptop computer Health Check app as update KB5005463. Worth knowing, however, is the update is exclusive to Windows 10 version 2004, that is necessary to install Windows 11 to begin with anyway.

"This update installs laptop computer Health Check application onto Windows 10, version 2004 and then devices. However, we won't install PC Health Check on Windows 11 devices. PC Health Check includes diagnostics to monitor device health and troubleshooting to improve performance, all from the ease of a single dashboard," Microsoft says.

"This update will be downloaded and installed automatically from Windows Update," it adds.

Only aimed at Windows 10 version 2004 and later (not Windows 11, though)

Laptop computer Health Check app comes in handy if you're still on Windows 10 and want to determine if your device meets the system requirements for Windows 11. Probably, Microsoft is which makes it an automatic update to better determine what devices ought to be offered the Windows 11 update.

"By default, when you open laptop computer Health Check application, it will automatically install important application updates when they become available. PC Health Check users won't be able to turn off automatic updates," the organization explains.

If you're on Windows 11 or on an earlier version of Windows 10, you obviously won't see the update in Windows Update.

While all eyes are currently on Windows 11, Microsoft can also be giving the finishing touches to Windows 10 November 2021 Update, the next feature update for Windows 10.

As you probably know already, Windows 11 comes with updated system requirements which make the upgrade available just for certain eligible devices, meaning other PCs don't have any other option rather than stick with Windows 10 for a little longer.

Windows 10 will continue to receive support until October 2025, with Microsoft now giving the finishing touches to a new feature update to go live in the autumn.

Codenamed Windows 10 November 2021 Update, this era doesn't necessarily bring major new features, though it does include refinements and enhancements that you must absolutely dress in your device.

And the good news may be the release of this November 2021 Update is simply nearby, with Microsoft explaining that build 19044.1288 is very apt to be the final one that will be offered to production devices too.

Available these days for seekers

Consequently, this build can be obtained for seekers within the Release Preview channel starting today.

"We are now providing the Windows 10 November 2021 Update to all Windows Insiders in the Release Preview Channel on Windows 10 via our "seeker" experience in Windows Update," Microsoft explains.

"This means Insiders currently on Windows 10, version 21H1 (or lower) within the Release Preview Channel require to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and select to download and install Windows 10, version 21H2. Once an Insider updates their PC to Windows 10, version 21H2, they'll continue to automatically receive new servicing updates through Windows Update (the typical monthly update process)."

At this time, there's still no ETA as to when the rollout to production devices is scheduled to begin.

Windows 11 is now live with so many improvements, but however, there's still missing one small detail that many users still want and need: a battery level indicator that would display the rest of the percentage in the actual taskbar.

At this time, both Windows 10 and Windows 11 come with a battery icon in the system tray, but in both cases, they merely show a graphic of how full battery currently is. Hovering the icon reveals the remaining percentage and an estimate of methods long the device will last on battery power alone.

However, plenty of users have turned to the Feedback Hub on Windows to inquire about Microsoft to include a simple update: allow the icon to be converted to a percentage indicator, therefore making it much easier to figure out how much juice there's quit in the battery.

Third-party battery apps

Obviously, you will find third-party battery apps out there that may show additional information on the current battery level, though getting the event offered natively makes much more sense.

Some believe that by showing just the battery icon and never the particular percentage in the system tray, Microsoft embraces a method similar to Apple's, that has also stopped showing the particular percentage when the iPhone X launched in 2017.

But after the day, what Microsoft must do is most likely let users decide how they want the battery level to become shown on the taskbar.

By doing this, everyone should have the ability to enable just the visual indicator they need, though, at the first glance, the percentage should theoretically make a lot more sense for everybody given it permits us to see the current battery level without resorting to any other action.

The battle for the best (or worst) assistant on Windows seems to continue, as Samsung has recently announced that it's bringing Bixby to the new Windows 11.

Coming pre-loaded using the updated Galaxy Book, Bixby can search for files or launch apps using nothing else than a voice command.

Samsung hopes users will discover the magic of Bixby and give up on any other assistant they may have on their devices, such as Cortana, especially because it also offers SmartThings-related capabilities.

"For much more mobility together with your device, Samsung has introduced Bixby on Windows for Galaxy Book users to provide an intuitive way to communicate with your computer. Through simple voice commands, searching for files, open apps and Settings as well as control devices in your SmartThings-registered device ecosystem. Simply say "Hi Bixby" or press CTRL, Shift and B or FN and B simultaneously to activate the Bixby on Windows feature, and revel in easy installation by visiting the Microsoft store or searching for Bixby inside your Windows taskbar," Samsung said in an announcement.

Samsung Galaxy Book is prepared for Windows 11

Like the remaining PC makers out there, Samsung has prepared its Galaxy Book for Windows 11, so the update should already be available on the device if you own one.

Inside a press release shared now, Samsung explains that all the most recent technologies on the desktop can be used on Windows 11 too, including Link to Windows to pair smartphones with PCs.

"With the update, you can check your phone connectivity status, manage sound controls as well as enable 'Do Not Disturb' mode on your Galaxy Book series, all with the help of the familiar UI just like the thing is in your Galaxy smartphones and tablets for additional seamless control using your PC. Connect to Windows also includes Dark Mode for comfortable viewing experiences no matter the time," the organization says.

The Galaxy Book Pro 360 5G includes Windows 11 pre-loaded, and many other Galaxy Book models should get the upgrade to the new OS within the coming weeks.
