Microsoft has announced a new AI agent for Windows 11, designed to assist users in managing their system settings more intuitively. Users can ask the agent specific questions and receive step-by-step guidance or allow the agent to execute tasks directly for them. This feature is presently available to Windows 11 Insiders using specific Snapdragon-enabled PCs. Additionally, Microsoft introduced an update to the Recall feature, now allowing users to reset accumulated data and ensuring that snapshots automatically delete after 90 days, promoting user privacy.
Microsoft is introducing an AI agent in Windows 11 to help users adjust settings easily by executing actions based on user requests, though it's currently limited to Insiders.
The AI agent will assist with specific tasks such as voice controls or mouse pointer adjustments and can execute tasks with user permission, enhancing user-friendliness in Windows.
Currently, the AI tool is available only for Windows 11 Insiders using Snapdragon-powered Copilot+ PCs, with broader support for AMD and Intel expected soon.
Users will now be able to reset Microsoft’s Recall feature to clear data collected over time, with snapshots disappearing automatically after 90 days.
