Microsoft’s Windows 11 operating system reached nearly 5% of PCs surveyed by AdDuplex, while another version of Dev Channel was released with new features for the privileged few.
With less than a month of general availability to its credit, Windows 11 now represents 4.8% of “modern” PCs (Windows Insiders running the operating system represents 0.3%) according to the advertising platform. The figure is up from 1.3% in September, which was reserved for insiders and indicates some migration to the production version of the software.
The figure is both an indicator of Microsoft’s cautious approach to releasing its products and the limited amount of hardware that can actually run the rounded operating system.
Next month, Windows 10 version 21H2 will launch, which will be the first indicator of how many users have chosen to stick with the old faithful rather than switching to the new operating system and its hardware jumper diva. esque.
The first introduction to Windows 11 was accompanied by the release of version 22489 in the Windows Insider development channel. No, the version did not include the Windows for Android subsystem made available to US users of the supposedly more stable beta channel (although there are ways around this), but it was a reminder that not all insiders are not equal because Microsoft has rolled out a new “Your Microsoft Account” settings page to a “small subset” of loyal testers.
Since it is difficult for consumers to do anything in Windows 11 today without a Microsoft account, the page is an alternative to visiting the company’s online portals. Microsoft 365 subscription information, a user’s order history, payment details, and rewards information are available, and the company plans to make things better through its online service experience packs. (OSEP).
OSEPs differ from Windows Feature Experience Packs, which change several bits of Windows apart from operating system updates. Instead, a specific domain – your Microsoft account – is focused on … assuming you’ve been lucky enough to win the Windows Insider lottery and gain access to the new operating system.
Along with a series of fixes, the update also includes support for Designated Resolver Discovery (DDR) to allow Windows to bootstrap DNS over HTTPS (DOH) with only the IP address of a DNS resolver. . ®
