Microsoft is testing a new 'Suggested Actions' feature in Windows 11 Dev builds where the operating system suggests actions you can take with data you copy into the clipboard.
Today, Microsoft again began offering different builds in the 'Dev' and 'Beta' channels, with the beta channel receiving Windows 11 build 22621 and the Dev channel receiving Windows 11 build 25115.
With Windows 11 build 25115, Microsoft introduced the new 'Suggested Actions' feature, which causes an action bar to appear when you copy phone numbers, dates, or times from applications.
If you copy a date, Windows 11 prompts you to create an event in associated programs like Outlook or Calendar.
Once you select the action, Windows 11 will open the app and automatically fill in the appropriate task with the copied data.
Microsoft is asking users to provide feedback on this feature in the Feedback Hub under Desktop Environment > Suggested actions on copy.
