Microsoft is now testing support for the USB4 Version 2.0 specification in Windows 11, enabling transfer speeds of up to 80 Gbps over USB Type-C cables.
USB 80Gbps is now being tested in the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 23615, which was released today in the Dev Channel.
Besides USB4 Gen4 support, Redmond is also testing a new Windows Copilot option to allow Windows Insiders to configure to automatically open on login if their systems have a widescreen display.
"We are trying out opening Copilot automatically when Windows starts on widescreen devices with some Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel. This can be managed via Settings > Personalization > Copilot," Microsoft said.
"In Microsoft Edge, you can invoke the Windows share window by clicking the share icon at the top right in the toolbar and choosing the Windows share options," Microsoft said.
Microsoft starts testing new Windows 11 Energy Saver feature.
