Microsoft has lifted a compatibility hold that blocked upgrades to Windows 11 23H2 after resolving an issue that caused desktop icons to move erratically when using Windows Copilot on multi-monitor systems. This known issue impacts home users running Windows 10 22H2, Windows 11 22H2, and Windows 11 23H2. It doesn't affect managed devices because Copilot for Windows has yet to roll out on enterprise systems.

Microsoft says that tests of a controversial new Windows 11 feature that automatically opens the AI-powered Copilot assistant after Windows starts are limited to systems with 27-inch displays. For now, the option also requires enrolling in the company's Windows Insider program since the change is currently being tested in the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 23615, released last Thursday in the Dev Channel.

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.

Microsoft has published a new update for Windows 11 versions 23H2 and 22H2 to fix security vulnerabilities and improve Copilot. Starting with the December patch, you can open Copilot in Windows across multiple displays or where you want Copilot in Windows to appear.

Microsoft has released the KB5032288 November 2023 Windows 11 preview update with improvements for the Copilot AI assistant and almost a dozen bug fixes. Windows Copilot started rolling out to Windows 11 22H2 devices in September and now is enabled by default on systems running Windows 11 23H2. After installing the KB5032288 preview update, the company says the AI-powered digital assistant will be available across multiple displays and will also show up as a thumbnail preview in the Alt+Tab dialog.

Microsoft has started rolling out its Copilot AI assistant to Windows 10 with the KB5032278 November 2023 non-security preview update for systems running Windows 10, version 22H2. Two weeks ago, the company introduced Copilot to Windows 10 Insiders with eligible non-managed systems running Windows 10 22H2 Home and Pro editions. The AI assistant was first introduced in September, initially available on Windows 11 22H2 devices, and now enabled by default on Windows 11 23H2 devices.
