Internet notifications, whether on a desktop or mobile device, can be a nuisance. Windows 11 uses push notifications for both native and third-party apps and websites, much like mobile devices. Almost every app in Windows 11 attempts to notify you of something, and most of the time those notifications are useless.
The Windows Security app, for instance, notifies you whenever your computer fails a security check. The same can be said for the Weather app's notifications, as well as those from any website you subscribe to in Microsoft Edge or Chrome.
The number of Windows alerts you see on a daily basis has been reduced thanks to recent changes made by Microsoft. Focus Assist, included with Windows 11, is one such feature that helps you zero in on your work by muting all those pesky app toast notifications.
The tech giant is now experimenting with a new method to cut down on unnecessary notifications so you can pay attention to the ones that matter. Preview builds of Windows 11 mention a new feature called "Smart opt-out," which will reduce unwanted notifications.
Smart opt-out isn’t AI, but it should do the trick
In Windows 11, Microsoft is developing a new method to reduce unnecessary alerts and direct users' attention to critical messages. This function is a notification that suggests turning off alerts for infrequently used apps.
A notification titled "Turn off notifications from Outlook?" with two options, "Turn off" and "Don't change," will appear after a month if you haven't interacted with Outlook notifications.
Most Windows 11 users will appreciate this update because too many notifications can be annoying. Windows 11's ability to automatically detect ignored notifications and suggest disabling them follows years of similar implementation in email filters.
Apps with which you regularly interact shouldn't have their notifications disabled by the smart opt-out feature.
Being a relatively minor update to the OS, Smart opt-out should make its way into the production channel within a few months Changes to Windows 11's setup.
Urgent notifications feature in Windows 11
Another change made to notifications in Windows 11 is that users now have more say over which notifications are prioritized. Focus Assist (Do Not Disturb) can be overridden for truly critical alerts.
Apps like Visualizer have the ability to send "Allow important notifications" to users so that they can continue to receive critical alerts from the app even when Do Not Disturb mode is activated.
In order to protect users' privacy while using full-screen apps, Microsoft has added a new control called "view notification" to its urgent notifications feature.
ChatGPT has mined its discarded data for insights as far back as September 2021. Now that it supports plugins, ChatGPT can act as a browser, visiting and scraping websites in real time. Microsoft is bringing the ChatGPT plugins that OpenAI has been developing to Windows 11.
Windows 11 will support ChatGPT add-ons via Copilot for Windows, a desktop OS that combines the features of ChatGPT and Bing AI.
Microsoft has decided to adopt the OpenAI-created plugin standard for ChatGPT, paving the way for compatibility between ChatGPT, Bing, Dynamics 365 Copilot, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Windows Copilot. In addition, Microsoft announced its plans to make Bing the default search engine in Microsoft's ChatGPT.
This change also opens the door for programmers to create additional plugins for Microsoft 365 Copilot, such as ChatGPT and Bing. Connectors for the Power Platform and Teams message expansions are also in the works for this package.

There will be significant alterations to the Windows Insider Program, as recently announced by Microsoft. That's what the industry's biggest company claimed, It promised to start beta-testing the next Windows version via a new channel called "Canary". It is clear to Windows Latest that this would set the stage for Windows 12 and beyond.
Microsoft announced in an email to select testers that anyone using Build 25000 or later would be upgraded to the Canary channel immediately. Users can rest assured that future major updates will continue to be delivered via the Dev channel.
Canary, according to Microsoft's definition, is for "very experienced" users who are willing to preview "platform changes" early in the development cycle. Microsoft warned that "The Canary can be unstable and are released with limited to no documentation" in an email I received.

This year, earlier on, According to my research, Microsoft will redesign File Explorer. According to my information, this will be the most significant update since Windows 8. Microsoft is adding drag-and-drop support to tabs, a new header menu, a recommended feed, and more to Windows 11, but the interface is not changing drastically.
I saw some internal documents and found references to them in Windows 11 preview builds, which formed the basis of our reporting. During a Windows Insider webcast, Microsoft hinted at a major'refresh' to File Explorer by saying the program would be migrated to the WinAppSDK framework in order to gain access to additional application programming interfaces (APIs).
The Build 2023 Conference will bring together Microsoft's new, updated File Explorer was recently hinted at in a teaser refresh. We were able to get our hands on a pre-release version of the new File Explorer that looks identical to the demo at the conference, but we have
