- Windows 11 has a new advertisement for PC Game Pass in the tests
- Offers the ability to give up to five friends a free 14 -day test
- Microsoft does not seem to be renouncing with a broader impulse to obtain this type of ‘suggestions’ in its desktop operating system
Windows 11 is experiencing even more experimentation with ads, this time in the configuration application (again), since leading users with “specific” suggestions “of one type or another seems to be a habit with which Microsoft is not going to give up soon.
The new announcement, or ‘recommendation’ as Microsoft could call it, is present in the last construction of preview of Windows 11 launched in the development and beta channels, which means that it is still in tests for now.
It is an announcement that appears on the start page of the configuration application that is aimed at the Game Pass Ultimate and PC Pass subscribers. If that sounds familiar, it is because Microsoft instigated a similar advertisement in the tests last year, although that was trying to coat the people to register for the game pass itself.
He was still addressed only to the players, however, they told us at that time. The difference with this new advertising initiative is that it is aimed at those who already subscribe, and is a reference ad. The idea is to “share a free 14 -day test” with up to five friends in an effort to make them register.
As with the previous announcement for the game pass, this only appears for those who are signed on their PC on their Microsoft account.
In the blog post for the new Build 26120 preview, Microsoft also points out that the recovery function will improve in its next version for the testers. He does not say how, only that: “This important update will improve your experience. As part of this next update, its existing snapshots will be eliminated. “
The withdrawal is the search function (controversial and complicated to implement) AI-Supercarged that only applies to those who have a co-pilot+ PC (since the NPU fornida incorporated with these laptops needs with these laptops to ensure that the process works without problems).
There is an extra orderly for those who use OneDrive in which Windows 11 will present a notification on their PC that offers the opportunity to resume work in a file that was only editing on your phone. This happens if he was interacting with a file on his smartphone in the last five minutes, then later unlocks his PC, an ingenious touch.
Analysis: Boss Drum, here we are going
I know, he is probably tired of listening to ‘stopping this with the veiled advertising in the Windows 11’ drum, and I’m tired of defeating him, believe me. However, Microsoft does not seem to take into account, and would probably argue that there is some value in his last push. After all, you may want your friends in the game’s pass, and offer the ability to take a two -week testing test could be something that your friends appreciate.
Well, it is quite fair, I suppose, but what I would still like to see (and again, this is another widely used drum) is the ability to turn off all these types of recommendations such as a switch of the entire system. So, those who do not want some of their screen property to be taken for such shoves, which are in many corners of the Windows 11 interface, could simply move that change and enjoy a cleaner user interface. Meanwhile, those who felt that some of the recommendations were useful could keep them on.
They all win, right?
Anyway, it should emphasize again that this last plug for the game’s pass is only in the tests at this time, so it may not be done. Those who are not so interested in the idea can publicize their feelings through the usual feedback channels, and perhaps they will throw a vote for that announcement of the entire system (sorry, recommendation). I can dream, right?
