Build 26212 Improvements

Link on Windows Share, Generate QR & Other Features

The first Windows Share experience on Windows 11 was a bit different. In which very less share facilities were available. But Microsoft has released many new stock updates for both Windows 10 and Windows 11 in the last few months. Now taking the same forward, update 26212 has been offered. In which, if the user wishes, he will get the facility to generate QR code to link URLs and cloud files directly using the Windows Share window.

This Windows Share feature will provide seamless sharing of all types of web pages and files. For this, if you want to generate a QR code, then for this you will have to choose the option of Windows Share. With this, your shared file or data will be accessible quickly and easily.

Along with this, it will also be important to see in this update that whenever Windows used to share. If by mistake we clicked outside the window, that window used to close. Due to this users needed to open Windows Share again and again. But now after this, you can click outside without closing the share window. If you want to close the share window, you can use the close button in the top right corner.

Apart from all this, if you want, while using the Gmail account, Microsoft will provide the facility to send emails directly through the Windows Share window. This makes it easier for us to share content with a Gmail account. Due to this, there will be no need to switch applications again and again.

Copilot's Old Animation Updates Will Continue

This update will continue to support CoPilot's functionality and taskbar icon animations. Microsoft brings new features and improvements to Copilot based on user feedback.
