Users will have more control over features in upcoming Microsoft updates.
Figuring out how and where to find every feature in Windows can be challenging, even for advanced users. If only we had a guide that could direct us to a specific setting just by asking about it.

Microsoft is continuing to shovel AI functionality into its Notepad application, with Windows Insiders the first test subjects. The latest update makes AI features like Summarize, Write, and Rewrite available on Copilot+ PCs without requiring a subscription. Since the update, users with Copilot+ PCs will be able to dispense with the subscription requirement and choose to run local models rather than cloud-based ones. Those with non-Copilot+ PCs that want a piece of the AI action, accessed via a right-click in Notepad, will need to subscribe.
