Microsoft has not yet revealed its contents, But the company has several unreleased features in the beta testing pipeline that might be included. One big new item is Windows Copilot, which takes the GPT generative AI technology used in Bing and Microsoft (Office) 365 and gives users an operating system-level personal assistant. It is available for testing now. Another feature to look out for is the next version of File Explorer: it includes tabs, favorites, and a modern look. Meanwhile, gamers may enjoy native RGB lighting settings coming to Windows 11 to make unwanted hardware-specific software unnecessary.

The new Windows 11 23H2 upgrade will work by downloading on systems running the current version, 22H2, early on but will remain dormant until Microsoft is ready to release, following which a small enablement package known as an eKB will act like a master switch that enables new features and publishes a version number The new operating system.

This change might mean that new Windows is coming in 2024, so get a taste of what might be Windows 11’s last major feature update — and hopefully, it’ll have those 3D shaded emojis.
