With the official push of Windows 10 20H2, Microsoft began to focus on the development of new features . In the recently launched Windows Insider, a few new features are particularly eye-catching, so let’s take a look.
1. The desktop wallpaper is automatically updated
“Lock Screen Focus” is a system beautification feature in the current version of Win10, which can automatically change a lock screen wallpaper every day. However, this feature is currently limited to the lock screen, and desktop wallpapers cannot be enjoyed. It is reported that Microsoft will extend the “Spotlight” function to desktop wallpapers in the next version, which is also derived from the exquisite Microsoft Bing gallery. Microsoft has already launched a “Bing Desktop” applet before. The addition of this feature will save us the trouble of installing software.

2. Edge browser increases price comparison
Since Chromium Edge was launched, its popularity has soared. Many other browser users are now turning to Edge. Some media broke the news that Microsoft will add a price comparison function to the Chromium version of Edge, which can automatically display other dealers’ quotations and coupons when users make online shopping. However, this feature is currently limited to US distributors, which is still far away for domestic users.

3. New webpage scrolling screenshot
The screenshot function of Win10 has always been well received, but there is a problem that cannot be solved, which is the screenshot of a long web page. The good news is that Microsoft plans to add scrolling screenshots of web pages in future versions and integrate them directly into the Edge browser. When using, just drag down with the mouse to complete the screenshot operation, and it also supports quick sharing of screenshots.

4. Game dedicated task manager
Everyone has used the task manager, but do you know the task manager designed for games? This feature is a sub-module in Win10 Xbox Game Bar that allows players to directly close the application without leaving the game. The entire interface is similar to the current version of the task manager, including CPU, memory, hard disk, GPU, but also with color identification, green means normal, red means the program has a greater impact on the system.

5. Keyboard integrated dictation module
Win+H is the dictation shortcut of Win10, but because it is too hidden, not many people know it. There is news that Microsoft is preparing to transform this feature. Unlike the current version, the new version integrates voice dictation directly into the lower left corner of the soft keyboard, similar to the current mobile phone input method. In addition, the new version allows direct use of voice to control the opening and closing of this function.
The new version of Edge will support “Pin” web pages to the start menu or taskbar
Write at the end
According to Microsoft’s update logic, spring is often the time when new features are launched, and autumn is a large-scale bug correction. It can be seen that Win10 20H2 is only a small-scale update, and the next 2021 version is more interesting. So have these new features attracted you? Let’s wait and see!
