Microsoft has released preview build 14367 of Windows 10 to members of the Insider Program. Those who have opted in should receive the update imminently across PC and mobile devices.

The latest version of the operating system expands handwriting recognition support for different languages. A whopping 23 languages are being added, including Indonesian, Malay, and for the first time, African tongues like Swahili and Zulu.

There’s also a new shortcut that should make it easier for Insider Program members to give feedback. Using the Windows key + F combination opens up the Feedback Hub and attaches a screenshot of whatever’s on your display at the time, replacing the former shortcut of Windows key + Shift + ?, which will now be discontinued. Users on mobile devices can use the volume down and power buttons in conjunction to head straight to the Feedback Hub.

Build 14367 also marks the official debut of the clean install tool that was uncovered on Thursday. The utility provides an easy way to perform a fresh installation of Windows 10; it can be accessed from the Settings app.

Meanwhile, there’s a host of smaller tweaks and fixes included with the updates. These include improvements to cross-device notifications via Cortana, which should be quicker to appear and generally more reliable.

Microsoft has also announced its intention to remove a feature from Windows 10 Mobile alongside the impending Anniversary Update. Owing to a lack of usage, development of Kids Corner is coming to an end, and the option will no longer be available as of the update this July.

Insider Program members in the Fast Ring should receive the update soon, although there were some reported delays as a result of the development team testing out new builds internally.

Full patch notes for build 14367 can be found in this post on the Windows Blog.

I hope Microsoft adds this rumored AI feature to Windows 11
A Windows 11 device sits on a table.

From smart speakers to ChatGPT and Bing Chat, AI has slowly crept into our lives, but not all instances of AI are as prominent as those three examples. Sometimes, the effect is subtle, but still pretty nice. It appears that Microsoft is working on one such instance of AI-enhanced tech that could make using Windows 11 just a little more pleasant. We're talking about AI-powered live wallpapers, and they might be coming soon.

First spotted by Windows Latest, Microsoft is readying an AI-powered desktop that could make the whole user experience feel a lot more interactive. The idea is to adjust depth perception and make some backgrounds appear more "alive" when moving your cursor or the entire device. The wallpaper might move or shift, depending on what you're doing on the desktop.

Microsoft is developing improved controls for Windows 11 users, aiming to change how the operating system manages high refresh rate monitors. The latest Windows 11 preview build includes the ability to automatically adjust the refresh rate on multiple monitors based on what content is being displayed.

“We have improved refresh rate logic to allow different refresh rates on different monitors, depending on the refresh rate for each monitor and content shown on the screen. This will help most with refresh rate-dependent multitasking, like playing a game and watching a video at the same time,” said Microsoft’s Amanda Langowski and Brandon LeBlanc in a blog post announcing the new preview build.
