Windows 10 New Update! What is new?

New features in recent Windows updates will help you manage your time, increase security, and get more creative with Windows 10. With this update, it'll be easier to get things done on your PC and across your other devices, including syncing to Android phones (7.0 or later).

Go passwordless with Microsoft accounts on your device:


Keep your device even more secure by removing passwords when signing in to Windows with Microsoft accounts on your device. Go to Start  > Settings  > Accounts  > Sign-in options , and then turn on Require Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts.

Have Magnifier read text aloud:


Magnifier, the screen-magnifying feature that comes with Windows 10, can also read text aloud. To use it, turn on Magnifier by pressing the Windows logo key‌   + Plus sign (+), select Read from here, then use your mouse pointer to select where you’d like to begin.

Make your text cursor easier to find:


The text cursor indicator adds a splash of color to your text cursor, making it easier to find in a sea of text. To turn it on and change its size and color, go to  Start   > Settings   > Ease of Access   > Text cursor. 

Create events quickly:


Add an event or reminder to your calendar right from the taskbar. On the taskbar, select the date and time, then enter your details in the text box that says Add an event or reminder.

Get to notification settings from the taskbar:


To choose where notifications show up and how to sort them, select Notifications  > Manage notifications on the taskbar.

Give your apps a sleek new look:


Make your apps stand out by switching to Light or Dark mode. Select Start  > Settings  > Personalization  > Colors . Under Choose your color, select either Light or Dark mode. 

Add emoji from your keyboard:


Express yourself however and wherever you want. Press the Windows logo key  + period (.) to open an emoji panel. Use kaomojis to create faces with text, and symbols—like punctuation and currency—to make a statement.

Bring the Microsoft experience to your Android phone:


Open the Google Play Store app on your Android phone, type Microsoft Launcher in the search box, and then install it. Once Microsoft Launcher is installed, you can get beautiful Bing wallpapers that refresh daily, sync your Office docs and calendar, and more.

Make your pointer easier to see:


If you're having trouble spotting your pointer on your screen, make it bigger or change the color. Select Start  > Settings  > Ease of Access  > Cursor & pointer.

Make things on your screen larger:


To make just the text on your screen bigger, select Start  > Settings  > Ease of Access  > Display  , then adjust the slider under Make text bigger. To make everything bigger, choose an option from the drop-down menu under Make everything bigger.


Use Snip & Sketch to capture, mark up, and share images:


Screen sketch is now called Snip & Sketch. Open Snip & Sketch to take a snip of what’s on your screen or to mark up and share a previous image. In the search box on the taskbar, type Snip & Sketch, then select Snip & Sketch from the list of results to open the app.

To quickly take a snip, press the Windows logo key+Shift+S. You'll see your screen darken and your cursor displayed as a cross. Choose a point at the edge of the area you want to copy and left-click the cursor. Move your cursor to highlight the area you want to capture. The area you capture will appear on your screen.

The image you snipped is saved to your clipboard, ready for pasting into an email or document. If you want to edit the image, select the notification that appears after you’ve made your snip. Snip & Sketch offers options to save, copy, or share and includes a pen, highlighter, and an eraser, all with variable line widths. 

Pause updates until a convenient time:


One of my favorite feature.To temporarily delay updates for your device, select Start  > Settings  > Update & Security  > Windows Update  , and then select Pause updates. Once you reach the pause limit, you'll need to get the latest updates before you can pause again.

Let Microsoft keep your PC healthy:


Keep your device running smoothly with recommended troubleshooting suggestions that find and fix issues on your device. To view recommended troubleshooters, select Start  > Settings  > Update & Security   > Troubleshoot  .

Google Camera 7.5 changes the file naming scheme and stops saving portrait photos in separate folders

Google Camera 7.5, the latest version of the camera app for Google Pixel smartphones, had earlier been spotted throwing around hints for the Pixel 4a 5G  and Pixel 5, alongside hints for features such as audio zoom, expanded social share, and more camera modes. The same version of the app also brings around some more changes, notably a change in the file naming scheme for photos and finally stopping the behavior for saving portrait photos in a separate folder. In Google Camera 7.5, portrait photos will no longer be saved into their own folders, which is a move that is likely to be appreciated by everyone. On older versions, any portrait pics that you clicked would be saved inside individual folders within the DCIM/Camera directory, which was frankly a terrible implementation. Using most gallery solutions would mean that you had to venture into each individual folder to check out the images, plus your photos would not show up chronologically, and deleting the pictures would still le...
