Search is one of those places in Windows where small amounts of friction add up quickly.

Opening an app. Finding a file. Changing a setting. Getting the right result should feel clear and focused.

Excited to see these Search updates go live. The Windows Search Box is getting calmer, easier to scan, giving you more control over web and Store suggestions, and also improving how results appear across apps, settings, files, and more.

Tips for how to stop procrastinating

1.

[Jen Gentleman 🌺 @JenMsft]

When you procrastinate long enough that the problem just deals with itself and goes away

[Jen Gentleman 🌺 @JenMsft]

(and then the reverse where it gets worse 🥲)

[Jen Gentleman 🌺 @JenMsft]

@Sou1kn1ght I used to keep them in a collection but Twitter got rid of that feature 🥲

The easiest way now to see my tips is probably the list I have on reddit, although this is just a subreddit of the true number I've posted around social media over the years

You maybe know about WIN + D to minimize all your apps, but did you know about WIN + Home that minimizes all apps except the one in focus?

Both are great for clearing up clutter

[Jen Gentleman 🌺 @JenMsft]

@ArtemR Oh, nice - I'll have to add it my list

[Jen Gentleman 🌺 @JenMsft]

@CuriousBURR WIN + Down?

[Jen Gentleman 🌺 @JenMsft]

@mozzeph If enabled, yep
