BREAKING: Microsoft confirms it’ll make Windows 11 a calmer OS with fewer upsells or ads.
The company also says it will raise the bar on Windows 11 quality in 2026 and focus on performance over unwanted Copilot integrations.
Microsoft says it'll improve driver quality, make apps stable, improve connections with Bluetooth accessories, reduce USB-related crashes and connection loss, and enable improved printer discoverability and connections.
"The work is underway," says Microsoft.
"You can expect to see tangible progress that you’ll be able to feel as you preview builds from us throughout the rest of the year."
