Microsoft has announced a series of updates for Windows 11 Search. Microsoft said these features are currently available to Windows Insiders in the Experimental channel and may not appear to everyone immediately due to the phased rollout. The company has also updated the ranking system for Settings search results to display more relevant options higher in the list, with additional refinements planned in future updates.
In a blog post, Microsoft said the update focuses on making Windows Search faster, more relevant and easier to use when opening apps, locating files or changing system settings. The latest update introduces fewer promotional web results, improved local search, better typo handling and additional user controls. The changes are rolling out to Windows Insiders in the Experimental channel through a phased release. The company noted that not all Insiders will receive the features immediately, as they are being delivered through a Controlled Feature Rollout. The company has asked users to share feedback through the Feedback Hub under Desktop Environment > Search as it continues refining the experience before a broader release.
