Table of contents:
With a day's delay compared to what is usual, Microsoft has announced the release for those who are part of the Development Channel of Build 20270 (FE_RELEASE ) for Windows 10 A build that brings a number of improvements that we will now review.
"It stands out on the one hand the arrival of a Cortana that improves its operation and is now more efficient, for example, when locating and opening files. But along with the Cortana enhancement comes split keyboard mode or new Advanced View checkbox in Optimize drives.These are all the news."
What's new in Windows 10 Build 20270
- You can now use Cortana on your PC to open and find files and save time moving between apps or folders to locate and open files.
- For business users who sign in to Cortana with their corporate credentials, they can now search for files saved in OneDrive For Business and SharePointalong with files stored locally on their PCs (this setting is found in Settings> Search> Search in Windows).
- Users with a Microsoft account (those ending in Outlook.com or Hotmail.com) can use Cortana to search for files stored on their PCs.
- This feature is currently available to our English-speaking users in the United States.
