Earlier today, Microsoft released a new build for Windows 11 Insiders driving the Dev Channel. New build 25217 opens the option for third-party widgets, fixes several issues in the taskbar in tablet mode, and more. Read all about the changes in this article.
Along with this, the company also released an update to the Microsoft Store and a “preview” of the new video calling options the company is introducing to Teams Chat. Microsoft calls it preview because it’s only rolling out to select users at the moment, with wider availability expected later in the coming months.
The company explains how the new Teams Chat features work:
When you open Chat from the taskbar, the focus will be on you with a preview of your own video and the different ways you can connect with your contacts. Now it’s easier than ever to immediately start a video call with those who use Microsoft Teams for personal purposes. For those not on Teams, no problem – you can easily share a call link with anyone via text or email and start the conversation directly in Chat.
