Según leemos en WCCF Tech parece que, aunque Windows 10 llegó al estado definitivo con la gran actualización 21H2, Microsoft no lo ha dejado totalmente de lado y sigue desarrollando algunas nuevas funciones para el mismo como un rediseño del cuadro de búsquedas, algo que ya está presente en Windows 11 y que llegará, también, a Windows 10 en una actualización futura que está ahora mismo en el canal Release Preview y que estará disponible pronto para los usuarios de Windows 10. Esto significaría que Microsoft en el futuro no está cerrando la puerta a añadir nuevas funciones a su S.O. más usado pero eso no lo han dicho los de Redmond.
Se trata de la KB5011543 que nos llevará a disponer de la Build 19044.1618 de Windows 10 21H2. Parece que la gran novedad será que el cuadro de búsqueda será dinámico a lo largo del día, se mostrarán momentos y recomendaciones, así como imágenes y tendencias de lo más visto en la red sobre el tema buscado, etc.. Dicho cuadro de búsqueda cambiará si nuestro equipo pertenece a una organización y es que entonces nos mostrará contenido relacionado con lo buscado y nuestra propia empresa.
Todas estas novedades se podrán personalizar o incluso desactivar si no son de nuestro agrado y queremos seguir con el actual cuadro de búsquedas.
Un vídeo resumen lo podemos encontrar a continuación:
Por otro lado esta futura actualización tiene un buen listado de cambios y correcciones que os mostramos a continuación, eso sí, en inglés:
