With this update, Microsoft has added the Copilot for Windows preview to the right side of the taskbar.
Copilot for Windows is Microsoft's new AI assistant that, when clicked on, opens a chat interface where you can ask questions or control basic functions in the operating system.
In addition to Copilot for Windows, Microsoft has made nineteen changes in Windows 10, with the highlighted ones listed below:

Note that this toggle is not turned on for devices that your IT department manages unless IT configures a new policy.
