[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1038450, member: 52014"] Hello Windows Insiders, The Photos app in Windows 11 lets you view, organize, and share photos from your PC, OneDrive, and iCloud. Today, we begin to roll out an update to the Photos app to Insiders in the Canary and Dev Channels. This update includes a broad set of new features, improvements, and fixes based on feedback. With this update, we are introducing: [HEADING=1][B]New Slideshow Experience [/B][/HEADING] This was a top feature request we received from the community since launching the new Photos app in Windows 11 [URL='https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2022/09/21/updated-photos-app-for-windows-11-begins-rolling-out-to-windows-insiders/']last Fall[/URL].

[HEADING=1]Other Fixes and Improvements[/HEADING] [LIST] [*]Auto Enhance is now available for use without having to install the 93MB add-on. [*]When importing photos from external devices, you can now drag and drop to choose the photos you want and use the quick toggle to confirm the files that have been selected.

The app now plays the audio by default and persists user settings across videos. [*]Copying and pasting a photo from the Photos app into Outlook and Teams now inserts the image inline by default instead of adding an attachment. [*]Multi-select photos: hold down the SHIFT key while selecting photos in the gallery now selects multiple consecutive photos in a row; holding down the CTRL key selects multiple non-consecutive photos. [/LIST] To get these new features and fixes, update your Photos app to version number 2023.11050.2013.0 or higher. As always, we look forward to hearing your thoughts, so please send in your feedback.
