Microsoft test adapting Windows 10 set-up to use

Microsoft is testing a feature to tailor Windows 10’s setup to the purpose users have with a device. The feature is included in an Insiders build of a new version of the operating system. For the new feature, Microsoft asks what users want to use a device for, with options such as “ gaming, ” “ schoolwork, ” and “ business, ” Microsoft writes. The set-up then adjusts the options shown to that choice, but nothing is set differently than normal after that, according to the company. Microsoft doesn’t mention exactly what is different. Microsoft is starting to develop the feature, so it’s not finished yet. Some of the testers will see the function when resetting the device, Microsoft said. This is build 20231 in the Dev Channel of the Insiders Program. The company has been testing features frequently and early in recent years through its Insiders program. Many of those features will come later in the stable version of Windows 10, for which two major updates appear annually.
