Windows 11 and its Features

Windows 11 brought massive features for the almost 12 months of its existence since its release last year for the world. Back then, the releases mainly were beta and trial features that still map out the many functionalities and bugs that Microsoft had with its initial versions.

However, Microsoft is now looking at its final release build with version 2H22, which will serve as its primary software version for the Windows 11.

There are still those that experience the infamous "Blue Screen of Death" (BSOD), and it is something that most users dread as it signifies that the computer would not load its operating system on their computers. Microsoft said that it is fixing the said issue in the next release of the operating system, focusing on the said fix.

Now, Windows 11 is adding a new important feature that would help the company and its users have access to certain apps without the hassle of remembering it all and searching it via its Store. Users may browse to the apps that they own and previously installed, and from there, they may restore them on the new device.
