With the update, Bing has a new Back-to-School hub that collects products relevant to returning students and shows the best possible deals. The products shown on the hub range from basic school supplies to more expensive items, such as laptops, computer monitors, and even graphics cards. The new hub organizes the products via categories to show where you can get the best possible deals. Combined with established features like coupons and cashback rebates on Microsoft Edge, the new Bing strives to enhance the purchasing experience....

Microsoft’s Changes to Bing’s Review Results The change was spotted on LocalU. Now, when you use Bing to bring up a business’ details, the search engine uses Facebook as its primary way of judging if you should go or not. The search engine hasn’t entirely dropped support for Yelp. However, Bing’s former primary source has been demoted to the “Reviews from the web” section underneath the main information. So, why did Microsoft make this move?...

Pin Pages To Taskbar: With Edge in Windows 10 Creators Update, it is now easy to pin websites to the taskbar....

What’s Happening With Microsoft Edge’s Sleeping Tabs? This feature isn’t particularly news to us. We first saw this feature surface during Microsoft’s initial sleeping tabs test back in September 2020. Microsoft’s proposal for this new feature was simple. When a user didn’t look at a tab for a certain period of time, Microsoft Edge would “put it to sleep” so that it didn’t take up the computer’s resources. While the feature sounded promising, not much else could be said about it except for some in-house preliminary statistics....

It supports the Microsoft Office 365 series of apps, including Word, Powerpoint, and OneDrive....

A key new feature of Visual Studio 2019 is the integration of an AI-assisted software, IntelliCode, developed to maximise efficiency and limit potential human error....

What Is Microsoft Holiday Hits? Microsoft Holiday Hits is the “greatest selection of holiday songs EVER assembled.” At least, that’s what it would be if it were real. The official Microsoft tweet revealing the spoof album simultaneously raised the holiday hopes and dashed them within a moment. Who wouldn’t want to hear such Microsoft classics as “Joy to the Word, spellcheck is done” and “Please mute ye merry gentlemen, you’re talking far too loud, we’re trying to have a meeting, you’re yelling in a crowd?...

Xbox Design Lab Reopens for Custom Controller Design Prior to the Xbox Series X and Series S launch in November 2020, Microsoft closed the Xbox Design Lab for new orders. The shutdown was always temporary, but it has taken since late October to resume the custom Xbox controller design service. The Xbox Design Lab enables anyone to create a custom color scheme for their new Xbox Series X controller. There are 18 colors to choose from, including Lightning Yellow, Shock Blue, and Pulse Red, while you can customize the body, back, D-pad, bumpers, triggers, thumbsticks, ABXY, View, Menu, and Share buttons....

How: Microsoft pushed the update automatically, but you may need to force quit the apps (even if you’ve just downloaded them) to see the changes. Why Do You Care: Creating and editing Office documents on your iPhone just got a little less complex. Tapping the Home button to the left will show you a list of recent documents for the app you’re using. The New button (the middle Plus icon) will give you a screen like the ones above, with app-specific templates to create new documents....

For those who enjoy a lighter and thinner tablet, the Microsoft Surface 2 was a great choice. Now, we’ve been spoiled for choice with the release of Microsoft Surface Pro 2. So, should you choose the Microsoft Surface 2 over the Microsoft Surface Pro 2, or vice versa? While Surface 2 relies majorly on Windows Store for its app, desktop apps are complete no-no. Both the tablets are product oriented, but Surface Pro brings legacy Window apps to the users....

Conocido simplemente como “el nuevo Surface Pro X”, el dispositivo añade un nuevo procesador y la opción de color Platinium en un intento de convertirse en el PC siempre encendido y siempre conectado. Con el Pro 8 y el Laptop 4 que se espera que se retrasen hasta el 2021, fue posiblemente el punto culminante de la última caída de hardware de Microsoft. Aquí está todo lo que necesitas saber....

The laptops will come in a range of different prices, and you can pick and choose what you want on your system....

That wasn’t necessarily apparent from the underwhelming original, but 2021’s second generation was a big step forward. Upgrades included a move to the then-flagship Snapdragon 888 chip, 5G connectivity, more RAM, bigger displays and a triple rear cameras. However, it’s retained that unique dual-screen design. Well over a year after it launched, this remains the most recent Surface Duo that Microsoft has made. Here’s everything you need to know....

Microsoft defied rumours of a staggered release schedule, dropping a host of new Surface products on 6 May. In addition to the Surface Go 2, we also saw the Surface Book 3, Surface Headphones 2 and Surface Earbuds. The company may have brought the release date forward as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, which meant it was impossible to hold an in-person event....

The first thing to make clear is that this isn’t the long rumoured Surface mini or the dual-screen device codenamed Andromeda. This is closest to the Surface 3 which came with an Intel Atom processor and a cheaper price tag compared to the Pro versions. How much does the Surface Go cost? The new Surface Go is even cheaper than the Surface 3, $100 cheaper in fact at £379/ $399....

More than two weeks after the serious ‘Follina’ vulnerability was first discovered, Microsoft fixed it and several other bugs. We’d still highly recommend you install it, but it hasn’t been plain sailing for those who already have. The Wi-Fi hotspot feature has been completely broken, while ARM-based machines (such as the Surface Pro X) may have problems signing in to the likes of Outlook, Microsoft Teams and some VPNs. In response, Microsoft has released two emergency security patches – KB5016138 for Windows 11 and KB5016139 for Windows 10....
