Boost Productivity

Microsoft added in some key features that make Window 11 Pro standout from it’s previous operating system. One of which is Universal Search. The taskbar now utilizes a centralized search engine that you can use for everything. When you search a keyword or phrase here, it will now simultaneously dig through both your local system and the internet. The search scans through your apps, files, photos, and more while also committing to a web search for what you entered. If you look up something like a recipe, it can search both for if you’ve got it saved somewhere in your documents, or if it is published somewhere online. It’s one search bar for anything and everything.

Multitaskers can get a lot out of the Virtual Desktops functionality. It’s not uncommon for folks to use one PC for more than one purpose. You might have a computer that you use for gaming, for school work, and for a side-hustle. This new feature allows you to enable Task View which will set you up with customized desktops that are tailored for what you need you PC for at that moment. You’ll be able to have a desktop with all your shortcuts to launch your favorite games, a desktop with folders for each of your classes, and then a third for whatever it is that will suit your side gig. And you can hop between them all easily.

Windows 11 Pro also supports full integration with OneDrive. If you use more than one Windows device, it can be extremely helpful to be able to access any and all of your files from either of your systems, or even be able to pull something up on your phone. Save your work on your desktop and then pick up from where you left off on a laptop from you favorite local coffee spot. All of your preferences and settings get synchronized with your files so your can have a completely seamless experience when jumping from device to device.
