What’s New in this Build
Quick Searches Becomes International
Last month, Microsoft announced a new quick search feature available from Search Home that makes it quick and easy to find answers and results online. Today, we’d like to share that experience from EN-US to:
- Australia: English
- Canada: English and French
- China: Chinese (Simplified)
- France: French
- Germany: German
- India: English
- Italy: Italian
- Japan: Japanese
- Mexico: Spanish
- Spain: Spanish
- United Kingdom: English
- United States: English
Use the Quick Searches to find out more about the weather, current news, today’s history, new movies, and sometimes a seasonal topic or an interesting quiz. Depending on which market you are in, you will see two to four of these options.
To try one or all of these searches, click on the search box in the taskbar or click on the Windows logo + S button to open the home page. Do you need answers and results for further research? Just type in the information you need to login and you’ll get it quickly and easily.
