Microsoft rolls out Windows 11 Search with built-in actions for testers
The redesigned Search lets users change settings and launch actions rather than only find files, with access to Copilot also included. It is available to Windows Insiders on the Experimental Channel, according to Thurrott. PCMag reports that Copilot remains optional and the new search box removes Bing clutter.
