Like the Windows enthusiast and code tinkerer Albacore on Twitter announced that some pre-release versions of Window 11 currently have a new overview page in the settings for participating in the Windows Insider program. There you will find a list of “experimental features” that could provide access to settings that would otherwise only be available with some effort.
New ‘experimental features’ page in Windows Insider settings
It could possibly be a way officially supported by Microsoft, with which adventurous testers could get very easy access to new functions that are in an early stage of development and therefore not yet available in other ways such as through A/B testing can be tried.
Earlier more feedback for the developers
Microsoft’s development team could benefit from easier access to the experimental features because it would allow them to gather extensive feedback from testers outside the company early on. There are still no concrete entries in the list discovered by Albacore, so it remains to be seen which functions Microsoft wants to provide here for testing.
Windows 11: New graphics settings page…
…replaces the old page in Windows 10 optics
Aside from the new Insider settings page, there is also good news affecting the graphics settings page on Windows 11. If this area was one of the few places where you could feel transported back to the times of Windows 10, because practically nothing had changed in the layout since then, Microsoft is now obviously making improvements here.
The look has been modernized and the content is presented in a more compact way. Of course, the scope of the redesign is still limited here. The fact that it took so long for something to happen here is probably due, among other things, to the fact that the functionality of the graphics settings has always remained the same – Microsoft’s priorities should therefore simply have been somewhere else.
