7 Helpful Features Rolled Out in the Fall Windows 11 Update

Zachary Kitchen

In a world where technology constantly evolves, Microsoft stands at the forefront. It continues to pioneer innovations. Innovations that transform how we interact with our digital universe.

The fall Windows 11 update is a testament to Microsoft’s commitment to excellence. It’s more than just an upgrade. It’s a leap into the future of computing. Microsoft touts it as “The most personal Windows 11 experience.”

Let’s explore some of the great features that make this update so significant.

Microsoft Copilot: Your Intelligent Partner in Creativity

A standout feature of the fall Windows 11 update is Microsoft Copilot. This AI-driven marvel is like your personal PC assistant.

Need help summarizing a web page? Want to change to dark mode, but forgot how? Looking for a quick custom image for a social media post? Microsoft Copilot can do all that and more.

Copilot is seamlessly integrated into Windows 11. It offers real-time suggestions and turns ideas into reality with remarkable ease. Ask it what you need, and the AI engine gets to work.

Updated Apps (Paint, Snipping Tool, Clipchamp & More)

Have you ever wished that Windows’ Snipping Tool could do more? This update grants that wish. The Snipping Tool is just one of many to get an AI upgrade.

Look for new capabilities in Paint, Clipchamp, and Photos. Get a unique image from inputting a text prompt and style. The Cocreator tool in Paint makes it easy to jumpstart your creativity. It will generate the image, then you can edit it in the same app.

Microsoft Clipchamp is one of the easiest video creator tools out there. You can now just drag in your assets and clips. Then, click to have the AI engine work its magic to create a video for you.

The new Clipchamp Auto Compose feature can:

  • Recommend scenes
  • Make edits
  • Create a narrative based on your inputs

Easy Data Migration with Windows Backup

When you buy a new computer, moving data can be a pain. It can take hours to move your “pc life” between devices. And there’s always the risk you’ll miss something.

The new Windows Backup feature makes moving between computers easier. You can choose backup options and folders. When ready to move, it’s a simple process. You can restore the new PC from another backed-up PC.

Microsoft Edge: A Faster and More Secure Browsing Experience

Microsoft Edge received significant enhancements. These focus on speed, responsiveness, and security. The Edge Secure Network feature offers more gigabytes. Microsoft increased user storage from 1GB to 5GB. This function encrypts your internet connection to secure data.

Edge Secure Network has many features of a VPN. This is great for extra online security. It’s also helpful for companies trying to prevent breaches from clicks on phishing links.

Save Energy & Battery Power

A feature called Adaptive Dimming is another enhancement of this update. Your screen slowly dims if you’re no longer paying attention. This has the dual benefit of saving energy and helping you refocus.

PC sensors power this feature as well as two others. So, it’s going to be more common with newer computers.

The other two features that use sensors are:

  • Wake on Approach
  • Lock on Leave

A More Personal Windows 11 Experience

Beyond the technical innovations, this update brings more. Including a more personal touch to the user experience. Tailored to individual preferences, Windows 11 becomes an extension of the user’s identity.

This includes things like:

  • Personalized themes
  • Custom widgets
  • Intelligent assistants

Every interaction feels curated and intuitive. It makes for a truly personalized operating system.

Other Cool Enhancements

There’s a lot of excitement packed into Windows 11. Here are a few more new features you can explore.

  • Copilot in Microsoft Shopping: Find what you need fast when shopping online. Bing will provide tailored recommendations based on your requests.
  • Content Credentials: Add an invisible digital watermark to your AI-generated images in Bing. Cryptographic methods help you tag your work.
  • Bing Chat Enterprise Updates: Boost work creativity and enjoy multimodal visual search. Find information using only images.
  • DALL.E 3 Model from Open AI: Use the Image Creator in Bing and you’ll likely be impressed. It’s had an upgrade and uses the DALL.E 3 model to render images from text prompts.

When Our Server Crashed, I Expected Downtime For Days, They Had Us Back in Hours

As a small law firm, we needed reliable IT support that wouldn’t break the budget—but still delivered at the highest level. Digital Crisis gave us exactly that.
 
They helped us modernize our systems, move to the cloud, and streamline how we work. Now our team can securely access everything we need from anywhere—and we’ve never been more efficient.
 
When our server went down unexpectedly, they had us fully operational again within three hours. No panic. No delays. Just fast, professional support when we needed it most.
 
With Digital Crisis, we feel like we have a world-class IT department—without the overhead.

We Knew Something Had to Change

As a managing partner of our firm, I needed a technology partner who understood urgency—and our old IT company just didn’t get it. Every time we had an issue, we were forced to submit a ticket just to speak with someone. No one ever answered the phone. Everything felt like a battle, and we were stuck in a long-term contract with no flexibility.

 

When I called Digital Crisis, they picked up immediately. No ticket. No runaround. Just answers. Within minutes, they had already started helping us.

 

Looking back, I wish we had made the switch sooner. I didn’t need to be a tech expert—I just needed to make one good decision for my team. Now our systems are secure, we actually get support when we need it, and I don’t have to worry about IT holding us back.

 

If you’re tired of being ignored by your IT guy, do what I did. Take back control. Call Digital Crisis.

I Couldn’t Afford IT Headaches When Starting My Firm

As the Managing Partner of a newly established law firm, I can confidently say that the seamlessness of our start-up is due in large part to the exceptional IT support provided by Zach and the team at Digital Crisis. From day one, they have been more than just a service provider—they've been true partners in our success.

Zach and his team have an incredible ability to anticipate our needs before we even voice them. Their proactive approach, deep expertise, and commitment to keeping our systems secure and efficient have given us the confidence to focus fully on building our practice.

Having reliable IT support is critical in the legal field, where security and uptime are non-negotiable. Thanks to Digital Crisis, we’ve had both—plus the peace of mind that comes from knowing we’re in capable hands. We couldn’t ask for a better tech partner.

They’re a Valuable Member of Our Team

Zach is great at explaining to us about our IT in plain-speak, rather than “geek-speak.” I genuinely feel like hiring Digital Crisis was the best decision I’ve made for my firm. If you want an IT expert who charges reasonable rates and is not just an IT guy, but a valuable member of your team, call Zach.

My Firm Runs Like a Well-Oiled Machine

I’ve worked with Zach for over 15 years. Digital Crisis takes their time to understand my practice and doesn’t try to shove a cookie-cutter system down our throat. When Digital Crisis first came in, they took the time to understand our firm and helped streamline and modernize our processes.

My Firm’s Efficiency DOUBLED Overnight

I thought my firm was doing just fine with my previous IT setup- boy, was I wrong! Digital Crisis came in Updated Equipment and Technology. I wish I had used them ten years earlier when I first met Zach. You will be sold immediately by their knowledge, patience, and willingness to help.

Digital Crisis Saves Us Thousands Every Year

We used to enter data quarterly that would easily take an average of two weeks each quarter to enter. Then, when Digital Crisis came in, they fully automated our process, taking minutes instead of weeks to process the same data, not only faster but more accurately, removing room for human error. The new system gets things done faster and saves us thousands every year in labor alone!

We Make Money FASTER Because of Digital Crisis

In 2010, my business had an old DOS-based server from 1995 that ran our proprietary software, which crashed. If it weren’t for Zach, we’d have to start completely over! Not only was Digital Crisis able to restore all our data, but they were also able to migrate us to a modern system which allowed us to get paid faster and work remotely.

They Rescued My Practice

On a Friday, my practice had to be moved immediately without any notice. Digital Crisis not only managed to come out and get our IT up and running, but they had our phones and internet up and running by Monday morning, and we didn’t lose a single day of business!  I can’t recommend Zach and his team enough.

I Never Lost a Day of Work During the Pandemic

Zach truly understands my firm’s needs and always provides valuable tips and tools to make my firm run more efficiently. For example, when the COVID pandemic hit in 2020, I didn’t lose a single day of work since Digital Crisis had me set up on their cloud system, and I could remote in from anywhere.
