Microsoft is testing out a Windows 11 update that lets you use AI to search through your files and images directly from the Copilot app. This test is currently rolling out to Windows Insiders on Copilot Plus PCs and allows you to use more descriptive language when conducting your search.
You can currently use the Copilot app to search for a file based on its name, when it was last opened, or file type. This update takes things a step further by allowing you to describe what you’re looking for, such as “find the file with the chicken tostada recipe.” Microsoft launched AI-powered Windows search on Copilot Plus PCs earlier this year.
Microsoft is experimenting with a new Copilot home experience as well, which surfaces your recent apps, files, and conversations. If you select an app within the “get guided help” section, Copilot will automatically start a Vision session, where it scans everything on your screen and guides you through an app. You can also upload a recent photo to Copilot by selecting it from the left side of the screen and then asking the AI assistant for more information about it.
These features are rolling out across all Insider channels via the Microsoft Store.
