Bluetooth® LE Audio enhancements for assistive hearing devices support
Windows has advanced accessibility by enabling direct pairing and audio streaming for Bluetooth® Low Energy Audio (LE Audio) supported assistive hearing devices on compatible PCs. This update introduces new capabilities for audio presets and ambient sound control, accessible directly from Settings or Quick Settings in Windows. Users can adjust their assistive hearing device settings to suit their environment, although options will vary based on the device model and configuration.
Users can also manage the volume of ambient sound their assistive hearing device capture, allowing them to focus on streamed audio or their surroundings as needed. This feature's availability also depends on the device model.
To utilize these features, both the Windows device and the assistive hearing device must support Bluetooth LE Audio. It's important to note that not all Windows 11 PCs or hearing devices with Bluetooth LE support are compatible with LE Audio. For more information on LE Audio compatibility with Windows, refer to the Windows support page. For assistive hearing device compatibility, consult the manufacturer or your audiologist.
To learn more, see Using hearing devices with your Windows PC.
The Bluetooth & devices settings page has also been enhanced to offer more functionality. Users can now view essential details for connected Bluetooth devices, such as battery life and connection status, and access audio settings for audio devices with ease. These improvements apply to hearing aids and all other devices listed on this page.
To explore these features, go to Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Devices, or use the following shortcut:
System tray & taskbar enhancements

Smart power management for your PC
Introducing energy saver, the smart solution to extend your PC's battery life and reduce energy consumption without sacrificing performance. Easily accessible via Quick Settings, energy saver can be toggled on or off to suit your needs or set to activate automatically at a certain battery percentage.
Ideal for both battery-powered and plugged-in PCs, this feature is not only optimized for laptops but also available for desktops to conserve energy continuously.
When active, a new energy saver icon appears in the system tray for desktop PCs, while battery-powered devices maintain the familiar leaf icon.
To configure energy saver, go to Settings > System > Power & Battery, or use the following shortcut:
Energy-saving brightness control for plugged-in devices
Content Adaptive Brightness Control (CABC) dims or brightens areas of a display or monitor based on the content being displayed. The goal is to strike a balance between reduced power consumption and maintaining a good visual experience, ultimately saving battery life. This feature operates on devices such as laptops and 2-in-1s that are plugged into a charger. For most users, this change will be unnoticeable and should help reduce energy consumption
You can configure CABC from Settings > System > Display, or by using the following shortcut:
Under Brightness & color use the drop-down menu with 3 options: Off, Always, and On Battery Only. For battery powered devices such as laptops and 2-in-1's, the default is On Battery Only.
Note
CABC must be enabled by the manufacturer of your device. As a result, this feature is not available on all laptop or 2-in-1 devices.
Join and share Wi-Fi networks with QR codes
Windows now supports QR code sharing for Wi-Fi networks, making it easy to share your Wi-Fi network with friends and family. You can connect to new Wi-Fi networks without manually entering network details and passwords, greatly streamlining the experience. With the new QR code sharing feature, you can:

- Share your Wi-Fi password to another device via QR code. To use, find your network in Quick Settings > Wi-Fi and select the properties
, then Show Wi-Fi network password at the top of the settings page. You can also find the password for networks you have previously used in Settings > Network & internet > Wi-Fi > Manage known networks and select a network to show the password. On another device that supports QR code connections, use the camera app to scan the QR code to connect - Share your mobile hotspot via QR code. You can quickly share your device's mobile hotspot on the Settings > Network & internet > Mobile hotspot page where the properties section now includes a QR code. Use another device that supports QR code connections to scan with the camera and connect
Enhanced privacy controls for Wi-Fi network access
|
There are new privacy settings to give you greater control over which applications can access the list of Wi-Fi networks in your vicinity, which could potentially be used to pinpoint your location. You can review and adjust app permissions by going to Settings > Privacy & security > Location. To simplify the process of sharing your location with trusted applications, we've implemented a new prompt. This prompt appears the first time an application attempts to access your location or Wi-Fi details, enabling location services and granting the app permission to use your location data. This facilitates tasks like finding directions or checking the weather without the need to delve into Settings. 
Moreover, the prompt alerts you when an application unexpectedly requests access to location services, allowing you to deny permission, if needed. If you prefer to keep your location private, you can disable Notify when apps request location in the location settings to prevent these prompts from appearing when location services are turned off. Once permission is granted, applications utilizing location or Wi-Fi data are listed under Recent activity on the Location page. Additionally, a location icon will be displayed in the taskbar while the app is active, helping you monitor when and how apps are accessing this information. |

Expanding Voice Clarity across devices
Voice Clarity, initially exclusive to Surface devices, is now available to more devices.
Voice Clarity is an innovative feature that elevates your audio experience on Windows through cutting-edge AI technology. Utilizing low complexity AI models, it effectively cancels echo, suppresses background noise, and minimizes reverberation in real-time.
This feature is conveniently enabled by default and is accessible to applications operating in Communications Signal Processing Mode, such as Phone Link and WhatsApp. Remarkably, no additional hardware is necessary to benefit from Voice Clarity, as it is compatible with both x64 and Arm64 CPUs.
Applications leveraging Communications Signal Processing Mode will automatically integrate Voice Clarity without requiring any modifications, ensuring seamless operation when OEM devices lack Communications Mode processing. This extends to PC games utilizing Communications Signal Processing Mode for online interactions, enhancing the gaming experience with clearer communication.
Sudo for Windows: elevate the Windows command-line efficiency
|
Windows now offers the sudo command, an addition that brings a familiar elevation method to the command-line interface. Configuring the sudo command is simple: open Settings > System > For developers and switch on the sudo command.

Located in the microphone properties under Settings > System > Sound, this utility enables you to record and listen to audio in both modes, providing a clear comparison of the audio processing modes available for Windows applications. This feature is particularly useful for evaluating the special audio effects included in some audio drivers for communication purposes. By toggling between modes, you can experience firsthand how your microphone's audio is captured and processed differently by communication and non-communication applications. It's a great tool for testing, but it's worth noting that it won't change your audio settings - it's just for comparison.
