In March, we have reported about Microsoft adding Flipgrid video support to Microsoft PowerPoint slides, and during that time it was rolled out to the Office Insiders who are in the Windows Beta Channel (Fast Ring). Now, the company is rolling out this feature to the Windows Current (Preview) Channel.

Along with this feature, Microsoft also rolls out several other features to Microsoft Office applications. If you are an Office Insider, under Windows Current (Preview) Channel, upgrade to build 14228.20044 to experience the new features as listed below.

If you are using Windows 10 version 2004 or newer, Microsoft released an emergency update (KB5004945) to address a Windows Zero-day vulnerability. This vulnerability is called as "PrintNightmare" and is being exploited by attackers to achieve local privileges and remote code execution through the Windows Print Spooler service.

All users running Windows 10 version 2004 (May 2020 Update), Windows 10 version 20H2, and Windows 10 version 21H1 must update their systems with this KB5004945 update by running Windows Update from the Settings app.

Microsoft said that Visual Studio 2019 version 16.11 will be the final version of VS2019. Recently, Microsoft released the first preview build of Visual Studio 2022, and now the company is focusing on making Visual Studio even more accessible with possible new features like whitespace rendering, focus mode, audio cues, and more.

The company started seeking feedback from developers to move beyond "good enough" to find the features and innovations that help the Visual Studio users do the most amazing things they can. Lastly, the company listed a few features they are thinking about and seeking your feedback.

If you are working in Microsoft Windows operating system, "BSOD" (Blue Screen of Death) is a very popular term. It represents an exception or a fatal system crash. There could be multiple reasons (such as a general hardware failure or a process unexpectedly terminated) behind a BSOD crash.

BSOD is there since Windows 3.0 and that was always represented in a blue background. That's why it says "Blue Screen of Death". But now in Windows 11, Microsoft is probably changing the background color to black.

If you are an Office Insider in the Windows Beta Channel (Fast Ring), Microsoft released a new preview build. The latest Microsoft Office (version 2107) Preview Build 14228.20044 adds a few new features to Microsoft Word and Microsoft Outlook client.

The latest Office preview build also adds a number of bug fixes and improvements. For the detailed list of features and improvements (changelog), continue reading further.

Along with the official announcement of Windows 11 on June 24, Microsoft released the PC Health Check app to help Windows 10 users find whether their computer is eligible to receive the next major version of Windows. This tool checks for compatibility against the minimum hardware requirements.

Initially, the app was causing confusion by showing a generic message. Later, Microsoft released an update but that too was not up to the mark. Now, Microsoft has removed the PC Health Check tool until further notice.

Microsoft announces a new AI pair programmer "GitHub Copilot" for Visual Studio Code. This will help you to write better code by suggesting the entire block of code based on Machine Learning. At this moment, it is limited to Visual Studio Code in the Technical Preview stage.

GitHub Copilot works with a broad set of frameworks and languages, but at this moment it works better for Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby and Go. To know more about the GitHub Copilot, continue reading further.
