Microsoft 365 Roadmap Weekly: Compact notifications in Teams, improvements to Copilot & more by David Uzondu It is the end of another week, which means there's a new batch of additions to the public Microsoft 365 Roadmap. Most of the additions this week were focused on the usual Microsoft products like Copilot, Edge, Teams, and Outlook. Let's start with Edge, because a change is coming to how the browser handles links from other apps, with an expected arrival in August. If you use different Edge profiles for work and personal stuff, you know the drill. Right now, your setting for a default profile takes priority. When this Edge update rolls out, an application like Teams or Outlook can recommend a profile, and Edge will prioritize that recommendation instead. An admin policy called "EdgeOpenExternalLinksWithAppSpecifiedProfile" will be available for organizations that want to control this behavior. Microsoft Teams is getting a few tweaks aimed at improving day-to-day use, spread out across this summer. Arriving next month, notifications are getting a compact mode, which shrinks them down for a more minimalist look on your screen. The ability to save messages and posts is also on the way for August. Teams will also get noise suppression for people who dial into meetings with a phone. It will automatically filter out background sounds like traffic or keyboard clatter, making calls clearer for everyone involved. This is set to roll out in September. If you spend too much time digging through old emails, an update for Outlook planned for next month should help. A new "Browse Conversation Files" feature will gather every file shared within an email thread into a single, easy-to-access view at the top of the conversation. Moving on to Copilot, the AI assistant will get one-click buttons to instantly generate FAQ or briefing pages from content in your Copilot Notebook. For managers, a new "scoped access" feature for the Copilot Dashboard will let them see adoption and usage stats just for their specific teams. Microsoft is also bringing the basic Copilot chat to its Department of Defense (DoD) customers next month, with web access turned off by default to "meet US Government requirements." -

AMD power plans are not a thing anymore. That was their poor man's attempt to influence scheduling in Windows until they got Microsoft to update the scheduler to better understand the concepts of CCDs, which are super important to getting the correct performance form Ryzen. I never really understood how a power plan could have that effect, but I do know they are no longer needed. -

I didn't measure it precisely, just clicked around a few things and noticed they mostly happened at that barely preservable amount of time, which I estimated to be around 0.25. -

'Animate controls and elements inside windows' affects the operation progress animations (e.g., when writing metadata to items) in Windows Vista; for example, this animation does not appear if that option is disabled: This little animation also does not animate in the Details Pane in Windows Explorer (or in the Welcome Center) if that option is disabled:
