you know what really helps security? don't install anything out of the box...... give a screen and let users choose what they want installed out of the gate..... -

I'm surprised it has taken this long for this kind of partnership. -

That's a really cool design! Granted, I'm not in the market for a projector replacement, but I'd keep an eye out for that one... all I need is a spare two grand. 😆 -

Stock Windows 11 apps get a big change to improve user experience and security by Taras Buria If you have installed Windows 11 at least once, you probably know that the operating system's stock apps cannot run immediately when you get to the desktop. Some of them are not apps at all, just placeholders that, when opened, download the necessary files from the Microsoft Store. This approach helped Microsoft reduce the install media file and speed up Windows 11 installation. Now, however, Microsoft is changing that. Microsoft announced that the updated Windows Media releases of Windows 11 and Windows Server now include more recent versions of inbox applications. The company changed how this works for two reasons: security and convenience. Microsoft is improving the operating system security by eliminating potential vulnerabilities and exposures in out-of-date RTM versions of inbox applications. As for convenience, there is no longer a need to wait for the app to download its files before you can start using it. This saves bandwidth and time for the end user. Windows 11 version 24H2 now has the following 36 apps updated to the most recent versions: Alarms & Clock App Installer AV1 Video Extension AVC Encoder Extension Bing Search Calculator Camera Clipchamp Cross-Device Experience Host Get Help HEIF Image Extension HEVC Video Extension Media Player Microsoft Store Microsoft To Do Notepad Office Hub Paint Phone Link Photos Power Automate Quick Assist Raw Image Extension Snipping Tool Solitaire Collection Sound Recorder Sticky Notes Store Purchase App VP9 Video Extension Weather Web Media Extensions WebP Image Extension Windows Security Windows Web Experience Pack Xbox Game Bar Xbox Speech-to-Text Overlay On Windows Server 2025, the updated media have updated App Installer and Windows Security. If you want to get the latest Windows 11 install media, use the Media Creation Tool app from the official Windows 11 website. IT admins can get them from the Microsoft 365 admin center and the Azure Marketplace. You can read more about the updated inbox app experience in a post on the Microsoft Tech Community website. -

The great thing about it being on an open platform, is that even without official support from KDE (but that would be cool) it could easily be done by a 3rd party.
