Windows 11: The first major update is here
Windows 11 is actually still very young and has already been pushed to all PCs for a few weeks. The update is now being offered to me, although Microsoft has always said before that you can only expect it in the middle of 2022 if you don’t have a new PC. So everything is going a little faster. However, development continues and the innovations announced at the end of January are now being rolled out to everyone (Source: Windows Blog). including those Android apps you can get from the Amazon App Store in Windows 11. You can see how this works in the video above.
The only problem at the moment is that this functionality is for now intended for US users. In Germany we cannot access and install Android apps on Windows 11 PCs.

Microsoft has also attached great importance to the further development of the taskbar in Windows 11. Must More and more functions can be accessed directly:
- For example, you can now disable and re-enable the microphone in a call from the taskbar.
- In addition, certain content can be shared instantly.
