Windows 11 Will Let You Access Contacts, Calendar and Files Directly From the Taskbar
Nov. 20, 2024While Microsoft did not share a demo of how the feature would work, it did say that it would be quite similar to the Phone Link Start menu integration that rolled out with the24H2 update. From the looks of it, Microsoft 365 Companions appear similar to the Microsoft Teams integration we saw earlier in the Windows 11 Taskbar. It’s unclear right now if third-party developers can take advantage of this feature.
Overall, it’s definitely a clever feature that would help people find files easily and should help increase productivity. Other than 365 Companions, Microsoft also announced a few things like theWindows 365 Link mini PCandWindows Resiliency Initiativeto prevent CrowdStrike-like incidents in the future.
