Con un Windows 10 19H1 in fase avanzata di sviluppo, Microsoft ha già iniziato internamente a lavorare su un nuovo grande update (nome in codice 20H1) e proprio in queste ore ha provveduto a rilasciare la seconda build per gli utenti Insider.

Ricordiamo che Microsoft è già a lavoro su Windows 10 20H1 (previsto nella prima metà del 2020) in quanto alcune cose che saranno implementate richiedono tempi di sviluppo lunghi, per questo ha deciso di passare su Skip Ahead a questa versione di sviluppo (Microsoft inizierà invece a rilasciare le prime build di Windows 10 19H2 questa primavera, dopo che lo sviluppo di Windows 10 19H1 sarà completato).

Per quanto riguarda le modifiche apportate alla build rilasciata, Microsoft segnala l’arrivo la finalizzazione del set Emoji 12.0 e il collegamento con le parole chiave per semplificare la ricerca.

Emoji 12.0 Update

With Build 18277, Insiders got their first look at the Emoji 12.0 emoji. In early February, the set of emoji to be included with Emoji 12.0 was finalized by Unicode, and with today’s build when you press WIN+(period) or WIN+(semicolon), all of these emoji now have keywords hooked up to make them easy to search for. Try it once you install the build! Keywords include otter, sloth, waffle, ballet shoes, and more.

If you haven’t tried it already, be sure to also check out our new Kaomoji and Symbols section in the picker – makes it super easy to type things like (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞ or em dash!
