controls at the top of key pages, so changing settings is faster and easier.

GET THINGS DONE LIKE A PRO WITH SNAP GROUPS

USE AN EXTERNAL CAMERA AS THE DEFAULT FOR WINDOWS HELLO



For those using a Windows-Hello-compatible external camera with a PC that
already has a built-in camera, Windows automatically uses that external camera
as the default for Windows Hello.


OPEN DOCUMENTS FASTER YET SECURELY



We’ve brought improvements to Windows Defender Application Guard so that your
documents open faster, while still checking for possible security concerns.
Windows Defender Application Guard helps prevent untrusted Word, PowerPoint, and
Excel files from accessing your company’s trusted resources.
