In many ways, Windows 11 is a great-looking operating system, but the new design overhaul comes at the expense of functionality. Out of the box, there are a lot of complaints about Windows 11, especially if you're a power user and you rely on features like taskbar drag and drop or folder previews in File Explorer. Microsoft recently released Windows 11 Build 22557 to testers on the Dev Channel, and one of the biggest changes is the ability to drag and drop files like images or text onto an app in the taskbar to open the file in the highlighted app . For example, you can drag and drop an image in Outlook by simply dragging a statement onto the Outlook icon. In addition to taskbar improvements, Microsoft is also restoring support for "Folder Preview" in File Explorer. Folder preview was a handy feature that was available in all previous versions of Windows, and it was a feature that many people used every day, so the fact that it was removed by Windows 11 angered many users. Starting with Windows 11 Build 22557, you can now preview a folder's files in Explorer without opening the folder. If you want to try out an upcoming feature of Windows 11, install a preview build in a virtual machine and navigate to the directory in File Explorer that contains the folder that contains the media, such as images or documents, that you want to preview. As shown in the image above, if the media content has been indexed by Windows, you will immediately see the folder preview thumbnail. File Explorer's Quick Access view now lets you pin files File Explorer's Quick Access view now lets you pin files. Previously, Microsoft allowed users to pin folders, but this update extends support to include files. Microsoft has created a new section above recent files to highlight pinned files. If your Microsoft account is connected to the device, File Explorer will also sync pinned and recent files from Office.com. This includes OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. It will sync in real time, so if you pin or unpin an Office.com file in Quick Access, it will be reflected in Office.com and Office apps as well. A new way to share content to Outlook Microsoft is testing a feature called Outlook Desktop Integration that allows you to share local files to Outlook and compose emails directly from File Explorer. The email compose box and attachments will appear in Explorer's share window, so you can easily send emails from Explorer. Currently, File Explorer's Outlook integration only works with local files and cannot share files stored in OneDrive folders. Additionally, Windows 11’s sharing window includes support for contacts from Microsoft 365, and lists automatically sync, making it easier to share files through Outlook for Explorer. OneDrive integration in File Explorer Microsoft makes it easier to manage OneDrive directly from File Explorer. As shown in the image below, you can browse your OneDrive folders, view sync status, and quota usage in the Explorer window. Storage now shows up in File Explorer without even opening the OneDrive folder. These changes are currently only available to testers. The public will get new File Explorer features in Windows 11 Sun Valley 2, which will start rolling out this fall.
