New Year, New Momentum: Here are three Copilot updates to get you started into 2026

on
It's a new year, so I thought I'd start the year by mentioning three features already released, or soon going to be released. One of the features improves the workflow of sharing files with comments, the other improves the application specific Copilot, and the last feature makes it easer to find the nest available timeslot for a 1:1 meeting. As with all of my other posts, timelines can shift, and the timelines in this post is as written in the Message Center at the time of posting. AI-Summary experience when sharing files. With this new feature, copilot intent to help users share files with clearer context in just a few steps. Users will get the capability to generate a concise summary of a file and include it when sharing from the File Explorer share dialog or the OneDrive activity center. This will make it easier to share the context of a file and giving the receiver a faster understanding of what a document or file contains before they open it. General Availability announced...

New Live package

I've been using the new Messenger Beta for a while, and have not been very impressed by it yet. It wasn’t bad, but there really wasn’t anything new. The layout was a bit different, and there were a few more features for you to play around with. But as the Beta has become release, they’ve cleaned up a bit. And the final release seems ok.
One of the new things I really like is the ability to lo into more than one terminal, and then remotely log you of the terminal to which you do not wish to be connected. I find this handy, as I often walk from one computer to another (in the house). And seldom remember log of (or want to).
Along with messenger, the other live products have also been updated. And the whole package has the look and feel of the new Live services online. It looks like the developers have been collaborating on this one. Way to go :)
