Microsoft is testing a new design for Windows 11’s Shut down dialog

Windows 11 launched last year and if you’ve already downloaded and installed it, you’re probably aware of the fact that the operating system is far from finished. Unlike Windows 7 and older versions, Windows 11 still feels like a work in progress. The company is continuing to add new features and design consistency is still missing.

Microsoft recently redesigned the ‘Open with’ dialog from the Windows 8-era and the tech giant is now exploring new design ideas for the Shut down dialog. For those unaware, we’re talking about the Shut down dialog that appears on the desktop when you press Alt + F4.

As you can see in the below screenshot, the new design removes the Windows logo and ‘This PC’ icon from the Shut down dialog. The redesigned Shut down dialog promises a simplified look and makes use of the system colour accent. Additionally, there is another experimental design that applies Mica to the title bar of the dialog.

This redesigned Shut down dialog was quietly added to Windows 11 with Build 25174.

We’re expecting another update to the Shut down dialog that will bring WinUI design material to the buttons and dropdown menu.

While some of us may not like dramatic design makeovers, in many ways, this is for the best. The Windows 10 that many of us use today remains supported and is likely to stay stable as Microsoft is busy with the development of Windows 11. If you prefer the new design direction and a couple of new features, Windows 11 is for you.

It is also worth noting that Windows 10 that we use today is different from the Windows 10 that launched in 2015. In the past few years, Microsoft has added some useful new features to the operating system.

The best free automation tools for Windows

When your job involves working on a computer, repetitive actions can be the bane of your existence. They're not only tedious, but also (even worse) time consuming. Fortunately, in case you're forced to execute the exact same actions over and over again, you can create macros (scripts) that will automatically do them for you. Let's say, for example, that every day you have to open your downloads folder; to do this, you would normally have to click on 'Start', then on 'Documents' and from there finally click on 'Downloads'. Using a macro, you could simply run a certain file from your desktop or (even better) use a key combination, and the download folder will be automatically opened. (Of course, this was very simplistic, but you can use macro scripts to perform much more complicated tasks.) Here you will find a list with some of the best automation tools on the market. These applications won't only help you improve your productivity with macr...

How to Deal With Your Drivers Issues

For those of you who are really new to this, drivers are software that make the connection between your hardware (motherboard, graphic cards, sound card, printer, etc) and your operating system. Each hardware component has its own driver (which works on specific Windows versions), and if you don't have the correct driver installed, the respective device will either run incorrectly or not run at all. So, after you've reinstalled Windows (or installed it for the first time), you are going to need drivers to make your computer fully operational. The first and easiest solution is to install them is by using the CDs that came along with your hardware. If that's no longer possible because the respective CD is no longer available or the drivers on it aren't compatible with your Windows version, you will have to  improvise . My favorite solution in this situation is to use a combination of two programs: 3DP Net and 3DP Chip. Both of them are completely free and require ...
