Google Wallet rolling out big homepage, search redesign

Google Wallet is undergoing a redesign of its Android app to enhance user experience, particularly in managing passes. The app's homepage layout has been changed, with passes now displayed in pairs and featuring themed backgrounds. Users can reorder passes by dragging them and have more control over which passes appear on the homepage. The floating action button has been replaced with a centered split-button, directing users to "Add to Wallet" and a new page for searching transactions and loyalty cards. This section is divided into Transactions and Passes for easy access. The redesigned Google Wallet is being rolled out across devices, and users should update to the latest versions of Google Wallet and Google Play services (stable 26.15.33) to access the new features.

Microsoft is finally letting you skip updates during Windows 11 setup

Microsoft is introducing changes to the Windows 11 Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE) by allowing users to click “Update Later” during setup to bypass post-installation updates. This aims to streamline the installation process and enable quicker access to desktops. The feature is currently being rolled out, but the timeline for widespread availability is uncertain. Users should be cautious, as skipping updates may expose their PCs to security vulnerabilities until they manually install the updates.

Microsoft has been trying to fix Windows 11’s annoying white flash bug in File Explorer for over 2 years: Has it finally done it?

Microsoft has addressed the white flash issue in File Explorer when using dark mode in the latest Release Preview build of Windows 11. This problem, which has persisted for over two years despite previous claims of fixes, has now been resolved with the latest changelog stating that the white flash is removed when launching File Explorer in dark mode if set to launch to This PC or when resizing the details pane. The complexity of File Explorer, which combines modern and legacy UI frameworks, has contributed to these graphical glitches. Although the white flash issue has been fixed, some areas, like File Properties, still do not support dark mode, but improvements are planned for future updates.

I just found out the creator of Windows Task Manager accidentally left his phone number inside the app

Dave Plummer, the creator of the original Task Manager at Microsoft in the 1990s, encountered an issue where CPU utilization readings occasionally exceeded 100%, which he suspected was a bug in the kernel. Despite being a user interface designer and facing skepticism from the kernel team, he implemented 'asserts' in the code to diagnose the problem. One assertion specified that CPU usage should not exceed 100%, and he embedded his name and home phone number in the code for anyone who might encounter the issue. No one ever contacted him about the bug, and it remained unresolved until the kernel developers identified and fixed it later.
