YouTube Brings In-App Sharing & Messaging To The U.S.

YouTube is expanding its in-app video sharing and messaging feature to key markets including the U.S., U.K., Brazil, Singapore, and various U.S. territories. Users aged 18 and older can share videos and engage in discussions without leaving the app. The messaging system operates through an invitation process, allowing users to send invite links that expire after seven days. Once connected, users can share long-form videos, Shorts, and live streams, and have the ability to unsend messages, block, or report others. This feature is not available for Brand Accounts and is governed by YouTube’s Community Guidelines, with content not used for ad targeting. The original messaging feature was discontinued in 2019 but was reintroduced as a pilot in Ireland and Poland in November 2025, later expanding to 31 European countries. YouTube plans to further expand this feature, though specific markets and timelines are not yet disclosed.

YouTube Wants Your Video Conversations To Stay On YouTube

YouTube is introducing a feature that allows users to share videos, Shorts, and live streams while engaging in conversations directly on the platform, aiming to retain social interactions within its ecosystem. This functionality integrates messaging across YouTube's primary content formats, enhancing user interaction and reducing the need to navigate away from the platform for discussions. YouTube is not attempting to become a full-fledged messaging app but rather to facilitate conversations that arise from video content. A moderation note indicates awareness of safety concerns related to integrating messaging on a public platform, and the limited rollout is designed to assess effectiveness while managing moderation challenges. This development may signal a shift in video-driven conversations for brands and creators, encouraging content that fosters sharing within the app. If successful, this feature could transform sharing from an exit point into a catalyst for further engagement, enriching the user experience.

Windows’ June update finally makes your sluggish PC feel snappier

Microsoft has rolled out the "Low Latency Profile" feature for Windows 11 as part of the June update KB5094126, available for all Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 PCs. This feature enhances responsiveness during tasks like launching applications and accessing the Start menu by temporarily increasing CPU clock speed to its maximum for 1 to 3 seconds during actions that cause lag. Users must install update KB5094126 and check for a build number of 26200.8655 for 25H2 or 26100.8655 for 24H2 to access the feature. The activation of the Low Latency Profile may not be immediately visible, and the HWiNFO app can be used to monitor CPU activity for confirmation of its activation.

Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

Microsoft has released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, which includes customizable Start menus, enhanced search functionalities, and a refined Taskbar. A significant upgrade is the rebranding of the Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print, aimed at modernizing and securing the printing process. Microsoft is phasing out support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update, transitioning to the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. Starting July 2026, new printer installations on eligible devices will default to Windows Ready Print, though users can choose between Windows Ready Print and the traditional OEM process. This setting can be adjusted through the printer preferences in Settings and modified via Group Policy. Users can also enable Windows protected print mode to default to Windows Ready Print.

Microsoft to Allow Users to Disable Web Search in Windows 11

Microsoft is introducing new controls for Windows 11 that will allow users to disable web search and remove Microsoft Store suggestions from their search results. The update, demonstrated on June 2, 2026, will include two toggles in the Windows 11 Settings app under Privacy and Security → Search Permissions. The first toggle will turn off Bing-powered web results in the taskbar search and Start menu, while the second will control the appearance of Microsoft Store app suggestions. This change replaces the previous method of disabling web search, which required complex registry edits. The new settings aim to enhance user experience by prioritizing local search results and addressing privacy concerns, as user queries will no longer be transmitted to Microsoft’s servers. The toggles are expected to roll out through the Windows Insider program before becoming available to all users.
