Google has launched the first Beta of Android 17 for Pixel devices, skipping the traditional Developer Preview. The Android Beta program is available for Pixel devices starting from the Pixel 6 to the Pixel Tablet, allowing users to enroll via the Android Beta website for an Over-The-Air update. Android 17 focuses on app scalability across various devices and includes performance improvements with a new garbage collection method and camera functionality upgrades. The full release timeline is flexible, expected several months after a Platform Stability milestone in March, likely after the Google I/O event in May and possibly coinciding with the Pixel 11 launch in August. Users can enroll in the Beta through the Android Beta website, but may experience instability, and those without a Pixel can use the Emulator in Android Studio.

Since the rollout of Windows 11, users have noted the absence of a movable taskbar, which was possible in Windows 10. Microsoft has not indicated plans to reintroduce this feature, as they believe it may not serve the majority of users. The taskbar in Windows 11 was developed from scratch without the code necessary for repositioning it. Microsoft’s data-driven approach prioritizes features that benefit the largest user base, leading to a focus on essential functionalities rather than customization options. Technical challenges arise from moving the taskbar, as it would require significant adjustments to app layouts and designs. Microsoft has instead restored drag-and-drop support on the taskbar and optimized it for smaller screens and touch devices. Recent updates have introduced AI-driven features, raising concerns about the feasibility of a movable taskbar as the focus shifts toward integrating AI rather than user customization.

The Windows Start menu will undergo its first significant redesign since 2021, with the rollout scheduled for November 11, coinciding with the Patch Tuesday update. The update introduces a scrollable Start menu and places the "All apps" list on the main screen. The redesigned menu offers two user interface options: a categories view, which organizes applications by type and prioritizes frequently used apps, and a grid view that maintains a classic A to Z order. The menu is adaptive, adjusting to fit screen sizes, with larger displays showing more columns of pinned apps and recommendations. Users can disable the Recommended feed through Settings. While the new Start menu improves usability, it may occupy excessive screen space on lower resolution PCs, and there is a desire for the ability to create custom categories. The rollout will begin with the November 2025 Patch Tuesday and is part of Build 26200.7019 and 26100.7019 or newer, but it will not be activated by default.

During an interview, Jacobson discussed the challenges of adapting the game for various screen sizes, specifically mentioning the Steam Deck. He highlighted the need to accommodate screens ranging from 9 inches to 60 inches. Although Jacobson's mention of the Steam Deck does not guarantee compatibility, it is the first explicit reference to the handheld in relation to FM 26, generating interest among fans regarding its potential support.
