Google Translate is enhancing its Live Translate functionality with a new “Auto-save transcript” feature for mobile users, which will automatically save translation transcripts at the end of each session. However, when using Live Translate through connected smart glasses, transcript saving will be disabled to protect user privacy. The app's code specifies that transcript saving is disabled during glasses use to prevent unauthorized recording. Additionally, users will be able to initiate Live Translate sessions hands-free with voice commands and conclude them with a swipe on the touchpad. Google is also working on simplifying access to Live Translate settings. No timeline for the rollout of these features has been announced.

The preview update KB5120998 for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2, released on August 27, 2026, has caused issues such as erratic mouse pointer behavior and disappearing desktop backgrounds, particularly in non-English versions. Microsoft has acknowledged these problems, indicating that they stem from coding practices that fail to load certain settings correctly. Specific issues include a "black desktop background" due to desktop settings not loading and mouse customization resetting to default configurations. The problems may be related to translation issues within the registry, as registry keys have been altered post-update. Users have suggested that manually adjusting these registry keys could restore normal functionality.
