Microsoft is set to introduce haptic feedback features to Windows 11, allowing the mouse or touchpad to vibrate in response to user interface actions, such as snapping windows into place. A hidden setting for this feature has been found in the latest Beta and Dev builds of Windows (build number 26220.7070), enabling users to activate haptic feedback for select UI functions and adjust vibration intensity. The settings can be accessed under Bluetooth & Devices -> Mouse in the Settings app, although they are currently non-functional. The interface includes a toggle switch for "Haptic signals" and a slider for adjusting vibration strength. While the feature is not yet operational, it is expected to enhance user experience when using the Windows Snap feature. Several Windows laptops and standalone mice already support haptic technology, making them likely candidates for this new feature. The timeline for full implementation remains uncertain. Users can access the hidden settings using the ViveTool utility, but the functionality is not yet available.
