Microsoft will release five new features for Windows 11 in July, with an optional preview available in June. Key features include the ability to pause updates for up to 35 days using a calendar view, the Point-in-Time Restore (PITR) feature that automatically generates restore points for the system, and the Screen Tint feature to reduce eye strain with customizable color overlays. Improvements in Bluetooth connectivity will enhance performance, especially for AirPods and Beats Studio Pro headphones. The taskbar widgets will change to reduce distractions by not expanding on cursor hover, and notification icons will be streamlined. These features will be available through an optional update at the end of June or a mandatory update in July.

Microsoft is developing a new feature for Windows 11 called "Screen Tint," which introduces a system-wide color overlay aimed at enhancing visual comfort for users who spend extended periods in front of screens. Currently available through the Windows Insider Program, this feature allows users to adjust the visual tone across the operating system, differing from the existing "Color filters" feature that targets specific accessibility needs.
