Google is updating the Gemini app with a new interface and Gemini 3 Pro support. Google AI Ultra subscribers can try the Gemini Agent, which can complete actions within the Google ecosystem and on the web. The app is gaining two generative interfaces that create custom views in real-time based on user requests. Gemini 3 enhances multimodal understanding and agentic coding capabilities. The Gemini Agent is an experimental tool that simplifies multi-step tasks and integrates with Google Workspace applications. It can manage calendar events, set reminders, and organize Gmail inboxes, while prioritizing user control for significant changes. The app introduces visual layouts and dynamic views for customizable user engagement.

Google has rebranded Cameyo, the software virtualization company it acquired last year, as “Cameyo by Google” to enhance the usability of Windows applications on ChromeOS. Cameyo's platform allows users to stream individual Windows applications directly to their devices via a web app, integrating seamlessly with the native file system of Chromebooks. This solution targets enterprise users, enabling them to run legacy applications alongside modern web apps without the need for a separate virtual desktop environment. Cameyo also supports organizations in transitioning to ChromeOS while maintaining access to essential Windows applications, addressing the "app gap" that has hindered enterprise adoption of ChromeOS.

Meta has confirmed that the Messenger desktop applications for Windows and macOS will cease operations on December 15, 2025. Users will be redirected to the Facebook website for messaging after this date. Notifications about the shutdown will be sent within the app starting 60 days prior to the closure, after which the app will be inaccessible. Users are encouraged to uninstall the app and can continue using Messenger via the web version or the Facebook Desktop App for Windows. To safeguard correspondence history, users should activate the “secure storage” feature and set a PIN code. This decision aligns with Meta's strategy to embrace web technologies, transitioning to a Progressive Web App (PWA) version in September 2024. Some users have expressed dissatisfaction with this decision, preferring the desktop application over the browser interface.

Microsoft has acknowledged that the Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 updates are causing disruptions for IIS websites due to a conflict in the Windows HTTP stack driver (HTTP.sys), resulting in “ERRCONNECTIONRESET” errors for localhost loopbacks and IIS connections. The issue affects devices with updates released on or after September 29, including KB5066835 and KB5065789, impacting server-side applications reliant on HTTP.sys and leading to failed IIS websites or blank pages. The problem may vary based on internet connectivity, system timing, or update installation order. Microsoft is working on a permanent solution and has advised IT administrators to implement a known issue rollback (KIR) through Group Policy to restore stability. Additionally, Microsoft has lifted an upgrade block on Windows 11 24H2 devices that was due to a conflict with a third-party driver.

Meta is discontinuing its standalone Messenger desktop applications for Windows and Mac, with the shutdown scheduled for December 15. Users will be redirected to the Facebook website to access Messenger after this date. In-app notifications will inform users about the transition, and Mac users will have a 60-day grace period to continue using the app post-notification. Meta encourages users to delete the application, as it will no longer be usable after the grace period. For Windows users, the Facebook desktop application is recommended as a substitute, and both platforms can use the web interface on Facebook. To preserve chat history, Meta advises users to enable secure storage and set up a Personal Identification Number (PIN).
