Webdesk: Microsoft is working hard to make changes to Windows 11’s default apps and the way apps can be pinned to the desktop. This is because some users have reported problems with these features.
Microsoft wrote a long blog post about this topic. Concerning app defaults, the company said, “we will soon introduce a new Settings deep link URL for applications to take their users directly to the appropriate location in Settings for the user to change their defaults”
When it comes to pinning, the company plans to “introduce a new, publicly available API that will let apps pin. Either primary or secondary tiles to the Taskbar. This API will always bring up a trusted. Windows user experience to explain what is being asked to be pinned. And to make sure the user wants the pin to happen “.
The features will be made available in the next few months. The goal is to make Windows easy to use and consistent.
