Microsoft is previewing a full system rollback for Windows 11 — OS, apps, files, everything — snapped back to where it was 72 hours ago. It's basically a time machine for your PC. But here's the thing: it can also roll back your security patches. Meanwhile, a single configuration change knocked Outlook off every iPhone for over 24 hours. And Microsoft flipped the switch: Copilot is now doing its thing by default, whether your governance is ready or not.

Microsoft just confirmed that AI agents — including third-party ones — are coming to the Windows 11 taskbar. The controls to manage them exist the default hands control to the user. Plus, there's a new way to do a Hybrid Entra Join without waiting for Entra Connect to sync, but it needs Windows Server 2025 domain controllers in every domain. And Windows Recall is back in the security headlines — a researcher has proven he can silently drain your entire Recall history after a single Windows Hello tap. Microsoft says that's fine.
