Microsoft is testing a Windows 11 update that enables AI-driven natural-language search of files and images directly from the Copilot app. The test is rolling out to Windows Insiders on Copilot Plus PCs and supports descriptive queries such as "find the file with the chicken tostada recipe." The Copilot app previously allowed searches by name, last opened date, or file type, and the new capability expands those search options. A new Copilot home experience surfaces recent apps, files, and conversations, and a "get guided help" choice can start a Vision session to scan the screen and guide users through an app. Users can also upload recent photos to Copilot for additional information. The features are being distributed to all Insider channels via the Microsoft Store.
Microsoft is testing out a Windows 11 update that lets you use AI to search through your files and images directly from the Copilot app. This test is currently rolling out to Windows Insiders on Copilot Plus PCs and allows you to use more descriptive language when conducting your search. You can currently use the Copilot app to search for a file based on its name, when it was last opened, or file type.
If you select an app within the "get guided help" section, Copilot will automatically start a Vision session, where it scans everything on your screen and guides you through an app. You can also upload a recent photo to Copilot by selecting it from the left side of the screen and then asking the AI assistant for more information about it.
