Windows 10 — now it’s introducing Linux file access into the File Explorer. Users have been able to access Linux files since Windows 1903, but the new feature in build 19603 means you’ll be able to get easily. Open up File Explorer and you’ll see Tux, Linux’s penguin mascot, in the left-hand navigation pane. This icon will show you a view of all your distros, and selecting those will place you in the Linux root file system for that distro.

There are user clean-up recommendations in storage settings, which makes it easier to free up disk space by deleting unused files, and the introduction of Microsoft News Bar. This new customization news app sits neatly to the side of the screen and updates throughout the day.

Microsoft — is a new “What’s new” page in settings, which will advertise new features in the OS. This feature was uncovered by Windows 10 hacker Albacore, although Microsoft’s Brandon LeBlanc subsequently tweeted that it’s hidden in code because it’s not enabled for ready to be used. Undoubtedly we’ll hear more about this when it’s officially rolled out.
