- Microsoft is releasing a new update for Windows 11.
- The update introduces recommendations for apps from the Windows Store in the Start menu.
- Users can turn off the ads by going into Settings.
Get ready for ads to invade yet another place where they shouldn’t be. Microsoft is rolling out an update for Windows 11 that integrates ads right into the Start menu.
About two weeks ago, Microsoft began testing a “Recommended” section within the Start menu for Windows Insiders. This Recommended section is designed to show users suggested apps from the Windows Store. It appears Microsoft has fast-tracked this feature and is now rolling it out for everyone this week as a part of today’s KB5036980 update.
