It was only ten days ago that we were speaking about the release of Microsoft’s new Insider build 22572 for the Dev Channel.
- If you were wondering what KB5011543 brought to the table, we have some great news for you.Windows 10 users have been finally introduced to the long-expected Search Highlights feature.However, this new functionality will roll out gradually so don’t panic if you don’t have it just yet.Check out what other changes have been implemented to Windows 10 through this new update.
Among the many changes it brought, users seemed to get the most excited about the Search Highlights feature for the Start menu.
Search Highlights will present notable and interesting moments such as holidays, anniversaries, and other educational moments in time both globally and in your region.
Now, you will surely be pleased to know that this feature has come to Windows 10 users through the latest optional update from the tech giant (KB5011543).
Search Highlights will be rolled out gradually
This update contains the same features announced last week for the Release Preview, but it bumps the supported Windows 10 build number slightly to 19044.1620 (21H2), 19043.1620 (21H1), and 19042.1620 (20H2).
Enterprise users will have a slightly different experience, as the Search Highlights will display contacts, files, and updates from their organization, instead of fetching results from the web.
Some PC issues are hard to tackle, especially when it comes to corrupted repositories or missing Windows files. If you are having troubles fixing an error, your system may be partially broken.

Click on the Search bar in the taskbar, and you should see the new interface with the Search Highlights. You can click on a result to open the corresponding result in your web browser.
The official announcement mentions that it is being rolled out gradually to users in phases in the coming weeks and that it could take months for it to be available for all users.
While some people may find Search Highlights useful, it is possible that users who don’t care about web results in the first place are going to be more annoyed by the feature.
