2019(November 2019)年11 月，微软(Microsoft)计划发布Windows 10的下一个(Windows 10)功能更新(feature update)，将其带到1909 版(version 1909)。但是，此更新不会像以前的更新那样带来重大的新功能或更改。对于2019 年 11 月(November 2019)更新(Update)，微软(Microsoft)已将重点转移到修复错误上，并且更新附带了较小的修复和改进。其中大部分与微调Windows 10的工作方式有关。以下是安装即将推出的Windows 10 2019 年 11 月(November 2019)更新(Update)时获得的内容：
1.任务栏上的日历弹出按钮(Calendar flyout)可让您创建事件
在Windows 10 November 2019 更新(Update)中，您不必打开日历(Calendar)应用来安排活动。相反，您可以通过打开任务栏上的日历(Calendar)弹出按钮来更快地创建事件。单击(Click)或点击要添加事件的日期，然后在议程的(Agenda)文本框中(text box)键入其名称。
您还可以获得设置时间和位置的选项。
2.配置你收到的通知更人性化
在Windows 10设置应用程序的(Settings)系统(System)类别中，您可以调整从 PC 上安装的应用程序获得的通知类型。在2019 年 11 月(November 2019)更新(Update)中，微软为(Microsoft)“通知横幅”("notification banners")和“操作中心("notifications in action center.")的通知”添加了两个小预览图。
这使用户更容易区分两种类型的通知，以便他们做出更好的选择。
Settings -> System -> Notifications中的发件人（应用程序）列表现在默认按向您显示通知的最新应用程序排序。在以前版本的Windows 10中，此列表按名称排序。
通知的另一个小而有用的改进是，对于每个通知，无论是作为横幅还是在操作中心(Action Center)，您都会获得一个小的设置(Settings)按钮。
单击或点击它可以关闭从该发件人（应用程序或网站）获得的所有通知，或从“设置”(Settings)应用程序直接转到该应用程序的通知控件。
此外，操作中心(Action Center)现在在其顶部区域有一个名为“管理通知”的按钮。("Manage notifications")单击(Clicking)或点击它会将您带到“设置”应用程序的(Settings)“通知和操作”("Notifications & actions")页面。
3.文件资源管理器(File Explorer)中的搜索变得更强大
文件资源管理器的(File Explorer's)搜索现在由Windows Search提供支持，就像任务栏上的搜索一样。这意味着它速度更快，并且还可以显示 OneDrive 云存储中的在线内容。
4.第三方数字助理可以从锁屏语音激活(Lock Screen)
尽管没有第三方虚拟助手可以在锁定屏幕(Lock Screen)上进行语音激活，但微软(Microsoft)已经做出了一些改变来让这种情况发生。这意味着您应该很快就能与Alexa 或 Google Assistant(Alexa or Google Assistant)之类的人交谈，即使您的 PC 已锁定。
但是，目前，您只能在Windows 10解锁时使用Alexa 。至于谷歌助手(Google Assistant)，谷歌(Google)还没有为其开发桌面版，所以你根本无法使用。但情况可能会发生变化，谷歌(Google)可能希望将其虚拟助手带到超过8 亿台运行 Windows 10 的设备上(800 million devices running Windows 10)。
5. Windows 10 可以支持处理器中更快的内核
这转化为更快的 Windows 10(faster Windows 10)，提供更高的性能。根据微软(Microsoft)的说法，他们“已经实施了一项轮换政策，在 [...] 受青睐的核心之间更公平地分配工作”("have implemented a rotation policy that distributes work more fairly among [...] favored cores")。我们知道，带有2019 年 5 月(May 2019) 更新(Update)（版本 1903(version 1903)）的 Windows 10 已经为AMD Ryzen处理器实施了这一点。但是，此功能现在已经过优化，可将使用Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0的(Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0)Intel处理器的性能提高多达 15%。
6.当您将鼠标悬停在“开始”菜单上时，(Start Menu)导航窗格会展开(navigation pane)
当您将光标移动到“开始”菜单(Start Menu)的左侧并将鼠标悬停在其上时，导航窗格(navigation pane)会自动展开，显示其选项。
大多数用户甚至不会注意到的一个小的可用性调整。
7.其他小的和引擎盖下的改进
Windows 10 版本 1909(Version 1909)（2019 年 11 月(November 2019) 更新(Update)）中的其余更改对家庭用户来说很小或无关紧要。其中许多是与制造(Many)Windows 10 PC 的计算机(concern computer)制造商有关的内部变化或事情。以下是其他新内容的列表：
- (New)新的英特尔(Intel)处理器的新调试功能
- 具有某些处理器的 PC 的一些电池寿命和电源效率改进(battery life and power efficiency improvements)
- 为ARM64设备启用Windows Defender Credential Guard
- 企业可以补充Windows 10的S 模式策略(S Mode policy)，以允许来自Microsoft Intune的传统(Microsoft Intune)桌面应用(desktop apps)
- 讲述人和其他辅助技术可以阅读和了解FN 键(FN key)在键盘上的位置以及它是锁定还是解锁
- 密钥滚动或密钥旋转改进(Key-rolling or Key-rotation improvements)应有助于防止在手动解锁受 BitLocker 保护的驱动器时意外恢复密码泄露(recovery password disclosure)
- 允许OEM(OEMs)减少墨迹延迟的修复，具体取决于其设备内的硬件
- Windows容器需要匹配的主机和容器版本(host and container version)
您对Windows 10 November 2019 更新(Update)有何看法？
尽管微软(Microsoft)在Windows 10 版本 1909(version 1909)中所做的新功能和更改都没有令人印象深刻，但仍有一些改进。这对您来说足够了吗，还是您更愿意拥有更多新功能？在结束本文之前，请告诉我们您的想法以及您是否打算在更新发布后立即安装。
What's new in Windows 10 November 2019 Update?
In November 2019, Miсrosoft has scheduled the release of the next feature update for Windows 10, brіnging it to version 1909. However, this update does not bring significant new featυres or changeѕ, like previouѕ updates. For November 2019 Updаte, Microsoft has changed its focuѕ to fixіng bugs, and the update comes with smaller fixes and improvements. Most of them are rеlatеd to fine-tυning how Windows 10 works. Here is what you get when yoυ instаll the υpcoming Windows 10 November 2019 Updаte:
1. The Calendar flyout on the taskbar lets you create events
In Windows 10 November 2019 Update, you don't have to open the Calendar app to schedule events. Instead, you can create events much faster, by opening the Calendar flyout on your taskbar. Click or tap on the date when you want to add an event, and type its name in the text box from the Agenda.
You also get options for setting the time and the location.
2. Configuring what notifications you get is more user-friendly
In the System category from the Windows 10 Settings app, you can adjust what kind of notifications you get from the apps installed on your PC. In November 2019 Update, Microsoft added two small preview images for "notification banners" and "notifications in action center."
That makes it easier for users to differentiate between the two types of notifications so that they can make better choices.
Additionally, the list of senders (apps) from the Settings -> System -> Notifications are now sorted, by default, by the most recent app that showed you notifications. In previous versions of Windows 10, this list was sorted by name.
Another small but useful improvement for notifications is that for every notification, both as a banner or in the Action Center, you get a small Settings button.
Clicking or tapping on it lets you turn off all the notifications you get from that sender (app or website) or go directly to that app's notification controls from the Settings app.
Furthermore, the Action Center now has a button called "Manage notifications" on its top area. Clicking or tapping on it takes you to the "Notifications & actions" page from the Settings app.
3. The search in File Explorer becomes more powerful
File Explorer's search is now powered by Windows Search, just like the search on the taskbar. This means that it is faster and that it can also show online content from your OneDrive cloud storage.
4. Third-party digital assistants can voice activate from the Lock Screen
Although there's no third-party virtual assistant that can yet voice activate when on the Lock Screen, Microsoft has made some changes that will let this happen. This means that you should soon be able to speak to the likes of Alexa or Google Assistant, even if your PC is locked.
For now, however, you can only use Alexa when Windows 10 is unlocked. As for Google Assistant, Google has not yet developed a desktop version for it, so you can't use it at all. But things might change, and Google might want to bring its virtual assistant to more than 800 million devices running Windows 10.
5. Windows 10 can favor the faster cores in your processor
This translates into a faster Windows 10, one that offers more performance. According to Microsoft, they "have implemented a rotation policy that distributes work more fairly among [...] favored cores". We know that Windows 10 with May 2019 Update (version 1903) already has this put into place for AMD Ryzen processors. However, this feature has now been optimized to improve the performance of Intel processors that use Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 by up to 15%.
6. The navigation pane from the Start Menu expands when you hover over it
When you move the cursor on the left side of the Start Menu and hover over it, the navigation pane automatically expands, showing its options.
A small usability tweak that most users won't even notice.
7. Other small and under the hood improvements
The rest of the changes in Windows 10 Version 1909 (November 2019 Update) are small or of little importance for home users. Many of them are under the hood changes or things that concern computer manufacturers that make Windows 10 PCs. Here's the list of what else is new:
- New debugging capabilities for newer Intel processors
- Some battery life and power efficiency improvements for PCs with certain processors
- Windows Defender Credential Guard is turned on for ARM64 devices
- Enterprises can supplement the Windows 10 in S Mode policy to allow traditional desktop apps from Microsoft Intune
- Narrator and other assistive technologies can read and learn where the FN key is located on keyboards and whether it's locked or unlocked
- Key-rolling or Key-rotation improvements that should help prevent accidental recovery password disclosure when manually unlocking a BitLocker-protected drive
- Fixes that allow OEMs to reduce inking latency depending on the hardware inside their devices
- Windows containers require matched host and container version
What is your opinion about the Windows 10 November 2019 Update?
Although none of the new features and changes made by Microsoft in Windows 10 version 1909 is impressive, there are, nonetheless, some improvements. Is that enough for you, or would you rather have more new features? Before closing this article, tell us what you think and whether you plan to install the update as soon as it gets out.
