For instance, when there are phone numbers or future dates in text, Windows highlights them, making it easy to click and call with Phone Link, Teams or Skype, or click to schedule an appointment, adding an event in your Calendar app and including the person you were communicating with on your invite.

Taskbar Overflow and easy access to Task Manager

Taskbar gets an option to pin a larger selection of apps than space. The overflow menu allows you to view all your overflowed apps in one space. Finally, the most requested right-click to go to Task Manager has been added.
