Microsoft started rolling out the launcher at the top of the Windows 10 Settings app

During this period of time, we have made a lot of reports on the top bar of the Windows 10 settings application, but before this Microsoft only conducted a small-scale test for some users.

According to the latest news, Microsoft has completed the test of this feature and is ready to push it to all users. When the user opens the settings, he will see the advertisement column at the top.

Of course, Microsoft’s name for this top bar is a recommended banner. In fact, this is a way that Microsoft uses to promote the Microsoft Edge browser to users.

After users install the cumulative update to be released tomorrow, they can see this so-called recommended banner. At that time, they may see some full-screen pop-up promotional content.

The banner at the top of the Settings application is essentially an advertising space. When the user clicks on start, a full-screen pop-up window will first ask whether the user needs a browser, etc.

If the user has installed the Microsoft Edge browser, it is recommended that the user set it as the default browser, if it has been set as the default, it can be ignored.

In addition to the browser, Microsoft will also use full-screen pop-ups here to promote Microsoft 365 Personal or Home Edition, of course, users can also ignore it directly.

Microsoft said that these measures are best practices to help users get a complete Windows 10 experience. Fortunately, these theoretically will not take the initiative to carry out full-screen pop-ups.

When the user sees it, click the skip button to close the banner. When the banner will appear next time, it is completely controlled by Microsoft and the user cannot close it.
