- Windows Insider Preview build introduces a new toast notification design.
- The new design makes it easy to copy 2FA codes from emails with a single click.
- This update also hides new lighting settings to control RGB accessories.
To make the two-factor authentication (2FA) procedure easier, Microsoft is making minor adjustments to the toast notification in Windows 11.
Typically, the system will ask you to finish the authentication process by sending a code to your email account (or other email) when you check in to your email or another service account. The procedure is simple, but it involves additional steps because you need to open the email, locate and copy the code, and then paste it into the sign-in screen.
The authentication code will now show up in the notice with the opportunity to copy it to the clipboard after Windows 11 build 25295 detects that you have received an email containing it. This minor adjustment will facilitate the completion of the account verification process that you are attempting to access.
Microsoft plans to offer a new feature that will enable users to control the RGB lighting on computers from the Settings app without the need for third-party software, in addition to the upgrade for toast notifications. With these steps, you can enable the feature, which is now hidden.
Depending on the lighting accessories, you may adjust brightness, effects, and color on the new Lighting settings page, which is located in the Personalization area. You can even choose to match the color of the Windows 11 system.
While there are numerous options for controlling your computer’s RGB lighting (including those from Corsair, Logitech, Asus, Razer, and other open-source companies), some of them require proprietary software and prevent you from controlling other accessory brands.
