Windows 11 August 2025 Update: Massive AI Features Arrive in Version 24H2

Microsoft’s August 2025 update for Windows 11 (version 24H2) is now rolling out, and it’s packed with next-gen artificial intelligence features that redefine how users interact with their PCs. From smart assistants in Settings to powerful AI writing tools, this update represents the most AI-driven version of Windows yet.

Here’s a full breakdown of the new features, enhancements, and what they mean for everyday users.

 Key AI Features in Windows 11 August 2025 Update

1. Windows Recall (Expanded in the EEA)

Windows Recall, the much-debated AI memory feature, now includes:

• ✅ Full data export capabilities
• ✅ Reset options for captured content
• 🔐 Compliance adjustments for the European Economic Area (EEA)

This tool uses on-device AI to track user activity—like documents opened or websites visited—allowing you to “recall” past actions by searching with natural language.

For users in the EU and UK, Microsoft has added stricter privacy controls in line with GDPR and regional regulations.

2. “Click to Do” — AI Productivity Suite

One of the most exciting additions is “Click to Do,” a suite of generative AI tools designed to streamline work:

• ✍️ AI-assisted writing and summarization across Microsoft Word and Edge
• 📖 Reading comprehension and content previews
• 💬 Seamless Microsoft Teams integration with smart action recommendations

This puts AI tools just one click away—built right into the native workflow of Windows users.

3. AI Agent in the Settings App

Windows 11 now includes a conversational AI assistant embedded in the Settings panel—available first on Copilot+ PCs:

• 🗣️ Ask natural-language questions like “How do I turn off location sharing?”
• ⚙️ Navigate complex settings without digging through menus
• 🔍 Integrated with system diagnostics, performance monitoring, and device recovery

Think of it as a smarter, context-aware version of Microsoft Copilot tailored for OS-level support.
