Windows users, mark your calendars for September or October! The next significant update for Windows 11, known as the 24H2 update, is expected to roll out during this time, and it may come with a built-in system optimizing app called 'PC Manager.'

PC Manager aims to improve your computer's performance by suggesting ways to free up memory, checking for viruses, and reducing ads and pop-ups. However, the app has recently faced criticism for suggesting users switch their default search engine to Bing and for potentially injecting affiliate links to Microsoft products.

Currently, PC Manager is a default inclusion in Windows 11 for Chinese users and is available for download in the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 and Windows 11 users in the US. It's uncertain whether Microsoft will make the app a standard part of the operating system in other regions.

Microsoft has received some backlash for adding not-so-helpful features to PC Manager, and we can only hope they will reconsider and improve the app for the benefit of all Windows users.

Windows 11 Users, Prepare for Potential Changes

With the forthcoming 24H2 update for Windows 11, users should be aware of the possibility of new features and changes. PC Manager, while offering helpful system optimization options, may also introduce elements that are more beneficial to Microsoft than to users. Stay informed and be prepared to adjust your settings accordingly.

Get Ready for the Next Windows 11 Upgrade

As we wait for the official rollout of the 24H2 update, Windows users should keep an eye on any announcements from Microsoft regarding PC Manager and other new features. A little bit of preparation can go a long way in ensuring a smooth transition to the updated operating system.
