== New features and changes ==
=== Settings ===
The "Resume" feature, previously implemented in build 22635.4225, has been gradually rolled out. It's a device syncing functionality that's reminiscent of OS X Yosemite and iOS 8's Handoff capabilities and aims to create a seamless OneDrive integration between mobile phone (iOS and Android) and the Windows desktop environment. A cross-device resume notification will be shown to indicate that users can continue working on OneDrive files across devices seamlessly. This feature can be activated manually by enabling the 48433719 and 49527529 velocity staging keys.
=== Start menu ===
The new Share option in the context menu when right-clicking on a recently used files in Start menu's Recommended section for quickly sharing, previously implemented in build 22635.4445, has been gradually rolled out. It can be activated manually by enabling the 46493758 and 48433719 velocity staging keys.
=== File Explorer ===
* The ability to open desktop folders and external folder links in new tabs within an existing File Explorer window has been added, with its feature toggle under the Folder Options dialog. It's disabled by default, but can be activated manually by enabling the 48433719, 49143212 and 52081114 velocity staging keys.
* A new right-click context menu has been added to turn off or snooze the "Start backup" reminder in the address bar has been added. It's disabled by default, but can be activated manually by enabling the 47944061 and 48433719 velocity staging keys.
* Support for the text scaling across File Explorer, file open/save dialogs and the copy dialogs has been improved to now follow text size preference under Accessibility → Text Size in the Settings app. This change is disabled by default, but can be activated manually by enabling the 47274802 and 48433719 velocity staging keys.
* The performance of right-click context menu launch on cloud files has been improved.
* The consistency when displaying thumbnails for cloud files in search results within File Explorer has been improved.
=== Shell ===
Support for web search providers in Windows Search has been improved for users in the European Economic Area (EEA), including clearer provider attribution in tabs. This change is disabled by default, but can be activated manually by enabling the 54865932 velocity staging key.
=== Miscellaneous ===
* The WebAuthn Plugin Authenticator APIs has been updated to support a plugin authentication model for passkeys. This lays the foundation of the ability to choose a third-party provider as an additional choice alongside the native Windows passkey provider while maintaining the Windows Hello user experience.
* A new keyboard shortcut has been added to Magnifier for quickly toggling between the current zoom and 1× zoom. This feature is gradually rolled out, but can be activated manually by enabling the 54322778 velocity staging key.

* Fixed an issue where the File Explorer address bar was unexpectedly overlapping with content while in full-screen view.
