However, users won't be able to see a full chat history or join group iMessage conversations.&#160;</p><p><br></p><div tabindex="-1" data-cke-widget-wrapper="1" data-cke-filter="off" class="cke_widget_wrapper cke_widget_block cke_widget_inlineimage cke_widget_wrapper_webPartInRteInlineImage cke_widget_wrapper_webPartInRteClear cke_widget_wrapper_webPartInRteAlignCenter cke_widget_wrapper_webPartInRte" data-cke-display-name="div" data-cke-widget-id="5" role="region" aria-label="Inline image in RTE.

However, some standout features of the early Windows 11 versions were&#58;</p><p><br></p><ol><li><b>Redesigned Start Menu&#58;</b> The Start Menu has been centered, and Live Tiles have been replaced with static icons. A recommended section also shows recently opened files.</li><li><b>Snap Layouts and Snap Groups&#58;</b> These features make it easier to multitask with multiple windows open at once. Snap Layouts let you organize open windows into various layouts, and Snap Groups let you switch between groups of apps that you use together.</li><li><b>Direct Integration with Microsoft Teams&#58;</b> A Teams integration on the taskbar makes it easier to connect with others directly from the desktop.</li><li><b>Virtual Desktops&#58;</b> These have been enhanced and are more customizable, allowing users to change each virtual desktop's wallpaper and settings to fit different use cases.</li><li><b>Gaming Enhancements&#58;</b> Windows 11 features auto-HDR for improved gaming visuals and DirectStorage for faster game load times, if you have the compatible hardware.</li><li><b>Windows Widgets&#58;</b> Widgets, a feature from Windows Vista, makes a return. It provides personalized news, weather, calendar, and other widgets directly on the taskbar.</li><li><b>New Microsoft Store&#58;</b> The Microsoft Store has been redesigned and opens up to more types of apps, including Android apps.</li><li><b>Performance Improvements&#58;</b> Windows 11 promises to be more efficient with system resources, leading to better performance on the same hardware.</li></ol><p>Please note that the specific features and their details may have changed since my training data was last updated in September 2021.
