Microsoft is working on an update for Windows 10 which will solve a long-standing problem with one of the operating system's most fundamental features: copy and paste.

Microsoft is also reportedly working on a brand new panel for the menu that will allow GIFs and emoji to be inserted into chat applications more Instead of searching for media online, users will be able to streamline the process by selecting material through a search function in the menu.
These features are still in development, but should be rolled out for all Windows 10 users as part of a public release in the near future.

As both recent and future updates attest, Microsoft is eager to derive every ounce of value from the functionality, which users experienced people will applaud in particular.
