Meta has started rolling out a preview version of its Facebook widget. It allows you to control your Facebook notifications right from the Windows 11 dashboard. This is Meta's second widget for Windows after its Messenger widget, which it released a while ago. Insiders on the Canary and Beta channels will also get access to the Facebook widget.

To access the new Facebook widget, you can download the Facebook app from the Microsoft Store or update it to the latest version of the app if you already have it. Then open the widget board and click the "+" button in the upper right corner to access the widget selector and add the Facebook widget to your board.

Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 23451 (Dev Channel) also brings a more modernized details pane for the File Explorer app. The new information pane displays more contextual information about the file you've selected, including its thumbnail, sharing status, file activity, related files, and more.
