It also provides various options like annotations, improved cropping, etc. after you capture a screenshot. These features are available in the Snip & Sketch app, but the company has announced that’s killing the latter and you won’t find the Snip & Sketch app on the system after updating to the new build.

The new Snipping Tool app will now be the default screenshot app on Windows 11 and supports the Windows + Shift + S keyboard shortcut.

Now talking about the Beta channel, the fresh build enables the Chat From Microsoft Teams feature for the users. To recall, Microsoft previously announced that it would integrate the Teams app into Windows 11 to provide a native experience, which is already available on the Dev channel builds.

The integration brings a new flyout to the Taskbar where you can access various Teams features such as texting and one-to-one audio and video calls, create and join meetings, etc.
