Employee accidentally releases Microsoft Windows 11 Notepad. Read more

The employee who is a senior product manager at Microsoft who shared a snapshot of Notepad's new tabs functionality.

Agencies
Microsoft employees were caught mistakenly publishing an image on twitter that hints at what the technology giant is up to. The tweet was quickly deleted, but not before multiple outlets took screenshots. Microsoft's private warning is even included in the graphic.

According to sources, the new leak that came out accidentally from the company's senior product manager was a Microsoft forthcoming project called “Windows 11 Notepad”. There will be a new application that will allow users to interact with tabs in a novel way.

They organize themselves on top of the program, similar to the tabs added in File Explorer, allowing the user to open many files in one window. According to Windows Central, if the feature is now under internal testing, it will most likely be included in an update in early 2023.


Moving on to the leaks, it has been reported that the stolen image depicts a snapshot of a Microsoft internal warning labeled “Confidential”, “Don't talk about features or take screenshots”.

However, it is evident that Microsoft is working on something related to tabs, but it is still in the development phase, and we must wait for the official release. It is believed that Microsoft will provide an integrated Tab interface to work on Tab management.

Concerning the leak, the photo was unintentionally posted on the senior product manager's Twitter account, and the pictures were withdrawn so that they would not proliferate.
