How the basic Windows programs have remained after their redesign

Be that as it may, for the firm these applications are key elements for Windows itself, which is why it puts a good part of its efforts into improving and developing this software. So much so that in recent months many of these applications have been updated. One of the main objectives of all this is that they adapt to the new design of Windows 11 . But not only have they wanted to focus on the interface section, but at the same time they have introduced new functions.

So that you can get a more exact idea of everything that we tell you, next, we are going to see the change produced in this regard. That is to say, we are going to review the appearance that these pre- installed applications have at the moment in Windows 11 , comparing them with the one they have in Windows 10. Of course, we must take into consideration that some of the new designs are those that are arriving at the moment to insider users of the company.

Refreshed look of apps in Windows 11

We have already commented on a few occasions that one of the reasons for the new Windows 11 is the general improvement in the interface that it provides us. How could it be otherwise, this is something that directly affects the pre-installed applications in the system, as we will see below. All this to give the operating system a more modern look and adapt to current times. Next, we will see the change suffered and some of the new integrated functions, if that is the case. In the samples that we will see next, we show you the new design of Windows 11 first, followed by the current one in Windows 10.

Paint – Here the interface has been completely updated to fit the new visual design of Windows 11. We see a simplified toolbar, a new text tool and more.

Notepad – In addition to the layout, this tool improves the find and replace function and adds new features. Thus, we can undo at various levels and we will see several additional improvements in the text editor.

Photos : In this case, with the new design, Microsoft wanted the popular Photos tool to be a faster and more fluid application. We have also tried to simplify its use and improve the experience when working with our images in the new system . For example, at a functional level comes the multiple view that allows you to compare photos in the same window.

Capture tool : This is one of the oldest and most used functions of Windows that Microsoft has now wanted to improve at the interface level as well.

Media Player – The Windows Media Player has also been redesigned and optimized to improve listening and viewing of multimedia content. A very important part here is music library displays. To manage it, we find a multitude of functions that have just been integrated.

Clock Application : this element has also been redesigned by the developers of the software giant in order to better manage our time and tasks on the PC.

Calculator – Even the system calculator gets a new look in its interface to fit the new visual style. Also, it is packed with useful features to help us complete calculation-related jobs.

Sound Recorder – This app is one of the last to receive its new design. It offers us a renewed visualization for audio during recording and playback. It also includes the possibility of changing the recording device and the file format from the tool itself.
