Microsoft has debuted a new update for 'Windows Insiders' that includes a Windows subscription manager. Windows Insiders are individuals who sign up to receive optional early-release versions of Windows 11, with the caveat that these early versions may be unstable or have bugs. One of the most notable features from the current insider build of Windows 11 is a subscription manager built right into the settings application.
This manager synchronizes the user's Microsoft-owned subscriptions, such as Office, Xbox Game Pass, or Xbox Live, right into the settings application in Windows 11. Previously, in order to manage these subscriptions, users would have to navigate to the respective website and log in, which can be an extensive process if people do not remember the various passwords they have set across these services.
