Microsoft has announced the official OpenClaw Windows app, enabling AI assistants to control Windows with built-in permissions, complete system tray control, and secure container-based execution.
WSL 2 is receiving a performance improvement where each virtio device gets its own dedicated DMA (SWIOTLB) pool, eliminating contention on the virtiofs path for cross-OS file access between Windows and Linux. This change, merged in May 2026, is the latest in a series of incremental improvements to Windows/Linux file I/O performance in WSL 2.
At Microsoft Build 2026, CEO Satya Nadella put Windows front and center alongside Nvidia's new RTX Spark chips, positioning local AI compute on Windows PCs as a cost-effective alternative to cloud-based AI workloads. The partnership aims to enable powerful on-device AI agents, with RTX Spark capable of running 120-billion-parameter models locally.
Perplexity has launched a Personal Computer for Windows that lets users run AI agents across local files and apps.
