The brief

Microsoft is testing an update for the Windows 11 Copilot app that provides insights into PC hardware health and system performance. The tool is designed to identify specific processes or factors that may be causing a computer to slow down, offering users live information on their system's status.

Coverage from outlets including TechRadar, Windows Latest, and PC Gamer highlights the dual nature of this update. While the diagnostic capabilities are a central focus of reports from PCWorld, PCMag, and Digital Trends, attention is also directed toward the application's memory consumption, which is reported to reach 1GB of RAM.

Observers are tracking the testing phase of this tool to determine its impact on overall system resource allocation. Coverage does not yet specify a final release date or whether the memory requirements will be adjusted before the feature becomes available to all Windows 11 users.
