1. Cortana Voice commands to log out, shutdown or restart PC:

With the new build, you can use voice commands with Cortana to turn off, restart, lock, or sign-out of Windows. For some of these voice commands, such as the one for turning off your PC, Cortana may ask you for a verbal confirmation. You’ll have to respond to Cortana with a “Yes” for Cortana to complete the voice command.

Here are the commands and these will work with English as of now.

  • “Hey Cortana, restart PC.”
  • “Hey Cortana, turn off PC.”
  • “Hey Cortana, sign out.”
  • “Hey Cortana, lock PC.”

 

2. Improved Boot Up Experience:

You can now use sign-in info to apply settings after a restart or update, the advanced Windows Update feature to use your sign-in info to automatically finish setting your device after an update has been extended to regular reboots and shutdowns. When you log in and initiate a reboot or a shutdown through power options available on the Start Men, Windows will automatically setup your account after it has booted back up.

This will help you sign-in faster and will restore your applications and any other application that has registered for application restart.
