Apps Open Click to Do in Windows 11

This tutorial will show you different ways to open Click to Do on a Windows 11 Copilot+ PC.

Click to Do (preview) helps you get things done faster by identifying text and images on your screen that you can take actions with. Click to Do analyzes what's on screen and then you can choose the text or image you want to take action on.

The analysis of this screenshot is always performed locally on your device. Analysis only begins after you actively engage with Click to Do and ends when you exit Click to Do. Click to Do only identifies text and images, not the content of those text or images. It does not analyze any content in, for example, minimized applications that are not on your screen.

Content is only shared if you choose to complete an action like Search the web. You’ll notice that when Click to Do is active, your cursor is blue and white. The cursor also changes shape depending on the type of info beneath it. What you can do with the info changes based on what kind of content Click to Do detects.

References:

Click to Do is currently available in preview on Windows 11 Copilot+ PCs with Insider 24H2 builds in the Beta, Dev, and RP channels.
