Microsoft quickly removed its StagingTool on Wednesday.
that Windows enthusiasts have been using for years to enable hidden Windows 11 features.
StagingTool is a command line app that lets you toggle feature IDs that enable certain unreleased parts of Windows 11. It’s particularly useful for when Microsoft uses A/B testing for features, where only a small subset of Windows Insiders will get access to a feature before Microsoft rolls it out more broadly to testers.
Windows enthusiasts always look out for new features every time Microsoft releases a new build for testing. There are hidden flags in the operating system which enable features, allowing the Windows community to see what OS additions Microsoft is experimenting with before the company has even acknowledged the new features.
Microsoft is fully aware of the community enabling these secret features. “We also recognize that some of our more technical Insiders have discovered that some features are intentionally disabled in the builds we have flighted,” acknowledged Amanda Langowski, the lead for the Windows Insider Program,Microsoft’s own StagingTool leak makes this process of enabling secret features even easier and more “official” given this is an internal tool that engineers use to test unreleased features.
