Microsoft tests new Windows 11 controller shortcut to access recently launched games

There might be a more straightforward way to launch recently-played games on your Windows 11 systems soon. Microsoft is experimenting with a new "controller bar" feature that allows you to access up to three recently-played games by pressing the central Xbox button on a controller. This method means you don't have to use a mouse or keyboard to boot up a game you've been playing. That will come in handy for those who connect their PCs to TVs.

Microsoft said the controller bar feature is currently in testing for Windows Insiders on its Dev and Beta channels. You can check out how to enable the feature here.
