The items in that information window are somewhat useful. Now, whenever you click on that icon in the taskbar, this contact information window will pop up. 1Ĭlick on the People icon in your taskbar and you’ll be shown a list of suggested contacts you might be interested in pinning to the taskbar.Ĭlick on one of those contacts and two things will happen: Contacts you have in other accounts or other programs are not included. Right now, that appears to include the contacts in your Microsoft account - typically those that appear in the Windows 10 Mail application (when configured for your Microsoft account) and Skype.
Note that this only applies to contacts in supported apps. As we’ll see below, it makes contacting them somewhat easier. Presumably, you’d do this for a contact with whom you interact frequently. The idea is this: you can pin an icon for a contact to your taskbar. My sense is it’s somewhat half-baked, and ultimately more annoying than useful. Hover your mouse pointer over it, and you’ll see it’s labeled “People”. One of the easiest ways to determine if your Windows 10 machine has been updated to the “Fall Creators Update” is the appearance of a new icon to the immediate left of the notification area of the Windows taskbar.
