You can go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi on your PC > Turn Wi-Fi off, now the user can set a time period for ‘Turn Wi-Fi back On’ to turn on the Wi-Fi automatically after the time chosen. By default it is set Manually in this build. This setting also works on Mobile too.
Auto-Correction Prevention Option for Mobile
If the user happens to find the auto-correction is going on (i.e first candidate is bolded) and that’s not what you intended, the originally typed as the second candidate can be seen now with this new option. By a tap on that candidate, it will disable auto-correction. The system will learn the user’s vocabulary over the time and gets smarter.
