ViveTool codes for new features in Windows 11

If you want a specific feature in Windows 11, you might be able to enable it using ViveTool. Below we'll look at the codes you can use to enable certain improvements on your computer.

In Windows 11, Microsoft is taking a gradual and controlled approach to introducing new features. So when the company announces a new feature through a cumulative update or to a Windows Insider channel, that signals the feature's availability. However, it may take some time before it becomes available to the general public.

ViveTool is a command-line application (created by Rafael Rivera and Lucas and available on GitHub) that allows you to enable hidden experimental features in preview builds, as well as features that are gradually being released to the public.

Warning: You will be using a third-party tool that is not supported by Microsoft. Use at your own risk. Also, while you can run ViveTool to enable hidden features, there is no guarantee that they will work properly as codes expire and change all the time.

Let's see how it works.

First you need to download and unzip ViveTool ( https://github.com/thebookisclosed/ViVe/releases )

After placing it where you want, open the Command Prompt (with administrator privileges), and go to the ViveTool folder with cd (for example cd C:\Users\giorgos\Desktop)
and run the command `vivetool /enable /id:function_code`.

For example: vivetool /enable /id:61754985

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
