Over the past month or so, there have been a lot of reports and discussions about how Microsoft will shape the future of Windows. Rumor has it that with Next Valley (or Windows 12), the company could return to its Windows 10X ambitions with a new modular approach to “CorePC”.
A senior company executive has already mentioned that the cloud and artificial intelligence will play a big role in next-generation systems. So Microsoft seems to be slowly adding Cloud PC options within the Settings app.
Apart from these, we have more changes in the recent Canary Insider build 25330.
Twitter user and Windows sleuth Albacore reports that the Cloud PC option will allow users to connect multiple Cloud computing providers.
Small peek at more Cloud PC UX pieces 😶🌫️
Users will also be able to install multiple Cloud PC providers! Pretty excited to see that this isn't locked down to Windows 365 😊 pic.twitter.com/BPi99EfAlF

Of course, there should also be a registered remote Cloud PC system for this:
IDs aside, you need a Cloud PC provider installed + a remote system registered/bound to it
Without these the Settings page and the virtual desktop switcher parts remain hidden- Albacore (@thebookisclosed) April 3, 2023
All of these are of course not officially announced at the moment, but can be activated using the ViVeTool IDs (34508225, 40459297, 42354458, 42453017). However, we don't recommend doing this, especially on your everyday PC, as these features are still under development.
