How to Enable or Disable Suggested Actions on Windows 11?

Windows Insiders can try out a new feature in build 25115 for making everyday tasks quicker in Windows 11 through suggested actions. When you copy a date, time, or phone number, Windows will suggest efforts relevant to you, such as creating calendar events or making phone calls with relevant apps.

Say you’ve copied a phone number to a particular app. Now, an inline light dismissible UI on your Windows 11 will suggest ways for you to call that number. The same goes with booking a flight ticket. The same UI will suggest you create an event on the calendar so you don’t miss your flight.

The Suggested Action flyout includes the apps that can perform valuable anything on your copied data. For date or time, it may consist of Calendar, Outlook, etc. But if you don’t like the feature and want to disable it, Windows provides you with an option to do it. You can follow through with the article to learn how to do it.
