The company is overlaying ads in the File Explorer promoting some of its other paid products to users. A Microsoft MVP <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/flobo09\/status\/1502645866204704773?\">posted an image<\/a> of the small, unassuming ad on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, and users are <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ryderjj89\/status\/1503368567231766533\">not happy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Some people will go mad if Microsoft starts adding ads in explorer. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rusnyrYyX2\">pic.twitter.com\/rusnyrYyX2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Florian (@flobo09) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/flobo09\/status\/1502645866204704773?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 12, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The ad is for the Microsoft Editor tool, and while there is a free version, it\u2019s also a paid app that you\u2019ll eventually have to buy. So instead of simply suggesting a helpful tool for Windows 11 users, Microsoft is essentially putting an ad inside the File Explorer\u2014something no one wants to see.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the image floating around the web and on Reddit, it reads, <em>\u201cWrite with confidence across documents, email, and the web with advanced writing suggestions from Microsoft Editor.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You can even click a little \u201cLearn More\u201d button, too, which takes you to a landing page to download, test, and buy the service to improve grammar and spelling. However, it\u2019s worth noting that several outlets have tried replicating this advertisement without success.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is likely A\/B testing this \u201cfeature\u201d on a limited number of users, but we can\u2019t know for sure. So, if you run the latest Insider Build and see an ad in your File Explorer, now you know why.<\/p>\n<p><small>via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/news\/windows-11-is-testing-ads-in-the-worst-place-possible\">TechRadar<\/a><\/small>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
