Previously only enjoyed by Windows 7 users, Microsoft has updated its Bing Desktop app to play nice with all modern versions of Windows going all the way back to XP. The OS’ latest iteration already packs a slew of Bing-powered applications, but none of them replicate the app’s headlining trick: syncing desktop backgrounds with Bing’s daily wallpaper. Windows 8 (and XP, Vista and server) users who adopt the 1.1 update can set the app to change their background daily, or manually set it to any background form the past nine days. News aficionados can peek at trending headlines and popular images underneath the search field, which itself can be docked at the top of the screen for easy access. Microsoft has also added French, German, Chinese and Japanese language support to the app. If this piques your interest, go ahead and download it at the source — that is, if you haven’t Google-fied your Start Screen just yet.Filed under: MicrosoftCommentsVia: Microsoft NewsSource: Bing, Bing Desktop
