Adobe and Microsoft will bring Adobe Express templates and AI editing tools to Microsoft Photos on Windows 11, as detailed in a company blog post. A preview for Windows Insiders will begin in December.

The native Photos editor will let users extend images beyond their original borders, rotate photos without cropping, change selected areas through text instructions, and remove unwanted objects. Users will also be able to open photos in Adobe Express and preview them in templates before continuing their designs.

Adobe also optimized Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects, and the beta version of Substance 3D Painter for high performance Arm based Windows PCs. The updates support faster local AI processing, editing, color work, effects, and rendering on computers using NVIDIA RTX Spark, including the Surface Laptop Ultra.
