- Microsoft在Windows11上直接增加了内置的互联网速度测试。
- 该工具将取代现有的测试器,它将带您到一个Bing网页。
- 新工具目前在最新的Windows内幕建筑中可供使用。
您的Windows PC上的互联网表现是否感到迟钝?测试实际速度可以告诉你,要过去运行一个速度测试,你通常必须去一个专用网站或安装一个特殊的应用程序。 Microsoft正在推出一个综合速度测试工具,旨在节省你的时间。

如何尝试新的速度测试工具
要尝试新工具,您需要加入 Microsoft 的 Windows 内线程序。 设置此功能时,请选择实验频道。 因为这些内幕建筑可能不稳定,取而代之的是使用备用计算机,双启动设置,或者虚拟机。 我通过VMware工作站管理内幕建筑
即使是实验频道,我不得不启用特殊旗帜测试。 要做到这一点,请前往设置,选择 Windows 更新,然后点击 Windows 内置程序。 选择特性旗的选项,然后从屏幕上滚动到快速设置速度测试的条目。 点击旁边的下放按钮,并更改设置,如果它还没有设置的话。 然后重新启动您的个人电脑。
又:慢无线?我找到十种方法来修复你的网络
在重新登录后,可以访问两种方式之一的新速度测试。 左键单击系统托盘,从快速设置菜单中选择速度测试。 否则,右键点击网络图标并从弹出菜单中选择“测试互联网速度”。 通过打开工具,只需点击测试按钮即可踢出。 该图将显示下载和上传速度
Windows 11已经包含一个网络速度测试工具。 在您当前版本的 Windows 11 中,右键单击系统托盘中的网络图标,并从菜单中选择“绩效速度测试”。 但正如你们所看到的,相反,它需要你到一个Bing搜索页面,在那里你必须运行测试,并在页面上看到结果。 相形之下,新工具被构建为Windows,使得它与现有的工具相比有了巨大的改进。
还有:Ookla的无线诊断工具提供一塔普故障排除
Microsoft 称在其博客文章中表示:「由于测试与您活跃的互联网连接相违背,“这一最新经验基于我们先前对Windows内幕的互联网速度测试,将测试及其结果直接带入了Windows。”
Microsoft并没有透露速度测试背后的源头。 称“由速度测试驱动”工具的Info图标,我多次在Ookla网站上进行内置速度测试
由于新的速度测试现在才打入内地实验频道,我们可能要等一等,才能正式将推出提供给所有Windows 11用户。 但工具方便使用,运行顺利,似乎准确。 希望我们不用等太久。

ZDNET’s key takeaways
- Microsoft is adding a built-in internet speed test directly to Windows 11.
- The tool will replace the existing tester, which takes you to a Bing web page.
- The new tool is currently available in the latest Windows Insider build.
Does the internet performance on your Windows PC ever feel sluggish? Testing the actual speed can tell you if it matches what you expect or what’s promised from your internet provider. To run a speed test in the past, you typically had to go to a dedicated website or install a special app. Now Microsoft is rolling out an integrated speed test tool designed to save your time.

How to try the new speed test tool
To try the new tool, you need to be part of Microsoft’s Windows Insider Program if you haven’t already joined. When setting this up, make sure you choose the Experimental channel. Since these Insider builds can be unstable, don’t do this on your primary PC. Instead, use a spare computer, a dual-boot setup, or a virtual machine. I run the Insider builds in a VM through VMware Workstation Pro.
Even with the Experimental channel, I had to enable a special flag for the test. To do this, go to Settings, select Windows Update, and then click Windows Insider Program. Select the option for Feature Flags and scroll down the screen to the entry for Quick Settings Speed Test. Click the drop-down button next to it and change the setting to Enabled if it’s not already set that way. Then restart your PC.

After you log back in, you can access the new speed test one of two ways. Left-click on the System tray and choose Speed test from the Quick Settings menu. Otherwise, right-click on the Network icon and select “Test internet speed” from the pop-up menu. With the tool open, just click the Test button to kick it off. The graph will show the download and upload speeds as they’re being tested, with the results giving you the numbers for both.
If this sounds familiar, that’s because Windows 11 already includes an internet speed test tool. In your current version of Windows 11, right-click on the Network icon in the System tray and choose “Perform speed test” from the menu. But as you’ll see, this test isn’t integrated into Windows. Instead, it takes you to a Bing search page where you then have to run the test and see the results on the page. In contrast, the new tool is built into Windows, making it a vast improvement over the existing one.

“Because the test runs against your active internet connection, you can quickly understand how your current connection is performing without leaving your workflow,” Microsoft said in its blog post. “This updated experience builds on the internet speed test we previously introduced for Windows Insiders, bringing the test and its results directly into Windows.”
Microsoft didn’t reveal the source behind the speed test. But the Info icon for the tool says “Powered by SpeedTest,” an indication that this is from internet speed tester Ookla. To gauge the results, I ran both the built-in speed test and the one at Ookla’s website several times, and the performance for both downloads and uploads were similar between the two.
Since the new speed test is only now hitting the Insider Experimental channel, we might have to wait a while before it officially rolls out to all Windows 11 users. But the tool is convenient to use, runs smoothly, and appears to be accurate. So, hopefully we won’t have to wait too long.
