Abstract: A file access request is received from an application. One or more file types for the file access request are identified, and one or more file hosts supporting files of the identified one or more file types are also identified. A user interface is displayed, the user interface including a hosted area. Within the hosted area, at least one of the one or more file hosts displays a portion of the user interface identifying one or more files of at least one file host that can be selected for retrieval, or one or more locations that can be selected to which the one or more files are saved.

Abstract: A mixed reality display system determines a shared coordinate system that is understood by a mixed reality application running on the mixed reality display system and an operating system of the mixed reality display system. The operating system can display a system user interface (UI) element in a mixed reality environment. The system UI element can be displayed at a location in a mixed reality environment. The location is specified by the mixed reality application according to the shared coordinate system. A size and orientation for displaying the system UI element may also be specified. Also, the location, size and orientation may be specified through application program interfaces (API) of the operating system. API calls may be made per frame to adjust the location, size or orientation per frame of the displayed mixed reality environment.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to file system placeholders. In aspects, placeholders may be used by a client to represent remote file system objects. The placeholders may include metadata and may also include none, some, or all of the content of the represented remote file system objects. In response to a request to access content of a file system object represented by a placeholder, a client may obtain needed data from a remote storage system and stream or not stream the data to the requesting application based on whether the requesting application is capable of streaming the data.
