Guest Amanda Langowski Posted July 23 Posted July 23 Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22635.3936 (KB5040535) to the Beta Channel. REMINDER: Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel will receive updates based on Windows 11, version 23H2 via an enablement package (Build 22635.xxxx). For Insiders in the Beta Channel who want to be the first to get features gradually rolled out to you, you can turn ON the toggle (shown in the image below) to get the latest updates as they are available via Settings > Windows Update. Over time, we will increase the rollouts of features to everyone with the toggle turned on. Should you keep this toggle off, new features will gradually be rolled out to your device over time once they are ready. [caption id=attachment_176587" align="alignnone" width="671] Turn on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available to get new features rolled out to you.[/caption] Going forward, we will document changes in Beta Channel builds in two buckets: new features, improvements, and fixes that are being gradually rolled out for Insiders who have turned on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available and then new features, improvements, and fixes available to everyone in the Beta Channel. [HEADING=1]Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on*[/HEADING] [HEADING=2][General][/HEADING] We are trying out updated designs for the "Open with" dialog where the group headers are removed, among a few other changes. [HEADING=2][Taskbar & System Tray][/HEADING] We have temporarily disabled the more simplified system tray with shortened date/time change that began rolling out with Build 22635.3930 to address several issues. We will begin re-enabling this on a future flight. If you saw this change previously, it will likely disappear after updating to this build today. [HEADING=1]Fixes gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on*[/HEADING] [HEADING=2][input][/HEADING] Fixed an issue causing text suggestions for the hardware keyboard to not work properly in recent builds (selecting one unexpectedly concatenated). Fixed a few high hitting ctfmon.exe crashes, which could impact the ability to input text. Fixed an issue which could cause certain mice and keyboards to not work in safe mode. [HEADING=1]Known issues[/HEADING] [HEADING=2][General][/HEADING] [NEW] We’re investigating a couple of issues causing an increase in explorer.exe crashes for some Insiders with the latest builds. [NEW] We’re working on the fix for an issue causing the Notification Center to get stuck and not open sometimes for some Insiders with the latest builds. [HEADING=2][File Explorer][/HEADING] Insiders in the Beta Channel with the updated Recent, Favorites, and Shared sections on the File Explorer homepage may see the following known issues: Files shared with you may not appear if there has been no interaction with that file. Keyboard focus may be lost on selection of an unselected tab item. Narrator may not work as expected when navigating through the Recent, Favorites, and Shared tab items. [HEADING=2][Widgets][/HEADING] Insiders in the Beta Channel who have the new position for the Widgets entry-point on left-aligned taskbars may see the following known issues: Swipe invocation for Widgets may not work if taskbar is center-aligned instead of left-aligned. Unpinning Widgets from the taskbar may not work if taskbar is center-aligned instead of left-aligned. The Widgets board is incorrectly positioned when Copilot is in side-by-side mode. [HEADING=2][input][/HEADING] [NEW] We are working on the fix for an issue causing the emoji panel to close when trying to switch to the kaomoji and symbols sections, or after selecting an emoji. [HEADING=1]Microsoft Store Update[/HEADING] Windows Insiders across all Insider Channels running version 22406.xxxx.x of the Microsoft Store and higher will see the following improvement rolling out: Store Search suggestions: When you’re searching for content in the Store Search box, a new flyout at the bottom of the search display suggests content you may be interested in. Check it out by navigating to the Search box! [caption id=attachment_177194" align="alignnone" width="610] New flyout at the bottom of search results showing recommended content from the Store.[/caption] Browsing games per category: From the Gaming page, you can now navigate easily and quickly through different game categories such as strategy, role-playing, shooter, sport, puzzle, and simulation. We are trying this out in the US, UK and CA. [caption id=attachment_177195" align="alignnone" width="709] Navigate more easily between game categories in the Store.[/caption] FEEDBACK: Please file feedback in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Microsoft Store. [HEADING=1]Reminders for Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel[/HEADING] Updates released to the Beta Channel are based off Windows 11, version 23H2. Features and experiences included in these builds may never get released as we try out different concepts and get feedback. Features may change over time, be removed, or replaced and never get released beyond Windows Insiders. Some of these features and experiences could show up in future Windows releases when they’re ready. Many features in the Beta Channel are rolled out using Control Feature Rollout technology, starting with a subset of Insiders and ramping up over time as we monitor feedback to see how they land before pushing them out to everyone in this channel. Some features in active development we preview with Windows Insiders may not be fully localized and localization will happen over time as features are finalized. As you see issues with localization in your language, please report those issues to us via Feedback Hub. Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel who want to be the first to get features gradually rolled out to you*, you can turn ON the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available via Settings > Windows Update. Over time, we will increase the rollouts of features to everyone with the toggle turned on. Should you keep this toggle off, new features will gradually be rolled out to your device over time once they are ready. Because the Dev and Beta Channels represent parallel development paths from our engineers, there may be cases where features and experiences show up in the Beta Channel first. Check out Flight Hub for a complete look at what build is in which Insider channel. Copilot in Windows** is being rolled out gradually to Windows Insiders across our global markets. Customers in the European Economic Area will be able to download the Copilot in Windows experience as an app from the Microsoft Store. Thanks, Amanda & Brandon Continue reading... Quote
