The Redmond family has released a new build of 22621.741 and 22623.741 (KB5018503) today. According to a blog post, the company wants to keep up with the changes.
Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22621.741 and Build 22623.741 (KB5018503) to the Beta Channel.
The 22622 build, which was originally developed a week and a half ago, has been changed to 22623.Microsoft elaborated on the change, according to the following:
Insiders who were previously on Build 22622 will have access to Build 22623 via an enablement package. New features are being added to the upgrade, which is artificially increased, allowing the user to choose between the update and the other modes of service. This approach is not indicative of any changes or intentions for final feature rollouts.
and without further ado, here''s what''s new in Build 22623.741
This build has no new features.
The following are the improvements made in Build 22623.741.
NOTE: These improvements will only be shown if the tablet-optimized taskbar is enabled on your device. Windows Insiders are still developing, but the tablet-optimized taskbar isn''t yet available for everyone.
- We fixed the issue causing the taskbar to sometimes collapse when it should be expanded if there are no running windows on the desktop.
- We fixed an issue that would occur when using the left or right edge gestures resulting in the Widgets or Notification Center (respectively) to overlap with or look truncated by the taskbar.
- Fixed an issue that was causing the tablet-optimized taskbar to crash explorer.exe if you entered the overflow flyout.
Note: These improvements will only show if a tablet-optimized taskbar with System Tray updates is enabled on your device. Windows Insiders: The tablet-optimized taskbar and System Tray are still available for download and aren''t yet available for anyone.
- Fixed an issue so that Quick Settings items can now be rearranged with touch again.
Both Build 22621.741 and Build 22623.741 have been bug fixes.
- We fixed an issue that affects Server Manager. It might reset the wrong disk when several disks have the same UniqueId.
- We fixed localization issues for some setup files. These issues might stop you from creating installation media for non-English languages.
And finally, here are some of the known questions:
[General]
- Were looking into reports that audio stopped working for some Insiders in recent Beta Channel builds.
[Testimized taskbar with Tablets]
- The taskbar sometimes flashes when transitioning between desktop posture and tablet posture.
- The taskbar takes longer than expected to transition to the touch-optimized version when switching between desktop posture and tablet posture.
- When using the bottom right edge gesture to see Quick Settings, the taskbar sometimes stays stuck in the expanded state, instead of dismissing to collapsed state.
