Windows 11 has been released, but behind the scenes, Microsoft is constantly working
to improve the newest version of Windows. The company frequently rolls out public
preview builds to members of its Windows Insider Program, allowing them to test out —
and even help shape — upcoming features.
The Windows Insider program is divided into three channels:
 The Dev Channel is where new features are introduced for initial testing,
regardless of which Windows release they‟ll eventually end up in. This channel
is best for technical users and developers and builds in it may be unstable and
buggy.
 In the Beta Channel, you‟ll get more polished features that will be deployed in
the next major Windows release. This channel is best for early adopters, and
Microsoft says your feedback in this channel will have the most impact.
 The Release Preview Channel typically doesn‟t see action until shortly before a
new feature update is rolled out. It‟s meant for final testing of an upcoming
release and is best for those who want the most stable builds.
The Beta and Release Preview Channels also receive bug-fix builds for the currently
shipping version of Windows 11.
Not everyone can participate in the Windows 11 Insider program, because the new
operating system has more stringent system requirements than Windows 10. As
outlined in this Microsoft blog post, if your PC fails to meet the minimum hardware
requirements for Windows 11, you cannot join the Windows 11 Insider Program.

Below you'll find information about all the Windows 11 preview builds that have been
released. For each build, we've included the date of its release, which Insider channel it
was released to, a summary of what's in the build, and a link to Microsoft's
announcement about it.
Note: If you're looking for information about updates being rolled out to all Windows 11
users, not previews for Windows Insiders, see “Windows 11: A guide to the updates.”

  • 1. hello friends please like my blog : bhardaarshi14.blogspot.com, pinterest : https://in.pinterest.com/bhardaarshi14/ youtube channel : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRZ0hcPWQccF3gcuA5dZUvQ Windows 11 has been released, but behind the scenes, Microsoft is constantly working to improve the newest version of Windows. The company frequently rolls out public preview builds to members of its Windows Insider Program, allowing them to test out — and even help shape — upcoming features. The Windows Insider program is divided into three channels:  The Dev Channel is where new features are introduced for initial testing, regardless of which Windows release they‟ll eventually end up in. This channel is best for technical users and developers and builds in it may be unstable and buggy.  In the Beta Channel, you‟ll get more polished features that will be deployed in the next major Windows release. This channel is best for early adopters, and Microsoft says your feedback in this channel will have the most impact.  The Release Preview Channel typically doesn‟t see action until shortly before a new feature update is rolled out. It‟s meant for final testing of an upcoming release and is best for those who want the most stable builds. The Beta and Release Preview Channels also receive bug-fix builds for the currently shipping version of Windows 11.
  • 2. Not everyone can participate in the Windows 11 Insider program, because the new operating system has more stringent system requirements than Windows 10. As outlined in this Microsoft blog post, if your PC fails to meet the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11, you cannot join the Windows 11 Insider Program. [ Related: How to check if your PC can run Windows 11 ] Below you'll find information about all the Windows 11 preview builds that have been released. For each build, we've included the date of its release, which Insider channel it was released to, a summary of what's in the build, and a link to Microsoft's announcement about it. Note: If you're looking for information about updates being rolled out to all Windows 11 users, not previews for Windows Insiders, see “Windows 11: A guide to the updates.” Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25211 Release date: September 29, 2022 Released to: Dev Channel This build introduces new settings to the Widgets pane and makes them easier to access than previous settings. It also adds Task Manager to the context menu that appears on the taskbar when you right-click it. The build also fixes a variety of bugs, including one in which command bar items like copy, paste, and empty recycle bin may unexpectedly not be enabled when they should be, and another in which Settings would crash when changing your mobile hotspot name. The build has 10 known issues, including one in which the Widgets notification badge number may appear misaligned on the taskbar, and another in which the taskbar takes longer than expected to transition to the touch-optimized version when switching between desktop and tablet postures. (Get more info about Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25211.) Windows 11 Insider Preview Builds 22621.730 and 22623.730
  • 3. Release date: September 29, 2022 Released to: Beta Channel These updates are being released to two groups in the Beta Channel. One group will get the Build 22623.730 update that has new features and bug fixes. The other group will receive the Build 22621.730 update that has new features and some new bug fixes turned off by default. In Build 22623.730, the tablet-optimized taskbar has been reintroduced. In addition, File Explorer search will show results as you type. Among the bugs fixed are one that caused parts of the taskbar or its icons to get stuck in the wrong theme‟s colors when switching between light and dark themes. There are a wide variety of bug fixes for both 22621.730 and 22623.730, including for one that stopped you from signing in to various Microsoft 365 apps, and another that caused updates to the Microsoft Store to fail. Both builds have six known issues, including one in which audio has stopped working for some Insiders, and another in which when there are no running windows on the desktop, the taskbar can sometimes collapse, when it should be expanded. (Get more info about Windows 11 Insider Preview Builds 22621.730 and 22623.730.) Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22621.607 Release date: September 22, 2022 Released to: Release Preview Channel This build for Windows 11 22H2 fixes a wide variety of bugs, including one that that caused updates to the Microsoft Store to fail, another that stopped you from signing into various Microsoft Office 365 apps, and another in which Task Manager stopped working when you switched between light and dark mode or changed the accent color.

  • 4. Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25206 Release date: September 21, 2022 Released to: Dev Channel This build improves the security of the SMB server service by implementing a delay between each failed NTLM authentication in the SMB authentication rate limiter. This means, for example, if an attacker previously sent 300 brute force attempts per second from a client for 5 minutes (90,000 passwords), the same number of attempts would now take at least 50 hours. The build also fixes a variety of bugs, including one in which OneDrive setup unexpectedly asked for permission to set up every time your PC rebooted, and another in which the Windows Sandbox window resized incorrectly when you snapped it to the side of the screen. The build has 13 known issues, including one in which the Widgets notification badge number may appear misaligned on the taskbar, and another in which command bar items like Copy, Paste, and Empty Recycle Bin may unexpectedly not be enabled when they should be.

Windows 11 Insider Preview Builds 22621.601 and 22622.601 Release date: September 21, 2022 Released to: Beta Channel These updates are being released to two groups in the Beta Channel. One group will get the Build 22622.601 update, which would normally have new bug fixes. The other group will receive the Build 22621.601 update, which would normally have most new bug fixes turned off by default. In this instance, however, the builds are identical. The build fixes four bugs, including one in which clicking the network icon on the Lock screen crashed the Lock screen, and another that affected Dual SIM calling. If you

Windows 11 Insider Preview Builds 22621.598 and 22622.598 Release date: September 12, 2022 Released to: Beta Channel These updates are being released to two groups in the Beta Channel. One group will get the Build 22622.598 update that has new bug fixes. The other group will receive the Build 22621.598 update that has most new bug fixes turned off by default. For those who get Build 22622.598, among the bugs fixed are one that wouldn‟t allow you to interact with the top part of File Explorer (with the address bar) when File Explorer was full screen, and another in which File Explorer command bar items like copy, paste, and empty recycle bin were not enabled when they should have been. There are several bug fixes for both Build 22621.598 and 22622.598, including one that created a duplicate print queue, and another in Roaming User Profiles in which after you signed in or out, some of your settings were not restored. Both builds have one known issue, in which clicking the network icon on the Lock screen does not work, may crash the Lock screen, and may require you to reboot to log in. (Get more info about Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22621.598 and 22622.598.) Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25197 Release date: September 8, 2022 Released to: Dev Channel

Your taskbar will automatically transition to the optimized version when you disconnect or fold back the keyboard on your 2-in-1 device. In addition, animated icons are being rolled out in the Settings app. The build also fixes a variety of bugs, including one that caused parts of the taskbar or its icons like search to get stuck in the wrong theme‟s colors when switching between light and dark theme, and another that led to Settings crashing when removing devices. The build has 13 known issues, including one in which the Widgets notification badge number may appear misaligned on the taskbar, and another in which command bar items like copy, paste, and empty recycle bin may unexpectedly not be enabled when they should be. (Get more info about Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25197.) Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25193 Release date: September 1, 2022 Released to: Dev Channel This build introduces new Xbox subscription management details in the Windows 11 Settings app. If you are a member of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, PC Game Pass, Xbox Game Pass for Console or Xbox Live Gold, you can now see your subscription details via Settings > Accounts. It also fixes a variety of bugs, including several that were leading to sporadic explorer.exe crashes related to the taskbar overflow, one that caused the Start menu to crash on launch for some people when Search Highlights was enabled, and one in File Explorer in which certain files couldn‟t be unpinned from the Favorites section of Home after you‟d pinned them. The build has 10 known issues, including one in which the Widgets notification badge number may appear misaligned on the taskbar, and another in which games that use Easy Anti-Cheat may crash or cause your PC to bug check.

Eventually Android mobile games and apps will be housed there, and be able to work on Windows 11.  When you undock your laptop, the windows on your external monitor will be minimized. When you re-dock your computer to your monitor, Windows puts everything back where it was before.  With Windows 11‟s Dynamic Refresh Rate, your PC can automatically boost the refresh rate when you‟re inking or scrolling to give you a smoother experience, and lower the refresh rate when you don‟t need it to save power on your laptop.  Settings has been redesigned, including left-hand navigation that persists between pages. There are also breadcrumbs to help you know exactly where you are in Settings.  Windows 11 offers Wi-Fi 6E.
