Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Mr_C_rM, Alucard, Sentinel, EdgeOS, Terrence, soft media Xinyou 2010825, anti-rain hedgehog for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com October 20, Microsoft today released a preview of Windows 11 Build 25227 for Dev channels. This includes update management improvements for IT administrators, as well as a series of general changes and improvements.

Microsoft is launching the second season of "Inside Windows 11" for Windows 11 2022 updates, after the first season was about accessibility content. CTOnews.com has learned that an update to the Microsoft Store is being released to all Windows Insiders to introduce pop-up trailers for games and movies.

New content

Improvements in update management to ensure consistency and predictability of Windows Update restart times are a key part of a successful update strategy. To improve the predictability of the restart, Microsoft has made the following changes to Update Stack Orchestrator.

Now, the deadline for quality and functional updates is calculated based on the time when the customer's update scan first found the update. Previously, for quality updates, the deadline was based on the release date of the update, and for feature updates, the deadline was based on the date to be restarted.

The deadline group policy settings that specify automatic updates and restarts are split into two separate settings to be consistent with existing configuration service provider (CSP) policies. The options in the Group Policy settings are the same for both functional and quality updates. Each new setting also has the option of "do not restart automatically until the end of the grace period". The new Group Policy settings are:

Specify deadlines for automatic updates and restarts for quality updates

Specify the deadline for automatic updates and the restart time for feature updates

In order to reduce the impact of changes in the due date calculation, the default values for feature updates are changed to the following:

Update/ConfigureDeadlineForFeatureUpdates=2 (previously 7).

Update/ConfigureDeadlineGracePeriodForFeatureUpdate = 7 (previously 2)

Changes and improvements [start menu]

Microsoft is trying to make small changes to the start menu, and some internal testers will see badges on their user profiles, informing them that they need to take some action.

[widget]

Microsoft is experimenting with titles in different locations and new gadget board icons to learn how to best optimize the gadget panel for users. Through the use of single-row or column icons, bring more consistent, clean, accessible icons to convey operations and functions to users with simple visual effects.

[input]

Support for clipboard history (WIN + V) changes on password fields, introduced from Build 25206, is now available to all Windows Insiders in Dev development channels.

Allow users to contribute voice clips to Microsoft again, including when using voice recognition on the device.

[voice input]

Microsoft is introducing a change to synchronize voice typing settings, automatic punctuation and voice typing initiators on all devices logged in using the same Microsoft account. Users can switch this function by setting up > account > Windows backup > remembering my preferences > accessibility. Currently, this only applies to current Microsoft accounts, and will be supported by AAD in the future.

[settings]

The new dialog box warns users of possible data loss if they choose to change the partition style of the storage drive under system > Storage > disk and Volume > disk Properties.

The Ethernet and Wi-Fi properties pages in the settings have been updated so that gateway information can now be displayed in the network details summary.

Repair [generic]

Fixed a bug that prevented some internal testers from upgrading to the latest version of the Dev development channel, and the bug was 0xC1900101. As a reminder, this is a common rollback error code, so users may encounter different problems if they continue to see the error after today's update.

[tablet optimized taskbar].

Note: these fixes are displayed only if the tablet-optimized taskbar is enabled on the device. The tablet-optimized taskbar is still available to Windows Insiders and is not yet available to everyone.

Fixed an issue that caused explorer.exe to crash when switching between tablet-optimized taskbar applications.

On the tablet-optimized taskbar, the "start" touch gesture now follows the finger correctly.

Improved the touch gesture of the taskbar optimized by the tablet computer and the way the animation matches with the touch keyboard.

You can now use the stylus to slide up the taskbar to expand the tablet-optimized taskbar.

[system Tray Update]

Note: these fixes are displayed only if system tray updates are enabled on the device. The tablet-optimized taskbar is still available to Windows Insiders and is not yet available to everyone.

Fixed an issue that caused explorer.exe to crash when dragging icons in the system tray.

Right-clicking the system tray icon will no longer cause the auto-hidden taskbar to be mistakenly hidden.

Displaying a hidden icon panel in the system tray no longer blocks context menus (also known as right-click menus) that open after it.

Fixed an issue where it would not work the first time you tried to open Quick setup from the system tray.

Fixed an issue that prevented the system tray icon from being updated in real time.

[file Explorer]

When you scroll to the bottom of the navigation pane with the mouse wheel and try to scroll up, it is no longer stuck at the bottom.

Fixed an issue that might cause some applications to hang when opening the Open File Dialog Box or the Save File Dialog Box.

Fixed an issue that might cause users to see separator overlapping entries in the navigation pane.

[start menu]

Fixed an issue where dragging content on the open start menu folder could cause a crash.

[search]

Fix helps resolve problems where the search may not respond when you click the search icon in the taskbar.

Open pictures from search and no longer accidentally open them in print.

[input]

Fixed an issue where users might lose the ability to interact with some games with the mouse over time.

Fixed an issue where the multiplication sign (x, U+00D7) could not be displayed correctly in the Yu Gothic font family of high-resolution screens.

[settings]

The size of the UWP application icon under Application > startup is no longer so small.

[task Manager]

Drag the Task Manager from the bottom area of the title bar to move the window to work properly.

[other]

Fixed several issues that caused some applications to crash in recent releases, including OneNote. Microsoft is continuing to investigate feedback in this area.

Microsoft has made changes to address problems that can lead to performance degradation when using performance monitoring tools that take advantage of Microsoft-Windows-DxgKrnl ETW providers. This also affects the performance of Windows Mixed Reality.

Fixed an issue where recording devices that enabled listen to this device might not display in the volume mixer when playing sound.

If you reset the computer, the screen displayed during the reset will now be black, so it is consistent with the upgrade screen.

If you encounter a game service crash when trying to play some games in previous versions of Dev, please check out the game service update in the Microsoft Store, which is now expected to be resolved.

Fixed a bug that caused some computers to accidentally check for errors when upgrading to the latest version with the error message "MULTIPROCESSOR_CONFIGURATION_NOT_SUPPORTED".

Fixed an issue in previous versions that might cause Miracast to unexpectedly fail to connect.
