Microsoft has recently released Windows 11 Build 22631.5696 (KB5062663) to Insiders in the Release Preview Channel, marking a significant update for users on version 23H2. This build introduces a series of enhancements and fixes aimed at improving system stability, file management, networking, and printing functionalities.
Key Fixes and Improvements:
- Country and Operator Settings Asset (COSA): The update brings profiles up to date for certain mobile operators, ensuring better compatibility and performance for users relying on cellular connections.
- File Systems:
- Resilient File System (ReFS): An issue where using backup applications on large files could occasionally result in system memory becoming fully exhausted has been addressed.
- PDF File Search: Previously, searching for PDF files in a shared folder could return incorrect error messages, such as "No More Files" or "STATUS_NO_MORE_FILES." These errors disrupted output to the virtual PDF printer and interfered with backup processes. This issue has now been fixed.
- Networking: An issue where peripheral devices could take longer to work after resuming from hibernation on some devices with active cellular connections has been resolved, enhancing the efficiency of device wake-up processes.
- Printer: Printer names now appear more clearly when using IPP Directed Discovery, making it easier to identify printers during setup.
- Stability Issue: This update addresses an issue observed in rare cases after installing the May 2025 security update and subsequent updates, causing devices to experience stability issues. Some devices became unresponsive, and this has now been rectified.
