Windows Insiders on the Release Preview Channel can now access Windows 11 Build 22621.2213 (KB5029351), introducing a range of new features and enhancements. Here's a brief overview of the key updates in this release:
Features and Improvements:
- App Defaults Functionality: Added new functionality impacting app defaults, enhancing user control over default app settings.
- Search Box Hover Behavior: Implemented a new hover behavior for the search box gleam, where hovering over it reveals the search flyout box. Users can customize this behavior via Taskbar settings after right-clicking on the taskbar.
- Enable Optional Updates Policy: Introduced a new policy, "Enable optional updates," allowing administrators to configure optional monthly cumulative updates for commercial devices, aiding Controlled Feature Rollouts (CFR).
- Daylight Saving Time Support for Israel: Implemented support for daylight saving time changes in Israel.
- Group Policy Service Enhancement: Resolved an issue where the Group Policy Service did not wait for the network to be available within the default wait time, impacting policy processing.
- D3D12 Independent Devices API: Added a new API for D3D12 Independent Devices, facilitating the creation of multiple D3D12 devices on the same adapter.
- Search Icon and App Reliability Enhancements: Various fixes and improvements were made to the search icon behavior, Search app reliability, and Search-related interactions.
- Start Menu Icons and Settings Sync Fix: Addressed issues related to missing start menu icons after the initial sign-in and settings not syncing despite enabling the toggle in the Settings app.
- Narrator and Resultant Set of Policy (RSOP) Fixes: Corrected Narrator behavior related to search box context, and resolved issues with the RSOP report for the Windows LAPS "BackupDirectory" policy setting.
- Windows Update for Business Issue Resolution: Fixed an issue where changing the password at sign-in in Windows Update for Business led to sign-in failures, resulting in error code 0xc000006d.
