Microsoft has released a new update of Windows 11 Insider Preview, specifically Build 26200.5518 (KB5054687), aimed at users in the Dev Channel, known as Windows Insiders. This release represents a significant advancement in the 26200 series, as Insiders will no longer be able to switch from the Dev Channel to the Beta Channel starting from Build 26200.5510.
The new Build 26200 is based on the 24H2 version of Windows 11 and is expected to include a series of features and improvements that are being implemented in the 26120 series used in the Beta Channel. Over time, changes will be implemented in the platform of these builds, which could lead to known issues that differ from those in the Beta Channel.
One of the most anticipated features in this version is the scaling of icons on the taskbar. This improvement will allow icons to automatically shrink when there are too many pinned or open applications, making it easier to access more applications without needing to open a secondary menu. Users will have the option to customize this function, choosing when the icons should be reduced, either only when the taskbar is full or never.
Additionally, Microsoft has streamlined the process of sharing files through a new feature called “drag tray.” This tool will allow users to drag files from File Explorer or the desktop and drop them into applications that will appear on a tray at the top of the screen, making file sharing quicker and simpler.
In terms of improvements, changes are being introduced to the “Recall” reminder, which now has a basic search history function. Touch access has been adjusted to make invoking “Click to Do” easier. Mouse settings have been enhanced, allowing more options to be directly available in the accessibility settings without needing to access Control Panel.
However, users should be aware of certain known issues. For example, after restarting the PC, the system version may incorrectly display as Build 26100. Failures have also been reported in tools such as Quick Assist and Windows Sandbox, which are not operational in this version, although these issues are expected to be addressed in future releases.
In conclusion, this update for Windows 11 Insider Preview aims to optimize the user experience by introducing new features and improvements while working on resolving issues that have arisen in previous versions. Microsoft continues to encourage feedback from Insiders to refine these features and ensure a more efficient and smooth operating system.
