Here’s the translation to American English:
Microsoft has released the new version of Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 27965, available to users in the Canary channel. This release stands out for the introduction of a redesigned Start menu, aimed at making it easier to access applications and files.
The new menu features a scrollable design, where applications are organized into three sections: pinned apps at the top, recommendations in the center, and installed apps grouped in a new category interface at the bottom. This layout will allow users to access their applications more efficiently, eliminating the need to navigate through multiple pages.
New features also include two new views in the “All” section: a category view and a grid view. The former automatically groups applications by type, making it easier to find the most used ones, while the latter arranges applications alphabetically, enabling better visualization through a wider design.
Additionally, the dimensions of the Start menu have been improved, adapting according to the size of the device. On larger screens, up to eight columns of pinned apps and six recommendations can be displayed, while on smaller devices, the menu will adjust to six columns of apps and four recommendations.
To enhance user experience, responsive sections within the Start menu have been implemented, adjusting their size based on the number of pinned applications. Users can also disable recommendations from the Settings for those who prefer that option.
The release includes improved integration with mobile devices through the Phone Link tool, facilitating the expansion and collapse of content from connected devices.
Moreover, Build 27965 brings general changes and improvements, such as the removal of .NET Framework 3.5 as an optional component and the inclusion of a text editor in the command line. However, Microsoft has warned of some known issues, including crashes in File Explorer and on lock and login screens.
Windows Insiders in the Canary channel should remember that these builds represent changes at an early stage of development and may not be available in the final versions.
