UPDATE 8/19: KB5005189 Windows 11 Insider Preview Dev and Beta Build 10.0.22000.160 - August 19



Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22000.132 to everyone in the Dev and Beta Channels!

Changes and Improvements

  • Chat from Microsoft Teams is now available for Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel. We’re also excited to begin rolling out one-to-one and group audio and video calling, with many of the features that you’ve come to expect. You can create and join meetings. You can toggle your microphone and camera on or off and choose your preferred speakers, mic, and camera with device settings. You can manage meeting information and options. You can share your screen, see the roster of participants, admit meeting participants from the lobby, chat and see people’s video in a gallery view. We’re excited to bring this experience to a growing network of people!

The design of the experience features rounded corners, effects, and visuals coherent with the rest of the Windows 11 experience.Video call via Chat from Microsoft Teams.
  • The new Snipping Tool for Windows 11, updated Calculator app, and updated Mail and Calendar apps are rolling out to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel – see this blog post here for details!

Fixes

  • Search:
    • Did some work to address a scenario where the recent searches list displayed when hovering over the Search icon in the Taskbar was unexpectedly blank.
  • Widgets:
    • We fixed the issue where launching links from the widgets board wasn’t always invoking apps to the foreground.
    • Clicking the widgets icon in the Taskbar should open it on the correct monitor now.
  • Windows Sandbox:
    • The Taskbar (Explorer.exe) should no longer repeatedly crash inside of Windows Sandbox.
  • Other:
    • Addressed an issue leading to some Insiders experiencing a bug check when attempting to roll back in the previous flight.
    • Mitigated an issue that was making certain games go unresponsive after pressing the Enter key.
    • Fixed an issue where the “location in use” indicator icon wasn’t showing up in the Taskbar when it should have been.

Known issues

  • [REMINDER] When upgrading to Windows 11 from Windows 10 or when installing an update to Windows 11, some features may be deprecated or removed. See details here.
  • We’re investigating an issue where on some devices, when going to Settings > Windows Update > Windows Insider Program, only the “Stop getting preview builds” option is visible. This prevents Insiders from selecting a channel. We have posted a workaround on Answers.
  • [BETA CHANNEL] We’re investigating reports from Insiders in the Beta Channel where after upgrading to Windows 11, they are not seeing the new Taskbar and the Start menu doesn’t work. To workaround this if you are impacted, please try going to Windows Update > Update history, uninstalling the latest cumulative update for Windows, and the reinstall it by checking for updates.
  • Start:
    • In some cases, you might be unable to enter text when using Search from Start or the Taskbar. If you experience the issue, press WIN + R on the keyboard to launch the Run dialog box, then close it.
    • System and Windows Terminal is missing when right-clicking on the Start button (WIN + X).
  • Taskbar:
    • The Taskbar will sometimes flicker when switching input methods.
  • Search:
    • After clicking the Search icon on the Taskbar, the Search panel may not open. If this occurs, restart the “Windows Explorer” process, and open the search panel again.
    • Search panel might appear as black and not display any content below the search box.
    • On pen enabled devices, apps may not launch from the Search panel. If you experience this issue, please log out and back in to resolve the issue.
  • Settings:
    • Certain searches using the search box in Settings may crash Settings.
  • Widgets:
    • The Widgets board may appear empty. To work around the issue, you can sign out and then sign back in again.
    • Widgets may be displayed in the wrong size on external monitors. If you encounter this, you can launch the widgets via touch or WIN + W shortcut on your actual PC display first and then launch on your secondary monitors.
    • [Family widget] Some users may see a ‘connect a device to see screen time activity’ message even with screen time settings enable.
    • [Family widget] Location information may not be available for some users on iOS.
  • Store:
    • We are working to improve search relevance in the Store including resolving an issue where in some cases the ordering of search results is inaccurate.
    • The install button might not be functional yet in some limited scenarios.
    • Rating and reviews are not available for some apps.
  • Windows Sandbox
    • Within Windows Sandbox, the language input switcher does not launch after clicking the switcher icon on the Taskbar. As a workaround, users can switch their input language via any of the following hardware keyboard shortcuts: Alt + Shift, Ctrl + Shift, or Win + Space (the third option is available only if Sandbox is full-screened).
    • Within Windows Sandbox, the IME context menu does not launch after clicking the IME icon in the Taskbar. As workarounds, users can access the functionalities of the IME context menu with either of following methods:
      • Accessing the IME settings via Settings > Time & language > Language & region > (e.g. Japanese) three dots > Language options > (e.g. Microsoft IME) three dots > Keyboard options.
        • Optionally, you may also enable the IME toolbar, an alternative UI to quickly invoke specific IME functions. Continuing from above, navigate to Keyboard options > Appearance > Use IME toolbar.
      • Using the unique set of hardware keyboard shortcuts associated with each IME-supported language. (See: Japanese IME Shortcuts, Traditional Chinese IME Shortcuts).
  • Localization
    • There is an issue where some Insiders may be some missing translations from their user experience for a small subset of languages running the latest Insider Preview builds. To confirm if you have been impacted, please visit this Answers forum post and follow the steps for remediation.
  • Chat from Microsoft Teams
    • Experience is localized for English (US) only. Additional languages and locales forthcoming.
    • When you make an outgoing call, while you do not hear a ring tone, the user interface shows that the call is getting connected.
    • In a video call, sometimes people videos freeze or display a black image. There is a workaround to this issue, which is to pin the video that freezes and unpin it to fix the problem.
    • When switching between calls, the previous call is not automatically put on hold, so audio and video streams continue on both calls. Be sure to complete a call before taking another.

Microsoft Store

We are beginning to roll out the Store update (version 22108.1401.0) with auto-scrolling on Spotlight, new gaming PDP (product detail page) design, and the new Ratings and Reviews dialog to Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel.

When browsing, we’ll automatically scroll through content so you can discover your next favorite app, movie, or game.When browsing, we’ll automatically scroll through content so you can discover your next favorite app, movie, or game.

Well I thought I read somewhere RTM end this year, to the wild early next. Forgot the source, so...

I would rather wait and see some substance, if there will be any of that.

Oct/Nov of this year.
Thanks, both. That's what I have been seeing also.

OK, Still hanging in here so far. I see Microsoft is apparently never going to restore movement to the taskbar...to even equal the Win10 flexibility--which is beyond weird. I finally fixed the printer driver problem--HP drivers won't work correctly to install--my Officejet 8035e--but using the devices & Printers interface I was able to use the drivers I had installed in Win10. I forgot that HP enjoys making its drivers compatible with specific OS versions--and not installing properly from the HP install interface (or HP Smart) for a different version--like Win11.

Still just seems like a bunch of backwards progress to me compared to where they had taken 21390 under Win10. I'm sure with Win12 that the UI will get tossed out, again, just for the sake of doing it differently.

Icon cache is still not working for desktop shortcuts--Widgets could be configured to allow the user to use his preferred browser and choose his web sites--it's not--so I turn it off. This is Microsoft trying to make Edge useful and sneak it in there. (All of this has been reported to the hub a multiple of times--Microsoft doesn't even mention them.)

About the only thing I am impressed with is the AutoHDR setting. It works terrifically well, much better than it worked in 21390 Win10. The Win11 baseline security is fine--but I had all of it running in Win10, so no difference there.

    Sweet, trouble-free system! How I love this 6900XT! Exceeds my expectations by quite a bit, btw.
Yeah, they must release it to manufacturing before the Xmas season so some $$$ can be raked in. Probably doesn't matter if it is rushed for their bottom line, but we can only hope.

They're giving it out for free and Windows isn't their main source of revenue. I don't know but I wonder how many will shell out for new hardware to get 11. With 10 having a life expectancy of at least 4 more years I doubt many will switch.

If a long history is anything to go by, the machines sold for Christmas, assuming Win 11 is public, will be packed cram full of "Windows 11 Ready! FREE Upgrade!!!!" all over the labels and ads. With Win 10 20H2 installed.

They are giving it out for free to PC manufacturers?

They are giving it out for free to PC manufacturers?
No but they still make more money from business using Office and cloud systems than windows.

If a long history is anything to go by, the machines sold for Christmas, assuming Win 11 is public, will be packed cram full of "Windows 11 Ready! FREE Upgrade!!!!" all over the labels and ads. With Win 10 20H2 installed.
It is certainly hard not to be real cynical.

Note to self:

After a WU and reboot, never run sfc /scannow before rebooting once more.
Without that 2nd reboot, sfc /scannow takes forever.
AFTER the 2nd reboot... it only takes about 1 - 1.5 minutes for 36GB data on the C: drive.

Same on Windows 10 and 11.

This update done and dusted without issues so far. My widget was broken with the previous CU. However was restore by installing MicrosoftEdgeWebview2Setup. Not sure if it would help with widget not opening now.

Just got it through the store. New version of the store, snipping tool and I think a couple of other things.
I checked the Store for the third time then did a restart. I now have the new Snipping Tool. The Calculator still hasn't updated.

Dev and Beta channels may as well just merge into one, all the same now??
For now.. I hope the start to add and fix the dev faster soon.

No, they're not the same. Like Microsoft did with Windows 10, both are based on the same code however the Dev channel has features enabled which are not enabled in the Beta channel. That said, it does appear that the feature difference is in the add-on apps, formally distributed via the OS itself but now downloaded via the Store. E.g. the new snipping tool, calculator, and others they've documented in the release notes.

I think it's being rushed but time will tell if the can get it ready
It's probably already near final form. Windows 11 DEV builds are apparently beta builds being masqueraded as development builds to make us think we really have some input into the makeup of this money grab.
