  • Staff
UPDATE 4/29:

UPDATE 4/19: We are starting to roll out Cumulative Update Build 22598.200 (KB5014105). This update does not include anything new and is designed to test our servicing pipeline for builds in the Dev and Beta Channels.

UPDATE 4/15: We are starting to roll out Cumulative Update Build 22598.100 (KB5014100). This update does not include anything new and is designed to test our servicing pipeline for builds in the Dev and Beta Channels.

Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22598 to the Dev and Beta Channels.

TL;DR

  • We are releasing ISOs for this build – they can be downloaded here.
  • Like last week, this build includes only a handful of changes and improvements but includes a good set of fixes that will improve Insider’s overall experience on their device.
  • We’re rolling out a new update to Media Player for Windows 11 (Version 11.2203.30.0) to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel – details below.

Changes and Improvements

[General]

  • We are now offering new builds to Windows Insiders in China on Lenovo PCs starting with Build 22598. These users should connect to the internet for a minimum of 15 minutes to allow the Lenovo PC Manager to auto update to the latest version (version 5.0.0.3292 or later) to receive an important fix with the app.
  • We are trying out auto-launching of the Get Started app with some Windows Insiders after upgrade to help people get started with their PC.
  • [REMINDER] As described in our in our blog post here, Windows Insiders who use the Dev Channel may get to try out new ideas, longer lead features, and experiences that may never get released. In this build, a limited set of Insiders will see the first of these experimental features as we explore additional ways to help people discover and get quick access to content they care about on the web with the Windows search box. If you see some of these concepts, be sure to let us know what you think via Feedback Hub (Win + F) and choose category Desktop Environment > Search.

[Windows Spotlight]

  • We are trying out Windows Spotlight on desktop is on by as the default background for new devices (clean installs using the ISO) and for upgrades where the background the Windows 11 default. We are trying this experience out with a limited number of Windows Insiders at first.


    Windows Spotlight showing a beautiful background with the contest menu to like, unlike backgrounds and switch to a different background.

  • We are also trying out displaying 4K desktop backgrounds in Windows Spotlight. We are also trying this experience out with a limited number of Windows Insiders at first.

[Taskbar]

  • Updated the tooltip on the volume icon to tell you when you’re using spatial sound.

Fixes

[General]

  • Devices using Windows Information Protection (formerly EDP) policies can now access controlled data via protected apps such as Outlook, Word, Microsoft Edge, etc. as expected.

[Windowing]

  • Returned the missing animation when pressing WIN + D or clicking the Show Desktop button.
  • We addressed an issue when using snap layouts with touch which could result in an acrylic sheet getting stuck on top of the window.
  • The thumbnails in Task View should no longer be inverted when using Hebrew or Arabic display languages.
  • Fixed an explorer.exe crash when invoking Task View.
  • If you have a lot of windows open, they should no longer become superimposed on top of Desktops in Task View.
  • Fixed an issue when using ALT + Tab with a screen reader, where if you ALT + Tabbed back to certain app windows, focus would be set to a pane within the window rather than the whole window.
  • Fixed an underlying issue where accented colored title bars (when enabled) for certain apps and File Explorer were only displaying when the windows were maximized.
  • Mitigated a rare issue that could lead to the system hanging when changing the resolution sometimes in certain games.
  • Addressed an issue causing white pixels in the corners of some apps when using dark mode.

  • Running powercfg /query should work now when launched from syswow64 or from a 32-bit process.
  • Fixed an apostrophe that wasn’t rendering correctly in the text when doing an offline scan from the Windows Security app.
  • Removed an extra “be” in the text describing Smart Account Control in the Windows Security app.
  • Fixed an issue for certain language which could lead to question marks being displayed in the place of some of the text when upgrading to a new build.
  • If you have increased the text size under Settings > Accessibility > Text Size and launch setup from a Windows ISO while booted into your currently installed OS, the text displayed in the setup window will now be increased to match your preferences.
NOTE: Some fixes noted here in Insider Preview builds from the active development branch may make their way into the servicing updates for the released version of Windows 11 that became generally available on October 5th, 2021.

Known issues

[General]

  • Windows Insiders running Windows 10 who join the Dev or Beta Channels to get the latest builds may encounter a download error code 0xc8000402 while trying to download the latest build. As a workaround, please join the Release Preview Channel first, install Windows 11 from there (Build 22000.xxxx), and then switch to the Dev or Beta Channel to receive the latest Insider Preview build. This issue is understood and will be fixed in an upcoming build.
  • We’re investigating reports that a few Insiders have been experiencing an issue where explorer.exe is crashing repeatedly in a loop in the latest builds and unable to successfully load. This build includes another fix that may help some Insiders who were experiencing this.
  • When opening Group Policy editor, an Administrative Template error will pop up. Click “Ok” to dismiss and continue using Group Policy editor normally.

[Taskbar]

  • The taskbar doesn’t always automatically collapse after launching an app or tapping outside of the expanded taskbar on 2-in-1 devices.
  • Some areas of the OS are not yet tracking the height of the expanded taskbar on 2-in-1 devices so you may see overlapping components.

[File Explorer]

  • Using context menu options in File Explorer or on the desktop for rename, copy, paste, and delete may cause explorer.exe to crash when the context menu dismisses. As a workaround if you are impacted you will need to use other methods for the desired action, for example, pressing F2 to rename a selected file or folder.
  • The option to “Add to Favorites” does not show when right-clicking on a file on Home. As a workaround, this option can be accessed by choosing “Show more options”.

[Widgets]

  • The widgets board may not open successfully when using the gesture from the side of the screen. If you are impacted, please tap the Widgets icon in the taskbar for now instead.

[Network]

  • We’re investigating reports from Insiders about internet connectivity issues when certain VPNs are connected.

[Live captions]

  • Certain apps in full screen (e.g., video players) prevent live captions from being visible.
  • Certain apps positioned near the top of the screen and closed before live captions is run will re-launch behind the live captions window positioned at top. Use the system menu (ALT + Spacebar) while the app has focus to move the app’s window further down.

For developers

You can download the latest Windows Insider SDK at aka.ms/windowsinsidersdk.

SDK NuGet packages are now also flighting at NuGet Gallery | WindowsSDK which include:
These NuGet packages provide more granular access to the SDK and better integrate in CI/CD pipelines.

Media Player: Improved library experience and new video playback enhancements

Today, we are starting to roll out a new update to Media Player for Windows 11 (Version 11.2203.30.0) to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel.

The new album details view in the artist page in Media Player.
The new album details view in the artist page in Media Player.

You can now switch between two different views on the artist page when browsing your collection. One view shows you all the albums in a grid; the other shows all the songs, grouped by album. We’ve also added quick actions to albums, artists, videos, and playlists when you hover over them for quick selection and playback.

The video enhancements options dialog in the now playing view in Media Player.

There’s also now a handy context menu available if you right-click on the now playing screen. From here you can open new files without navigating to another page. You can also quickly access the album page and the artist page for your current song. We’ve added a new “video enhancements” feature as well, which allows you to adjust the brightness and contrast of your video.

In addition to these new features, we are continuing to work on improving the performance of Media Player for those of you with very large music libraries. Let us know what you think by sharing your feedback and suggestions in Feedback Hub (under Apps > Media Player).

About the Dev & Beta Channels [Updated!]

As a reminder, we are evolving the way we develop and release to Insiders with the Dev and Beta Channels now representing parallel development paths from our engineers. The Dev Channel will be a place where we will try out different concepts, incubate new ideas, and work on long lead items that may not get released to general customers. The Beta Channel will be the place we preview experiences that are closer to what we will ship to our general customers. However, this does not mean every feature we try out in the Beta Channel will ship. We encourage Insiders to read this blog post from last month that outlines the ways we’ll try things out with Insiders in the Dev and Beta Channels.

Now that the Dev and Beta Channels are receiving the same builds, the limited window has opened for Insiders to switch channels if you wish to do so by following these simple steps:
  1. Open Settings > Windows Update > Windows Insider Program.
  2. Select Choose your Insider settings.
  3. Select Beta Channel.
  4. The next time you receive an update, it will be for your new channel.

IMPORTANT: This window will close once we release builds with higher build numbers to the Dev Channel. If your device stays on the Dev Channel and receives a build that is a higher build number than what is in the Beta Channel, you will have to do a clean installation of the released version of Windows 11 on your device to switch to the Beta Channel.

These aren’t always stable builds, and sometimes you will see issues that block key activities or require workarounds. It is important to make sure you read the known issues listed in our blog posts as we document many of these issues with each flight.

The desktop watermark you see at the lower right corner of your desktop is normal for these pre-release builds.

Also have to turn off 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' in power management, Device Manager.
Thanks, will check this one...not sure if I have done anything to that switch. This could be it.

Hi folks
Seems a MEGA problem with this build (unsolvable for me and I'm not doing any more with it) is that the Store app doesn't get installed when you install this build with a local (off line account) from SCRATCH. I.E Clean install.

Then all sorts of horrors appear when you try and do something -- e,g "You will need a new app to use ...link" or similar.

And of course the Ms store won't install via powershell command or wsreset -1. And as per usual the Diagnostic tool says "No problems detected". --BTW has anyone on these boards EVER got anything sensible from those Ms diagnostic tools, !!!

I've done it again in English this time. So can't get access to WD dashboard. (Also this message come up also with a few other apps).




Screenshot_20220420_155104.png


Also if you go into gpedit.msc you get errors just starting it up .

I suspect that those who install new from scratch have these problems - while at least from WU you might get a useable system.

So even if by some fluke that they'd be proud of at the World Snooker championship taking place in the UK you get it all working I still wouldn't trust this build.

I'm sure on a lot of these things as people might know I tend to do exhaustive testing rather than at ist boot say "Great it's working",

Cheers
jimbo

Since 22598.1 my Macrium Image hangs on boot in viBoot - HyperV. I always do this to test if the image is good/bootable etc.
Haven't had this problem with previous Win11 Dev builds bkps.

Hi there

I've had it up to the eyeballs with this Stinking release.

I could have fixed a load of "Sensible commercial servers" and earned a slew of money compared with the time I've spent messing around with what should be a simple operation.

I can finally say on the fourth attempt that 22598.200 has properly installed, so far without complications, as a WU upgrade on top of 22593.100.

Well, it's not exactly the fourth attempt because of two differences that were not in play when I tried to install 22598.100 as an upgrade last week on top of 22593.100:

1) This build was 22598.200, and included a CU not in 22598.100
2) This week I was running Device Security, with Core Isolation on, which requires that both SVM and IOMMU be enabled in the bios, neither of which were enabled last week when had three consecutive failures with 22598.100

I had read a HUB report in which someone said he got 22598.100 to install by turning on SVM/IOMMU, but then if he disabled those, then 22598.100 refused to boot. He enabled them in his bios and the build booted fine. He regressed the build because he said those settings slowed down his games too much. I can't see much of a slowdown with them on with Core Isolation enabled, so I'll be keeping those settings enabled.

So far so good, and as always if something comes up I'll report it in this thread. Now time to report this to the HUB.

    Sweet, trouble-free system! How I love this 6900XT! Exceeds my expectations by quite a bit, btw.
Hi there
Against my better judgement I made one more attempt on this release -- I finally "Unjinxed it".

I went back to the last release I "Clean installed" successfully from this series which was build 22458.100 and then updated via WU.

Somehow on the later builds with clean install using a local account the store app fails or doesn't get installed which causes all sorts of problems like not being able to run some basic apps including the security (WD) dashboard - you get message -- Unable to run xxxxx - you need to obtain yyyyy from the Store !!!.

(I retrieved the old 22458 build from UUPDUMP).

On a VM I always enable IOMMU as a matter of course as I often play around with "Pass thru" of physical devices to the VM for better (usually by far) performance of the VM -- especially Video and HDD / SSD. If you run a Linux host even if IOMMU is enabled in the bios you need to specify at boot time the kernel parameter set iommu=on or whatever it is for your distro. (you need to specify AMD or Intel depending on your PC as well. Check the exact parameters required.

Screenshot_20220421_080834.png

I think though on Windows hosts IOMMU status is got from the systems BIOS directly but if it's specifiable in a VM config file then you should enable it and of course ensure its on in the BIOS.

Cheers
jimbo

Not sure what your Windows 11 clean install issues are, but latest builds clean install fine using offline account. All apps work great.
