Insider KB5020044 Windows 11 Insider Release Preview Build 22621.898 (22H2) - Nov. 17


  • Staff
UPDATE 1/17:


Hello Windows Insiders, today we’re releasing Windows 11 Build 22621.898 (KB5020044) to Insiders in the Release Preview Channel on Windows 11, version 22H2.

This update includes the following improvements:
  • New! We gave Microsoft OneDrive subscribers storage alerts on the Systems page in the Settings app. The alerts appear when you are close to your storage limit. You can also manage your storage and purchase additional storage, if needed.
  • New! We provided the full amount of storage capacity from all your OneDrive subscriptions. It also displays the total storage on the Accounts page in the Settings app.
  • New! We combined Windows Spotlight with Themes on the Personalization page. This makes it easier for you to discover and turn on the Windows Spotlight feature.
  • New! We added the organizational messages feature. With it, third-party companies can now provide content to their employees. They do not need to use the default behavior of Windows.
  • We fixed an issue that affected some modern applications. It stopped them from opening.
  • We fixed an issue that affected some devices that are managed by an enterprise. We improved the reliability of app installations for them.
  • We fixed an issue that affected daylight saving time (DST) in the Republic of Fiji. It canceled DST for 2022.
  • We fixed an issue that affected Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) authentication hardening. We will automatically raise the authentication level for all non-anonymous activation requests from DCOM clients to RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_PKT_INTEGRITY. This occurs if the authentication level is below Packet Integrity.
  • We fixed an issue that affected Unified Update Platform (UUP) on-premises customers. It removed the block that stopped them from getting offline language packs.
  • We fixed an issue that affected process creation. It failed to create security audits for it and other related audit events.
  • We fixed an issue that affected cluster name objects (CNO) or virtual computer objects (VCO). Password reset failed. The error message was, “There was an error resetting the AD password… // 0x80070005”.
  • We fixed an issue that affected transparency in layered windows. This occurred when you were in High Definition remote applications integrated locally (RAIL) mode.
  • We fixed an issue that affected certain applications. They stopped working. This occurred when you used keyboard shortcuts to change the input mode for the Japanese Input Method Editor (IME).
  • We fixed an issue that affected microphone streams that used the Listen To feature to route to the speaker endpoint. The microphone stopped working after you restarted the device.
  • We fixed an issue that might have affected applications that run on the Windows Lock Down Policy (WLDP). They might have stopped working.
  • We fixed an issue that affected Microsoft Defender when it is not the primary antivirus. Microsoft Defender failed to turn off passive mode. This issue occurred when you turned off Smart App Control (SAC).
  • We added .wcx to the list of Dangerous Extensions that some app control policies do not allow.
  • We fixed an issue that affected Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Automated investigation blocked live response investigations.
  • We fixed an issue that affected printing in landscape mode in Microsoft Edge. The print output was incorrect. This issue occurred when you used Microsoft Defender Application Guard.
  • We fixed an issue that caused File Explorer to stop working. This occurred when you closed context menus and menu items.
  • We fixed an issue that might have caused certain apps to stop responding. This occurred when you opened the Open File dialog.
  • We fixed an issue that sometimes affected File Explorer when you opened a file. Because of this, there was high CPU usage.
  • We fixed an issue that affected protocol activation of the Settings app. The app failed to open a page under the Accounts category.
  • We fixed an issue that affected a computer account. Use of non-standard characters stopped the cleanup of the Out of Box Experience (OOBE) accounts.
  • We fixed an issue that affected the CopyFile It might have sometimes returned error 317: ERROR_MR_MID_NOT_FOUND.
Thanks,
Windows Insider Program Team

Well this build gave me the right click task manager option on my taskbar. Wish it had the switch panel in the widget settings to turn off the "Show widgets on hover" option that build 22623.891 does for the taskbar weather icon but maybe the next one.

Same bug now on Task Manager with Build 22621.898 as they had already with Beta builds. They propagated the bug.
Also, there is no option in T.M. settings to change the color theme. That was added in 22623.891 but not in 22621.898. 😜🤷‍♂️
Black text on black background doesn't really cut it, nor does white text on white background. 🤣🤣🤣

Cannot use custom color theme in personalization, T.M. becomes unreadable with black on black or white on white. 😜🤣🤣

Works if the same color theme is used for both Windows and Apps.

There are two steps to get out from Beta.
1) Uninstall the enablement package for 22623 and go back to 22621
2) Delete the registry key below and reboot, it will be rebuilt after reboot.
Then you can stay out of insider or re-enroll in R.P. if you like instead of Beta.

Haven't done this since Windows 10, but you may be able to exit using a simple Registry modification.

Option is greyed out. I ended up going a reset. Now Insider states I'm in the queue for unenrollment.

Yes, they are, I couldn't tell you why you didn't see it there without seeing it myself, but there is always a simple explanation.

Since this update, vivetool is not working to allow me to select a more discreet search icon. I now permanently have the brain dead kiddie version that has to say search as part of the icon.

Why not put File Explorer in text next to its icon, Edge in text, Snipping tool in text etc. as we are clearly not clever enough to learn what icons mean. Why just pick on search icon?

As soon as the new search icon popped up I disabled it, I can't look at it lol. I search from the start menu usually anyhow.
