UPDATE 9/26:


 Windows Blogs:

UPDATE 9/22: Hello Windows Insiders, today we’re releasing Windows 11 Build 22621.2361 (KB5030310) to Insiders in the Release Preview Channel on Windows 11, version 22H2. We’re also beginning to roll out some of the new features announced yesterday by Yusuf, including Copilot in Windows (in preview)*, Modernized File Explorer, new text authoring experiences to voice access and new natural voices in Narrator, and Windows Backup. A more complete list of features will be shared next week on Sept. 26th.


Turn on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available to get new features rolled out to you.
Turn on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available to get new features rolled out to you.

If you have the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available turned ON via Settings > Windows Update BEFORE installing Build 22621.2361, you will also get Windows Configuration Update (KB5030509) installed at the same time you install Build 22621.2361 in a single reboot. Note only the update for Build 22621.2361 will show during install on the Windows Update settings page. But after reboot, the Windows Configuration Update will be shown in your Update History. This Windows Configuration Update is how we’re enabling new features via Controlled Feature Rollout (CFR) technology.

Should you install Build 22621.2361 without turning on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available before, you can simply turn it on, and Windows Configuration Update (KB5030509) will be downloaded on your PC where you will be asked to reboot. Should you install build 22621.2361 and keep the toggle off, the new features will be gradually rolled out to your device over time.

Thanks,
Windows Insider Program Team

*Copilot in Windows (in preview) will start to release to a select set of global markets. It is our intention to continue to broaden availability over time.




OLD 9/14: Hello Windows Insiders, today we’re releasing Windows 11 Build 22621.2359 (KB5030310) to Insiders in the Release Preview Channel on Windows 11, version 22H2.

This update includes the following features and improvements:
  • New! This update completes the work to comply with the GB18030-2022 requirements. It removes and remaps characters for Microsoft Wubi input and Microsoft Pinyin U-mode input. You can no longer enter character codepoints that are not supported. All the required codepoints are up to date.
  • New! This update introduces websites to the Recommended section of the Start menu. These websites will be personalized for you and come from your browsing history. This gives you quick access to the websites that are important to you. You can remove any website URL from the Recommended section using the shortcut menu. To turn off the feature, go to Settings > Personalization > Start. You can adjust settings for all recommended content on the Start menu on this Settings page. Commercial customers can manage this feature using a policy.

  • This update supports daylight saving time (DST) changes in Greenland.
  • This update changes the spelling of Ukraine’s capital from Kiev to Kyiv.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects account lockout event 4625. The format of the event is wrong in the ForwardedEvents log. This occurs when an account name is in the user principal name (UPN) format.
  • This update affects the Key Distribution Center (KDC) and user security identifiers (SID). KDC now reads the user SID from the Subject Alternative Name (SAN) of a certificate. Because of this, mobile device management (MDM) providers can use offline templates to fill in the user SID. To learn more, see KB5014754.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Microsoft Excel. It stops responding when you try to share a file as a PDF in Microsoft Outlook.
  • This update addresses an issue that is related to changes in the forwarding of events.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects events that have a TAB character. The events do not render, or you cannot forward them.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects XPath queries on FileHash and other binary fields. It stops them from matching values in event records.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects an Application Virtualization (App-V) environment. Copy operations within it stop working. This occurs after you install the April 2023 update.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Microsoft Print to PDF. It uses the metadata for the name you sign in with as the author of a printed PDF. It should use the display name instead.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects some USB printers. Microsoft Defender stops them from printing.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC). AppID Tagging policies might greatly increase how long it takes your device to start up.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the Korean touch keyboard It completes the first character in the search box on the taskbar. This is not expected.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects IMEPad. It stops working. This occurs when you enter end-user-defined characters (EUDC).
  • This update addresses an issue that affects sleep mode. After you resume from sleep, a blank window appears that has the title “Windows Input Experience.”
  • This update addresses an issue that affects Remote Apps. The display of some elements is not aligned correctly.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the search box tooltip. It does not appear in the correct position.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the search button. It disappears when you interact with the search flyout box.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC). It has a handle leak. Because of this, the system runs out of memory.
  • This update addresses an issue that might make Windows stop responding. This might occur if you use Microsoft OneDrive files that are compressed by NTFS.
  • This update addresses an issue that might cause a user-mode memory leak. It might occur when you call CopyFile() or MoveFile().
  • This update addresses an issue that affects application compatibility. It is related to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
  • This update addresses an issue that affects external binding. It fails. This occurs after you install Windows updates dated May 2023 or later. Because of this, there are issues that affect LDAP queries and authentication.
Thanks,
Windows Insider Program Team

Correct. It was an option to be disabled before the KB5030310 (Copilot) update. I rolled back for now and paused that update.However, the dropshasow cannot be disabled from some Win themes whther light or dark mode. I ended up saving my picture to use as a background, not a theme, and could disable the dropshadow. Unfortunately, the KB5030305 causes this not not be possible. I paused the update.
I really don't have any problem with dropshadow behavior, I think it does what it was meant for, now it does it automatically.
One less setting to worry about. 😂😂😂🤷‍♂️

I don't like the dropshadow. I have never had a dropshadow on my desktop icons labels. It looks blurry and hard to read. I was able to easily disable no matter the theme or mode before Win11. Since Win11 update last year I can only disable if I use my own background. That was great until this update. Now not at all. Unless I don't install the update. I also noticed with the update my machine reboots with a different background with the desktop icons labels showing dropshadow. I switched to my previous background and select to not show dropshadow but it still shows.

I paused the update.
Because of the icon shadow problem and articles I read about it on the Internet (see for instance this story), I decided to make use of the possibility to postpone updates over a longer period as described by @Brink in this topic:

Hopefully in the meantime Microsoft will listen to complaining customers (although I have no good feeling about that).

The problem with dropshadows has been cured by the update KB5031455!

I would like to report that after updating:
KB5031455 2023-10 Preview cumulatieve update Win11 22H2 x64
The desktop icon texts are having no more shadows (if you set them to be without).

I tested that on my VirtualBox Win11 22H2 (Home) system:
- KB5031354 2023-10 Cumulatieve update Win11 22H2 x64
brings shadows on desktop icon texts.
- KB5031455 2023-10 Preview cumulatieve update Win11 22H2 x64
no more shadows on desktop icon texts.
I did not change the settings in the performance options before the first update and did not before or after the second update!

So soon on my normal (Win11 Pro 22H2) system I will switch off the option to postpone updates for a long time and do the normal updates again.
It appearantly was a normal bug in the update KB5031354 and not a purposely change of MS.
Of which they never mentioned a word in 'known and resolved issues' with update KB5031354...
