UPDATE 6/19:


 Windows Blogs:

[UPDATE 5/27] We are releasing Build 26100.4202 (KB5058499) today which is a small update that addresses some issues with the update itself.

Hello Windows Insiders, today we’re releasing Windows 11 Build 26100.4188 (KB5058499) to Insiders in the Release Preview Channel on Windows 11, version 24H2 (Build 26100).

Below is a summary of the new features and improvements included as part of this update separated into two sections: gradual rollout and normal rollout. The bold text within the brackets indicates the item or area of the change we are documenting.

Gradual rollout

The following features and improvements might not be available to all users because they will roll out gradually. Text bolded in brackets indicate the area of the change being documented.
  • [Click to Do (preview)]
    • New! We’re introducing more intelligent text actions to enhance your Click to Do experience even further on AMD and Intel™-powered Copilot+ PCs. Use WIN key + mouse-click or WIN + Q to select a text block and then drag to select the text that you want. You’ll see options to Summarize, Create a bulleted list, or to help you Rewrite your text, so it sounds more causal, more formal, or more polished.
    • New!1Ask Copilot is a new action within Click to Do. When you highlight text or an image, Click to Do offers the Ask Copilot Selecting it opens Microsoft Copilot with your content in the prompt box. You can send the selected text or image directly to the Copilot app to complete your prompt.

    • New! If your PC has pen and inking capabilities, you can configure the shortcut button to open Click to Do with a single-click, double-click, or press and hold through Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Pen & Windows Ink.

    • New! You can add Click to Do as one of the four apps in the pen menu on your PC. If all slots for the pen menu are full, you might need to replace one app with Click to Do in the menu settings.
    • New! Click to Do can now perform intelligent text actions in Spanish and French.
  • [Copilot]
    • New! You can open Copilot on Windows with Win + C. You can personalize your Copilot key and Win + C experience at any time with the existing “Customize Copilot key on keyboard” under Settings > Personalization > Text input. For Enterprise users, see Updated Windows and Microsoft 365 Coplot Chat experience.

    • New! To press to talk with Copilot on Windows, hold the Copilot key or Win + C for two seconds if you don’t have a Copilot key. Press Esc or stay silent for a few seconds to end the call. You can also use Alt + Spacebar to talk with Copilot on Windows. This feature enables you to interact with Copilot using your voice, providing instant responses while you continue your tasks.

  • [Cross Device Resume] New! Seamlessly resume working on OneDrive files from your phone (iOS and Android) on your Windows 11 PC with a single click. With this feature, you will get a notification asking you if you want to pick up where you left off editing a OneDrive file like a Word doc that you last viewed or edited on your phone within a 5-minute time window preceding unlocking your PC.

  • [Energy saver] New! IT admins can manage Energy saver settings on Windows 11 PCs through group policies and MDM configurations using Microsoft Intune. This feature helps extend battery life by limiting background activity, dimming the screen, and contributing to environmental sustainability. To configure the policy, go to the Local Group Policy under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Power Management > Energy Saver Settings and “Enable Energy Saver to Always Be On.”

  • [Graphics] New! Manage your PC’s HDR features under Settings > System > Display > Updates include: A clearer label for “Use HDR” that better explains which media types are supported. The ability to stream HDR video even when HDR is turned off. On PCs with Dolby Vision, a new toggle lets you turn Dolby Vision on or off independently of HDR—giving you more control over your viewing experience.

  • [Narrator] New! Enhance digital accessibility with AI-powered image descriptions in Narrator on Copilot+ PCs. This feature provides detailed descriptions of images, charts, and graphs for blind and low-vision users. To turn on Narrator, press Ctrl + Windows key + Enter or search for ‘Narrator’ in Windows search. Use Narrator key + Ctrl + D for image descriptions.
  • [Improved Windows Search]
    • New! As part of improving Windows Search on Copilot+ PCs, we’re beginning to roll out the ability to type a setting you’re looking for in the Windows search box on your taskbar without needing to remember the exact setting name. For example, you can use your own words to find settings like “change my theme” or “about my PC”. You no longer need to remember the exact setting name you are looking for.
    • New! In the European Economic Area (EEA), you can now find cloud photos using improved Windows Search on the taskbar. Describe the photos, like ‘European castles’ or ‘summer picnics,’ in the search box. Photos from the cloud and your Copilot+ PC appear in the search results. Exact keyword matches within your cloud files will also show up. This feature is gradually rolling out to Snapdragon-powered Copilot+ PCs, with support for AMD and Intel-powered PCs coming soon.
  • [Search on Taskbar] New! Improved support for web search providers in Windows Search for the EEA, including with increased discoverability.
  • [Settings]
    • New! Find answers to commonly asked questions about your PC and Windows 11 in the new FAQs section on the Settings > System > About It covers topics like system setup, performance, and compatibility – all in one place.

    • New! The dialog to rename your printer under Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners now matches the Windows 11 look and feel.
    • New! Mouse settings are now easier to access under Settings > Accessibility > Mouse and Mouse pointer and touch, with no need to open Control Panel. You’ll find updated icons for Mouse pointer speed and Enhance mouse pointer precision, plus options for customizing the mouse indicator, pointer trails, and hover activation time.
  • [Taskbar]
    • New! Admins can configure taskbar policies so users can unpin specific apps, ensuring they are not repinned during the next policy refresh. To turn on this feature, use the new PinGeneration option.

    • Fixed: When using Tab and Shift + Tab to move keyboard focus around the taskbar, if you go backwards at least once you can get keyboard focus stuck on the taskbar frame, which could lead screen readers to just say “pane”.
    • Fixed: Keyboard focus may be unexpectedly set to widgets in the taskbar on login, which can make widgets invoke
  • [Voice access]
    • New! Voice access now includes an in-product experience that highlights new features and improvements. Use the settings menu to open or dismiss it anytime.
    • New! You can find voice access under Accessibility in Quick Settings at the lower-right corner of your screen near the clock. To open Quick Settings, select the network, volume, or battery icon.

    • Fixed: Voice access may freeze with error “working on it” when dictating.
  • [Voice typing] New! You control the profanity filter. When you turn it on, it masks profanity with asterisks. When you turn it off, words appear as spoken. To change the setting, open voice typing (Win + H), select the settings icon, and turn on the Filter profanity switch.

  • [Windows Share]
    • New! Make last-minute edits such as cropping, rotating, and adding filters to images shared through the Windows Share window.

    • New! When you drag a local file from File Explorer or your desktop, a tray appears at the top of your screen. Drop the file into a suggested app or select More… to open the Windows share window.

    • New! Add apps that support sharing directly to the right-click menu for local files in File Explorer or on the desktop.

Interestingly, if you open and close any folder in Start menu repeatedly while in Grid mode, the Start menu gets flooded with duplicate icons of the contents of the folder...perhaps for my case I guess.

Something new I have noticed in this build, after starting my machine from a cold start, and the desktop appears, there is a white rectangle around the Start Button, with text to the right saying Start. This never used to happen. Odd thing is it appears on my second monitor not my main monitor.

Showed up late in the evening, took some time to install... however, good news is that SFC and DISM scans found no corrupt files or violations, plus (at least in my case) with this release the DISM scan was much faster from start to finish. :thumbsup:

Could you show a picture? Do you mean something like this?

I got this on one machine. This one has only one monitor.
I have seen this happening before on other machines, but only right after a restart. Then it disappears after I click on it.
Seems to indicate the function in focus, if I use the Tab and the arrow keys on the taskbar, it moves the white square on the different icons.
I don't see any start text on the right though; it shows above the white square. 😖🤷‍♂️

I got this on one machine. This one has only one monitor.
I have seen this happening before on other machines, but only right after a restart. Then it disappears after I click on it.
I never found an explanation about this. 😵‍💫😂😂
I don't see any text on the right though. 😖🤷‍♂️
I've seen it too at startup and reboot , started happening after the last patch Tuesday

I found the explanation of that white square enclosure. It indicates the selected icon in focus.
It changes using the tab key and/or the arrow keys on the keyboard while sitting on the taskbar. 🤣🤣
The tab key moves to the different sections of the taskbar while the arrow keys move to the next icon in the selected section.
Actually, it is nothing new, not related to any recent change. 😎

Seems to indicate the function in focus, if I use the Tab and the arrow keys on the taskbar, it moves the white square on the different icons.
I don't see any start text on the right though; it shows above the white square. 😖🤷‍♂️

Yes that's it.
Well, looks like that is not a new thing, people have been reporting it long time ago.
See a thread in the link below. 😎🤷‍♂️

There are more similar reports on the web.

Post#22 explains how it works. It is not clear why it may show up on its own after a sign on.
