Insider KB5062673 Windows 11 Insider Beta build 26120.5733 (24H2) - Aug. 1


UPDATE 8/08:


 Windows Blogs:

Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26120.5733 (KB5062673) to the Beta Channel for Windows Insiders on Windows 11, version 24H2.

Changes in Beta Channel builds and updates are documented in two buckets: new features, improvements, and fixes that are being gradually rolled out for Insiders who have turned on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available (via Settings > Windows Update*) and then new features, improvements, and fixes rolling out to everyone in the Beta Channel. For more information, see the Reminders section at the bottom of this blog post.


Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on*

[File Explorer]

  • For Windows Insiders signed in with a work or school account (Entra ID), File Explorer will begin showing people icons under the “Activity” column on File Explorer Home and on “Recommended” at the top of File Explorer Home. When you hover or click over a people icon, it will display the Live Persona Card for that person from Microsoft 365.


    Activity column under File Explorer Home showing people icons highlighted in a red box.
    Activity column under File Explorer Home showing people icons highlighted in a red box.

[Settings]

  • We are removing the “Manage or clear your Bing search history” entry from Settings > Privacy & security > Search under Search history. You can manage your Bing search history directly through the Privacy dashboard, accessible via the Privacy resources link under Related settings on that settings page.

Fixes gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on*

[Start menu]

  • Fixed an issue which was causing the Start menu to crash for some Insiders in the last couple builds.

[Taskbar & System Tray]

  • Fixed an issue where If you accidentally clicked down and slid your mouse on the taskbar preview thumbnail, clicking it would stop working.

[Lock screen]

  • Fixed an underlying crash which could result in widgets on the lock screen not displaying in the last couple builds – you also couldn’t add new ones.

[Input]

  • Fixed an issue in the previous flight which was leading to multi-finger touchpad gestures not working in the previous flight.

Known issues

[General]

  • Some Windows Insiders may experience a rollback trying to install this update with a 0x80070005 in Windows Update. We’re working on a fix for Windows Insiders impacted. If you are impacted, using Settings > System > Recovery > “Fix issues using Windows update” may resolve the issue.
  • [NEW] We’re working on the fix for an underlying issue with dao360.dll resulting in some apps crashing after the previous flight.

[Start menu]

  • [NEW] For Insiders with the new Start menu, you may unexpectedly see a category generated for every letter of the alphabet with blank icons, when opening the Start menu in the “All” section after updating to this build. Switching to a different view and then switching back should resolve the issue.

[File Explorer]

  • [NEW] In dark mode, the red color used for a low space drive in This PC may be unexpectedly light colored in this build. Some of the other colors may also be incorrect, including that black is used for space remaining instead of a more visible color.

[Click to Do (Preview)]

The following known issues will be fixed in future updates to Windows Insiders:
  • Windows Insiders on AMD or Intel®-powered Copilot+ PCs may experience long wait times on the first attempt to perform intelligent text actions in Click to Do after a new build or model update.

[Live Captions]

  • Live captions may crash when attempting to use live translation on a Copilot+ PC.

[Xbox Controllers]

  • Some Insiders are experiencing an issue where using their Xbox Controller via Bluetooth is causing their PC to bugcheck. Here is how to resolve the issue. Open Device Manager by searching for it via the search box on your taskbar. Once Device Manager is open, click on “View” and then “Devices by Driver”. Find the driver named “oemXXX.inf (XboxGameControllerDriver.inf)” where the “XXX” will be a specific number on your PC. Right-click on that driver and click “Uninstall”.

Reminders for Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel

  • Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel on Windows 11, version 24H2 will receive updates based on Windows 11, version 24H2 via an enablement package (Build 26120.xxxx).
  • Updates delivered to the Beta Channel are in a format that offers a preview of enhancements to servicing technology on Windows 11, version 24H2. To learn more, see Introducing Windows 11 checkpoint cumulative updates | Windows IT Pro Blog.
  • Many features in the Beta Channel are rolled out using Controlled Feature Rollout technology, starting with a subset of Insiders and ramping up over time as we monitor feedback to see how they land before pushing them out to everyone in this channel.
  • For Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel who want to be the first to get features gradually rolled out to you, you can turn ON the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available via Settings > Windows Update*. Over time, we will increase the rollouts of features to everyone with the toggle turned on. Should you keep this toggle off, new features will gradually be rolled out to your PC over time once they are ready.
  • Features and experiences included in these builds may never get released as we try out different concepts and get feedback. Features may change over time, be removed, or replaced and never get released beyond Windows Insiders. Some of these features and experiences could show up in future Windows releases when they’re ready.
  • Some features in active development we preview with Windows Insiders may not be fully localized and localization will happen over time as features are finalized. As you see issues with localization in your language, please report those issues to us via Feedback Hub.
  • Please note that some accessibility features may not work with features like Recall and Click to Do while in preview with Windows Insiders.
  • Because the Dev and Beta Channels represent parallel development paths from our engineers, there may be cases where features and experiences show up in the Beta Channel first.
  • Check out Flight Hub for a complete look at what build is in which Insider channel.
Thanks,
Amanda & Brandon

Today I discovered the issue with the taskbar opening behind open windows via a MS Ignite post. Turns out enabling BT causes the issue and disabling it restores normal taskbar behavior. I filed a feedback hub report but it usually takes lots of similar reports for them to take notice. Guess I won't be using my AT BT headphones until they fix it. I was pulling my hair out trying to figure it out and I don't have a lot left to pull out these days. :unsure: :LOL:

So, you have gone bald. I don't have much hair left but for different reasons. Thinking about going back to Win 10 or stay on stable build Win 11.

Not yet but every time I go to the hair salon I see more scalp. My stylist always says the nicest things about my hair but I can't deny what I see with my own eyes. Getting OT I have a laptop in the dev and its running the best it ever has.

My primary laptop has dropped back to the RP and my desktop remains on the beta. I was about to wipe it out again over the taskbar issue as I just did a clean install in June so finding the BT connection saved me for now..

I installed this compilation thinking that there would be a picture of the day in the search engine, but unfortunately it's still not there, and I see from your photos that it is there for you, and I don't understand why it's not there for me.

Why do we need beta 26120?
DEV = 25H2
Beta = 24H2

MS did the same with 24H2 which strangely went to RP channel while Beta stayed on 23H2 for a while

Why do we need beta 26120?
Probably because 24H2 is one of the current official versions of Windows 11 supported by MS until 13 October 2026. Users like me who aren't interested just yet in going to 25H2 want to see new features and fixes added to 24H2.

We know that next retail update (25H2) will be 26200 which is now in DEV channel
Why do we need beta 26120?
Until 25H2 reaches public release globally, after that Beta will move to 25H2. The current situation now 24H2 is the official public version and hence Beta channel will stay at 24H2.

Since I've enabled most of the 25H2 features already on my Beta and RP builds including the new start menu options I'm not in a big hurry for 25H2 as I'm practically running it already.
