Insider KB5077223 Windows 11 Insider Beta build 26220.7859 (25H2) - Feb. 17


UPDATE 2/20:


 Windows Insider Blog:

Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26220.7859 (KB5077223) to the Beta Channel.

Changes in Beta Channel builds and updates are documented in two buckets: new features, and improvements (including notable 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, and improvements (including notable fixes) rolling out to everyone in the Beta Channel. For more information, see the Reminders section at the bottom of this blog post.


New features gradually being rolled out with toggle on*

[Account Settings]

Microsoft 365 Family subscribers will find an option to upgrade to a different 365 plan on the Accounts page within the Settings app. Users can also remove the upgrade option by turning off suggested content in settings.

New upgrade prompt on the Accounts pageNew upgrade prompt on the Accounts page

Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Settings > Settings Homepage.

Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out with toggle on*

[Taskbar]

  • Improved reliability of showing app icons in the system tray when the taskbar was set to autohide.

[File Explorer]

  • Addressed an issue where all File Explorer open windows and tabs might unexpectedly jump to Desktop or Home.

[Nearby Sharing]

  • Improved the reliability of sending larger files using nearby sharing.

[Settings]

  • Improved reliability of configuring options in Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Wheel.

Reminders for Windows Insiders in the Beta Channel

  • Updates are based on Windows 11, version 25H2 via an enablement package (Build 26220.7859).
  • Many features 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 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.
  • Check out Flight Hub for a complete look at what build is in which Insider channel.
Thanks,
Windows Insider Program Team

Hidden in 26220.7859: more changes to Settings > System > About. The additions from late last year are mostly being reverted (except for the Storage link in related), so top cards are back.

Storage and graphics card info is also being added under device info, like in Win10.

To enable the changes yourself:

Return of top cards, most UI changes reverted, storage info under device info:

vivetool /enable /id:60597402 (AboutPage_TopCard_V2), requires 59265307 as well

Just an added bit to this, these vivetool codes make the changes on the latest RP build 26200.7918 as well and as an added bonus it removes the OneDrive Nag Ad from the Home Screen. At least on my machines since OneDrive isn't installed on them.
