Changes and improvements​

• This update includes a small number of minor bug fixes and improvements.

[Voice Access]​

• We're introducing Voice Isolation, a new option in Voice Access that helps it focus on your voice, even when others are speaking nearby. Whether you're in a shared office, an open floor plan, or at home with family around, Voice Isolation filters out other voices and background noise so Voice Access can better understand you. All processing happens privately on your device.
• Getting started
  Voice Access now offers three speech recognition modes under Voice Access settings > Improve speech recognition:
  • Voice Isolation — Filters out other speakers and background noise (one-time voice setup required).
  • Remove background noise only — Filters out non-speech sounds like typing or door slams. No additional setup needed.
  • No filtering — Default microphone input with no additional processing.

[Accessibility]​

• We're introducing screen tint, a new accessibility setting that applies a color overlay across your entire display, softening its intensity so it's easier on your eyes throughout the day. If bright, saturated screens leave you with tired or sensitive eyes by the end of a long session, screen tint can help.

  Screenshot showing UI for screen tint in Accessibility, with color presets and a strength slider.
• To get started, open Settings > Accessibility (or press Win + U) and look for screen tint under the Vision section. From there you can:
  • Pick from six preset colors or choose a custom color of your own.
  • Adjust the tint strength slider from a subtle wash to full intensity.
• Night light warms your display to reduce blue light that can interfere with sleep. Screen tint reduces overall screen intensity to ease eye fatigue and light sensitivity during the day. They tackle different problems and you can use both at the same time, one working on warmth and the other on intensity.
• Note that turning on screen tint will disable color filters, and vice versa. If you currently rely on color filters, you may need to keep screen tint turned off.

[Other]​

• If you were experiencing a cyclical explorer.exe crash after the previous flight (which may have looked like the screen or taskbar was blinking and repeatedly refreshing), that should be resolved after updating to this build.
• Fixed an issue causing the Energy Saver quick setting to show twice for some Insiders in recent flights.
• Fixed an issue resulting in the audio volume being unexpectedly muted on certain devices in recent flights.

Known Issues​

[Reset PC]​

• [Fixed] Resetting your PC may get stuck when using "Reset this PC." To complete the reset successfully, choose the cloud download option (Cloud PBR) instead of local.

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.
