Insider Windows 11 Insider Canary build 29550.1000 - March 13


UPDATE 3/20:


 Windows Insider Blog:

Hello Windows Insiders, today we’re releasing Windows Insider Preview Build 29550.1000 to the Windows 11 Insider Canary Channel on the optional 29500 build series.

Insiders can take an optional update under Settings > Windows Update > Advanced options > Optional updates which will move your device from the 28000 build series to a new active development 29500 build series. Please note, because of the focus on platform development for this path, you may notice a temporary loss in some features that you have today. These features will return to this new active development build.



What’s new in Canary Build 29550.1000

Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out with toggle on*

  • This update includes platform changes in moving to a new active development build.

[Emoji]

  • The Emoji 16.0 release introduces a small thoughtfully curated set of new emojis, one from each major category. Each emoji carries timeless symbolism and practical versatility. These new emojis now appear in the emoji panel.

[Camera Settings]

  • You can control pan and tilt for supported cameras in the Settings app. The controls appear under Settings> Bluetooth & devices > Cameras, in the “Basic settings” section for your selected camera.

[Power]

  • Changes to global power settings (for example, Display, Sleep, Hibernate timeouts, Power/Sleep button, and lid close actions) from Settings are now applied to all power plans. This should help improve persistence of chosen settings.

[File Explorer]

  • You can now use voice typing (Windows key plus H) when renaming files in File Explorer.

[Settings]

  • Improved performance of loading Settings Home.
  • Improved Settings reliability when navigating to Privacy & Security.
  • Improved reliability of updating necessary components when prompted under System > Advanced > File Explorer.
  • Improved reliability of configuring custom tools in Bluetooth & Devices > Wheel.

[Nearby Sharing]

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

[Other]

  • Improved reliability of running sfc/scannow.

Reminders for Windows Insiders in the Canary Channel

  • These builds can be unstable and may be released with limited documentation. Join Windows Insider – Get early access to Windows 11 features & updates
  • The builds we release to the Canary Channel represent the latest platform changes early in the development cycle and should not be seen as matched to any specific release of Windows. 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.
  • Many features in the Canary Channel are rolled out using Control 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.
  • The desktop watermark shown at the lower right corner of the desktop is normal for Windows Insider pre-release builds.
  • Some features may show up in the Dev and Beta Channels first before showing up in the Canary Channel.
  • 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.
  • To get off the Canary Channel, a clean install of Windows 11 will be required.
  • Check out Flight Hub for a complete look at what build is in which Insider channel.
Thanks,
Windows Insider Program Team

Everything seems fine..., except the modern Run dialog is still dickered.
Still won't accept special characters, such as % for %temp%
Crashes immediately.

Microsoft's Release Note is inaccurate. Some features haven't even been implemented, they are still not seen new Emoji in version 26200.8037.

Build 29550.1000, like the previous 29531.1000 fails to boot on Dell XPS 8930 and Dell XPS 8940.
I can boot and install on a GMKtec mini, but not on those 2 Dell desktops.

Here is the screenshot of the problem happening booting the updated Windows system and the same issue with the USB installation media with these new Canary Builds. 29531 AND 29550. What am I supposed to do? Throw away the 2 DELL desktops?
This is not acceptable.
Microsoft and Dell need to fix this incompatibility issue with Secure Boot signatures. 😵‍💫🤬

I wonder if there's some hidden policy flag stuck inside your Dells' UEFI settings. Try this, since it can't hurt:

1. Disable Secure Boot.
2. Boot Windows.
3. Restart Windows again (the goal is to clear any pending policy with Secure Boot disabled).
4. Enable Secure Boot.
