In addition to the new Dev and Canary builds, Microsoft today released an update to the Beta Channel users of Windows 11. Build 22624.1546 allows testing new features, and Build 22621.1546 has them disabled.
Changes and improvements in Build 22624.1546
- General:
- In a previous build, Microsoft has claimed that Content Adaptive Brightness Control (CABC) is now functional on desktop PCs. However, this statement is not entirely accurate. Also, the OEM must enable CABC on their laptops or 2-in-1 hybrid devices in order for the feature to be accessible.
- Settings:
- Improved search performance in Settings.
- Pressing the Print Screen key now opens the Snipping Tool by default. This setting can be turned off under Settings -> Accessibility -> Keyboard. If you previously changed this setting yourself, then its value will be saved.
- The Alt+Tab menu and Task View can now display up to 20 recent tabs from Microsoft Edge. You can manage this setting in the "Options" -> "Multitasking" section.
Fixes in build 22624.1546
- Input:
- Fixed an issue where components such as Touch Keyboard, Voice Input, and Emoji Panel would sometimes fail to launch.
- Fixed an issue resulting in Pinyin IMEs being hard to see in the settings popup when they had focus and a contrast theme enabled.
- Task Manager:
- We fixed an issue resulting in some details on the Performance page not displaying correctly until you resize the window or switch between pages.
Known Issues
- Search on the taskbar:
- If you have a Bing button in the search bar on your taskbar and you restart your computer, you may see an important event from the daily rotation for some time before the Bing button returns to its place.
- File Explorer:
- If keyboard shortcut hints are available in the context menu:
- [New] Shift + right-click on a file or folder does not open the "Show advanced options" menu.
- If keyboard shortcut hints are available in the context menu:
- Live Captions:
- On ARM64 devices, enhanced speech recognition support set on the Language and Region page will require restarting live captioning after changing the language in the subtitle menu.
- Some languages displayed on the Language and Region page support speech recognition (such as Korean), but do not yet support live captioning.
- When adding a language using the Language and Region page, the installation progress of language features may be hidden, and you will not see when the installation of Enhanced Speech Recognition (required for Live Captions) is completed. You can use "Language Options" to track progress. If this happens, there may be an unexpected delay before the Live Captions setup system detects the new language and allows you to continue.
- Subtitle display speed may be slower when using languages other than English. There is also no detection of languages other than English (United States), which means that incorrect subtitles may be displayed for speech other than the subtitle language.
