Microsoft has released Windows 11 Build 22635.5015 (version 23H2, KB5052089) for Windows Insider program participants in the Beta channel. It adds the trim video option to the Snipping Tool, a new Emoji button to the taskbar, and includes several fixes.
Advertisеment
Snipping Tool Update
Microsoft has started rolling out an updated version of the Snipping Tool (version 11.2501.7.0) to Insiders in the Beta and Release Preview Channels. Previously, it was only available in the Dev and Canary channels. The new version adds the ability to change the length of a recorded video by changing the start and end time of the video. This allows you to quickly remove unnecessary fragments from a video.
To try out the feature, make a new screen recording using the Snipping Tool. Then open it in the Snipping Tool app and tap the new Trim button at the top of the window to enter editing mode. Use the handles to define a new start and end time for the video. Tap Apply to save your changes. You can re-enter editing mode to undo or adjust any trimmed portions.
Changes and improvements
Input
- Microsoft is testing a new way to open the Emoji Panel in Windows 11. The developers have added a new icon to the notification area of the taskbar. It will help you quickly express yourself using emoji, GIFs, kaomoji, and more across all Windows apps and interfaces. The keyboard shortcut Win + . still works, and information about it is included in the tooltip for the new icon. If you want, you can hide this icon by right-clicking on it and going to the taskbar settings page.

Fixes
File Explorer
- This update includes expanded support for text scaling in File Explorer, the Open and Save dialog boxes, and the file copy dialog box. Text scaling is configured in Settings > Ease of Access > Text Size.
- Fixed an issue resulting in the Home page in File Explorer crashing for several Insiders in the previous flight.
Window management
- Fixed an issue where the snap layout panel at the top of the screen had non-rounded corners on the side closest to the edge of the screen.
Settings
- Fixed an issue where in some cases the number of storage devices was displayed incorrectly in Settings > System > About.
Other
- Fixed an issue for Insiders using the OneDrive file quick resume feature that could result in the spinning mouse cursor icon frequently appearing.
Known issues
Start Menu
These issues only apply to the new Grid and Categories views:
- Sometimes after installing an app, there is a delay in displaying app icons in the Table and Category views.
- When you right-click an application, the Start Menu Settings context menu appears for a moment before the application's context menu appears.
- Applications related to Windows tools are broken into folders rather than being in one place.
File Explorer
- Engineers are investigating an issue where File Explorer closes very slowly for some Insiders when they click the X button in the title bar. This issue may also affect other buttons in the title bar.
All the changes in this update are first coming to Insiders with the "Get the latest updates as soon as they're available" toggle turned on.
