Windows 11 Build 26120.2122 (KB5044374) is now available to Insiders in the Dev channel. The key changes include a new version of Snipping Tool that can extract tables from captures, improved taskbar preview thumbnails, slightly updated Task Manager, and several fixes.
Advertisеment
Note: Some of the new features are coming only to users with the "Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available" option enabled in Settings > Windows Update.
Snipping Tool Update
A new version of the Snipping Tool (version 11.2409.22.0 and above) is available to Insiders in the Canary and Dev channels, bringing with it a new Copy as Table feature.
The existing text functions, such as copying text from an image and redacting sensitive information, have been supplemented with the Copy as Table option. This allows you to easily copy structured table data into an email, document, or spreadsheet. To do this, take a screenshot of the table, select Text Actions, and then Copy as Table. Now you can paste the structured table data where you want.
Note: The current version of the feature works best with screenshots that contain only one table.
For Insiders with the option enabled
Changes and improvements
General
This update includes a small number of improvements and fixes designed to improve the overall experience of the operating system.
Taskbar and system tray
Microsoft has updated the window thumbnails that appear when you hover over apps on the taskbar. It has also improved the animation that appears when thumbnails appear on the screen.
Task Manager
- The design of the Disconnect and Logout dialogs has been updated to support dark theme and text scaling.

Fixes
Fixed a major issue where some users would experience a black screen for a few seconds when using the Alt + Tab shortcut.
For all insiders
Fixes
- Fixed an issue resulting in some Insiders receiving error code 0x800f0825 when attempting to install new Dev Channel builds.
- Remote Desktop Gateway Service : Fixed an issue that could cause the Remote Desktop Gateway service to stop responding. This occurs when the service uses RPC over HTTP, causing the connection to clients to be lost.
Known issues
