Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out*
- This update includes a small set of general improvements and fixes that improve the overall experience for Insiders running this build on their PCs.
[Windows Update]
- Fixed an underlying issue resulting in some Insiders on Arm64 PCs not being able to upgrade to the latest builds and automatically rolling back. As a reminder, 0xc1900101 is a generic error code that can have multiple root causes. If you continue having issues, file a new piece of feedback.
[Emoji]
We're adding support for Emoji 17.0. This includes new emoji such as distorted face, fight cloud, and hairy creature. To try the new emoji, press the Windows key plus Period (.) to open the emoji panel and insert them from there.
Examples of new emoji added with Emoji 17.0.
As part of this effort, we've also made some slight adjustments to the design of some of our current emoji to improve consistency across platforms. This includes the saluting face, face with peeking eye, goose, lotus, and kissing cat emoji.
Before-and-after examples of updated emoji designs.
[Touchpad]
- Fixed an issue causing touchpad zoom gestures to not work correctly in certain apps after the latest updates.
[Remote Desktop]
- Fixed an underlying issue causing some Insiders to see graphics card error 0x11 when attempting to use Remote Desktop in the latest updates.
[Run]
- Improved Run reliability for Insiders using the modern Run dialog.
[Taskbar]
- Improved reliability of loading the system tray area of the taskbar.
[Network]
- Fixed an issue resulting in some Insiders seeing an unexpected "The service to detect this status is disabled" message when opening Network and Sharing Center after the latest updates.
- Fixed an underlying issue resulting in some Insiders not being able to connect to certain Wi-Fi types after the latest updates. File a new piece of feedback if you continue experiencing issues, including a recording of the issue if possible.
[Settings]
- The Bluetooth quick settings page is now navigable using gamepad input.
[Known issues]
- We're investigating an issue where VMware Workstation Pro 17.6.4 may display a blank window when reopening a virtual machine after it has been created and closed. We are working on a fix and will provide an update in a future build.
- We're also aware of and investigating reports of VMWare devices green screening
Reminder for Windows Insiders in the Experimental (Future Platforms) channel
These builds can be unstable and might be released with limited documentation.
The builds released to these channels represent the latest platform changes early in the development cycle and shouldn't be seen as matched to any specific release of Windows. Features and experiences included in these builds might never get released as we try out different concepts and get feedback. Features might 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 are rolled out using Controlled Feature Rollout technology, starting with a subset of Insiders and ramping up over time. 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 in active development we preview with Windows Insiders might not be fully localized, and localization will happen over time as features are finalized. As you see issues with localization in your language, report those issues to us via Feedback Hub.
