14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has released a new set of preview builds to Windows 11 Beta insiders, once again using the same approach, with new features only rollout to part of the testers.
The new builds now available for download the following:
- Build 22622.601 = New features rolling out.
- Build 22621.601 = New features off by default.
Microsoft says it has only included bug fixes for both builds that are now available for download, so this time, the company hasn’t included any new features that wouldn’t be offered to some insiders.
These are the changes that are included in both builds now rolling out in the Beta channel:
- We fixed the issue where clicking the network icon on the Lock screen would not work and would crash the Lock screen.
- We updated the start date for daylight saving time in Chile. It will start on September 11, 2022 instead of on September 4, 2022.
- We reduced the power that the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol uses on some devices when they are in Sleep mode.
- We fixed an issue that affects Dual SIM calling. If you select no SIM on your phone and initiate a call on your device, Dual SIM functionality does not work.
There’s just one known issue in these builds, as Microsoft says that in some cases, the audio might stop working in the Beta channel. The company says it’s currently investigating the reports, but for the time being, there’s no ETA as to when it could go live for users.
In the meantime, all eyes these days are on Windows 11 2022 Update, the new version that Microsoft announced earlier this week and which is now rolling out to the first wave of devices. Additional features, some of which have already been tested in the Beta channel, would go live for production devices beginning in October.
