But more fixes are needed and some might be released after October 5 Windows 11 release date.
Microsoft continues to deal with bugs to do with Start, Taskbar and Search in Windows 11 before it releases the next Windows to mainstream users on October 5. The software giant has released Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22468 to the Dev Channel, the channel in its testing forum where updates may or may not arrive in the version of Windows 11 on October 5. In Microsoft’s assessment, this build provides a “good set of improvements and bug fixes” for those on Dev Channel releases and follows yesterday’s release of the Paint app redesigned for Windows 11. Microsoft highlights two key improvements: But the remaining list of fixes reveal Microsoft’s efforts to whittle down key problems affecting the Windows system and user interface (UI) that need tidying up before October 5. With such little time, it looks like a matter of prioritizing fixes on a tight deadline rather than fixing everything before that date. For example, Microsoft says some fixes listed in this Dev Channel build won’t actually arrive until after the official Windows 11 release. “Some fixes noted here in Insider Preview builds from the active development branch may make their way into the servicing updates for the released version of Windows 11 after general availability on October 5th,” Microsoft states.
