Microsoft confirms major Windows 11 Taskbar and Start Menu updates—movable/resizable Taskbar and a configurable Start menu—are in the final Release Preview phase and expected to roll out publicly later this month (to users who enable Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available) and to everyone else next month, with a phased, wave-based rollout and ongoing quality-of-life improvements planned.
Microsoft is dividing Windows 11's Canary Channel into two sub-channels to begin testing a next-major OS core, enabling parallel testing of new core changes within the Windows Insider program while continuing Canary builds.
Microsoft has released new Windows 11 Release Preview builds for members of the Windows Insider Program, featuring the final preview version of "Moment 5" with various new features and bug fixes. Additionally, a February Windows Configuration Update has been released with new voice access features and improvements to Nearby Share, Cast flyout menu, and Snap Layouts.
Microsoft has started rolling out the Windows 11 Moment 3 update to insiders in the Release Preview Channel, but users may not have access to the new features as Microsoft is gradually rolling out the update. To enable the update, users can toggle on the "Get the latest updates as soon as they're available" option in Settings and download and install available updates. Alternatively, users can force-enable the update using the ViVeTool app. The Windows 11 Moment 3 update has an extensive list of new features and improvements.
Microsoft has released Windows 11 Build 22621.1776 to Insiders in the Release Preview Channel, which includes a long list of new features and enhancements that can be turned on with a toggle. The update also includes several improvements that don't require a toggle, such as live captions for multiple languages, voice access command support for additional English dialects, and a VPN status icon. Other improvements include multi-app kiosk mode, live kernel memory dump collection, and a USB4 hubs and devices Settings page.
