Microsoft has released Build 22454.1000 within the Dev Channel in the Insider Program. With already divided paths where the Beta Channel already has its own builds, members of the Dev Channel can now start testing improvements that should arrive with the 2022 update
Microsoft has already warned that from now on more failures may occur due to the state, still very advanced, of these compilations, so they recommended going to the Beta Channel if more stability is preferred and in fact they warn that the Builds posted to the Dev Channel no longer match the Windows 11 experience that will be released to customers on October 5.And with that said let's go over the improvements coming in this build on the Dev Channel
Changes and improvements
- When you right-click the Recycle Bin on the desktop, now uses the new modern context menu.
- Added an option when right-clicking a network share in File Explorer to pin it to Quick Access without having to click Show more options.
- An updated version of the Korean IME has started to be released with adjustments made based on Windows Insider feedback.This will provide a more reliable input experience for Korean on Windows 11. The updated version of the Korean IME follows the new Windows 11 visual design with acrylic in the candidate window, a new visual selection, and dark mode support. It also improves performance and compatibility. The updated Korean IME is being rolled out to a subset of Insiders on the Dev Channel first, to help us quickly identify issues that may impact performance and reliability. Over time, it will roll out to all members of the dev channel. Please submit feedback via the Feedback Hub under Input & Language> Text input.
