Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 28020.1812 (Canary) adds touchpad right-click zone sizing, refines drag-tray peek view, updates Secure Boot status and certificates in Windows Security, improves Feedback Hub UI/behavior, and reminds Insiders that Canary builds are experimental and rolled out gradually.
Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 28020.1812 is released to the Canary Channel. This build brings targeted touchpad, sharing, and Windows Security refinements for Insiders.
Main feature/change and impact
This build adds a configurable right-click zone size for pressable touchpads. Users can select default, small, medium, or large zones. Manufacturers can expose a Custom entry to preserve vendor settings. The change reduces accidental right-clicks and improves ergonomic control for laptop users. It relies on touchpads with a pressable surface, limiting availability by hardware capability.Practical implications
The drag tray peek view is reduced to minimize accidental invocation near the top of the screen. Windows Security shows Secure Boot icon badges and certificate status in Device security. The Secure Boot experience updates certificates on consumer devices and some business PCs. Feedback Hub version 2.2604.101.0 rollout includes window memory, mouse back navigation, and improved community feedback visibility.“Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasingWindows 11 Insider Preview Build 28020.1812to the Canary Channel.
