Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26120.1350: What’s New?

On August 9, 2024, Microsoft announced the release of Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26120.1350 to the Dev Channel. This update showcases enhancements to servicing technology for Windows 11, version 24H2. Insiders can now experience new features and improvements as they are gradually rolled out.

Major Updates in Build 26120.1350

One of the significant changes in this build is the introduction of an enablement package. This allows Dev Channel Insiders to receive updates based on Windows 11, version 24H2. By turning on a specific toggle in Settings, users can be among the first to access new features as they become available.

“Going forward, we will document changes in Dev Channel builds in two buckets: new features and improvements.”

Additionally, Microsoft SmartScreen will now verify the source of MSIX packages. This ensures safer installations, whether sourced locally or via the web. Another exciting feature is the ability to share content easily with Android devices through the Windows share window.

Fixes and Improvements

Several fixes have been rolled out in this build. Notably, the Task Manager now correctly displays colors in dark mode. Moreover, issues causing Windows Sandbox to fail to launch have been addressed. Voice Access commands for non-English languages have also been improved.

“Features and experiences included in these builds may never get released as we try out different concepts.”

What’s Important to Know

For those joining the Dev Channel, it’s crucial to note that seeing “(repair version)” next to the latest build in Windows Update is normal. This indicates an in-place upgrade will occur. However, some users may encounter issues when adding languages or optional features, resulting in error 0x800f081f.

As always, feedback is essential. Microsoft encourages Insiders to report any localization issues via the Feedback Hub. This helps improve the overall experience for future releases.

Conclusion

The Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26120.1350 brings exciting new features and vital fixes. As Microsoft continues to refine Windows 11, Insiders play a crucial role in shaping its future. Stay tuned for more updates and happy testing!
