Microsoft seeds the new Windows 11 Insider Preview build to the beta channel. Following the previous trends, the firm released two insider builds – 22622.575 and 22621.575, with one rolling out with new features while on the second build new features are off by default. The new features are available on the 22622.575 insider preview build. The newer incremental update bags a bunch of fixes to the beta channel. Read along to know more about Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22622.575 update.
Microsoft kicks off the new cumulative update to the beta channel with the 10.0.22622.575 (KB5016694) version number. If you’ve opted the beta channel in Windows Insider Program, then you may have already received the new beta update on your Windows 11 PC. If you received the 22621 build and want to try out the new features, then you can request the new update inside the System updates section in the Settings app.
Moving to the changes, then the new update brings the option to open a folder in a new tab by middle-clicking on it. The update fixes the dark mode issue on the File Explorer, UI issues when using F11, overlapping issues, and more. Other than that the update addresses the taskbar overflow flyout issue, Narrator not reading issue, and better date and time recognition in US, Canada, and Mexico.
There are some other fixes, available on both Windows 11 Insider Preview 22622.575 and 22621.575 builds.
