We've seen employees post issues on Microsoft's GitHub projects with higher build numbers before. In fact, we've even seen a screenshot that shows an updated context menu selection color.
This does not necessarily mean that the public Dev branch is changing now.
If I had to place my bets, I think we're getting 22000.71
next. Perhaps the branch will change soon, but employees keep posting from newer builds here and there. :D
I'm aware quite a few people were interested in how this project was going, hence this post. Rise Media Player Pre-Alpha 1 will be releasing to Insiders in the 'Bloom' channel this October! Come, join in the fun and be a part of what we're doing! Become an insider by joining our discord server (https://disboard.org/server/872910570003791922) or this form: (https://forms.office.com/r/x04TEzx89w). Thanks!
I'm on 17677 and have Sets so there it's not generally disabled in that build. However not all insiders get the Sets feature because right now there are A/B testing that one. But there is registry tweak available to force enable Sets.
Also, here is some screenies to prove it isn't fake.
<strong>Updated link in case other one doesn't work</strong>
The statement in the OPs screenshot is word for word on microsoft.com as a confirmed limitation. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11-specifications
If it was something that they were working on, I doubt it would be listed.
I had this too a little while ago, the way to turn it off is in Control Panel\System and Security\Security and Maintenance, there should be a warning that UAC is turned off, but right below it there is some blue text to turn off the notifications, just click that and it shouldn't bother you anymore.
No, that recipe is based on twitter. I have made a recipe that uses windows insider blog feed. So, I find it more reliable.
Here is the link: https://ifttt.com/applets/90908188d
Let me know if it works, I am new to ifttt.
No that is doubtful, however, GSOD is likely a driver issue or a corrupt file during the upgrade procedure. Windows can cause hardware to freak out to where a complete power off and on is needed. We dealt with an NVMe bug that caused a GSOD and when the PC restarted the NVMe drive wasn't seen (no even in UEFI) until the PC was powered off and back on via the power switch on the power supply.
When I decide to update I use a software called Macrium Reflect Free to make an image of my current boot drive. This allows me to easily go back to it if things go awry. I had used the rollback and Windows own system image tool but both had failed me. Macrium has not. Be sure to learn how it works before you NEED it.
Then I open a powershell as admin and run these two commands
sfc /scannow
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Just to check for any issues with corrupt or missing Windows system files.
There are times when a driver or chipset update is required to run the latest insider build, of course this depends on your PCs internals and they will usually state this in the blog post regarding the update, it is a good idea to check that first as it will state what you need to do beforehand (if anything), what is fixed, and what they know if a problem in the build.
As these are dev (pre-beta) and beta versions you may have to start over (unless you have an image of your system to restore) at any time.
Good luck and have fun with them, I've been an insider since Oct 2014 it is a great program and you might even help resolve serious issues from making it out into the wild.
Searching files from the start menu doesn't trigger the Cortana UI/AI. No data is stored unless you actually perform a web search. Each time you perform a search that sends information MS stores that in your account. You can see that under bing https://www.bing.com/profile/history.
This is not storing file searches, unless you actually perform a web search off of the results.
If you do end up needing an ISO and they did not publish one, you can make your own using UUPDump
https://uupdump.net/fetchupd.php?arch=amd64&ring=wif&build=latest
UUPDump is pretty straight forward, but here is a guide on using just in case - https://winaero.com/uup-dump-download-windows-11-insider-iso-file-for-any-build/
I guess what I'm trying to say is, Windows 11, as I'm sure you're aware, has pretty strict system requirements. The answer to your question, if you will be able to update to the full build normally or have to format and reinstall the operating system ultimately falls on if your computer meets the system requirements or not. This is where it gets a little bit tricky, If you stay in the insider program, and if I understand their wording correctly, you'll be able to keep updating like usual?
It seems Microsoft removed it due to some issues;
>PC Health Check App
>
>With these minimum system requirements in mind, the PC Health Check app was intended to help people check if their current Windows 10 PC could upgrade to Windows 11. Based on the feedback so far, we acknowledge that it was not fully prepared to share the level of detail or accuracy you expected from us on why a Windows 10 PC doesn’t meet upgrade requirements. We are temporarily removing the app so that our teams can address the feedback. We will get it back online in preparation for general availability this fall. In the meantime, you can visit our minimum system requirements page here to learn more.
Yes it is due to a bug in past 2 Dev builds that I have noticed at least.
I use ModernFlyouts so I see it up top of screen anyhow (the next build is supposed to be a big deal).
I had the same problem and found a fix in another thread. There's an old version of the Windows Hello Face Software Device (HelloFace.inf) still installed.
It must be a leftover from Windows 10. Using Driver Store Explorer, I deleted all versions of the driver and restarted the computer. Upon restart, windows had installed the proper driver and facial recognition was working once again.
Just got home from work.
I doublechecked Security/setup/system/forwarded events and administrative events, they look fine....I think its just the "Level" Column that has dissapeared?--Im quite sure I got more information in the application log previously.
Edit: Restored columns to default..maybe it just added the Keyword column after install for some reason - this is porbably nothing..
https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
s*c*rcpy - the name is inspired by strcpy
Also check out my other comment about Chrome debugging in Android.
Your Phone-like functionality could probably work if Microsoft provided an API and an app developer supported it.
Be sure to have a backup procedure in place, I use Macrium Reflect Free, I make an image of my system before applying any new update. It is a development branch and can have major issues, that said I've run them since October 2014 and have had maybe a handful of times where my PC was unusable where I needed to restore without the backup it would have been a reinstall Windows and everything process.
I think the only way to do what you want is to backup your data and then reinstall Windows 10 20H2, unfortunately.
Going forward:
You can go into your settings -> windows update & security -> windows insider program and use the Stop Getting Preview builds section to jump out of the insider program after the next release.
I keep 3 backups that I create with Macrium Reflect free it creates a complete image of my boot drive so I can restore back to that point.
Thanks - I looked at the traces.
Unfortunately they are too chatty and the interesting stuff at the beginning got pushed out of the circular buffer.
Can you try this less-chatty tracing profile? https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=74638E5BF67DF13F!431353&authkey=!ANMNk0Ueat0tFN0&ithint=file%2cxml
Also, can you turn off "Hey, Cortana" during the tracing? Cortana has an open capture thread which is contributing to the chattiness.
Using the instructions there, I left it on Automatic Dump and the DMP file is about 850 MBs. (It's still uploading at this moment, I'm in class so internet is super slow)
It's not docked and I'm completely updated on whatever Microsoft has given me, not really sure if that includes any BIOS updates since their update descriptions on Win10 are really vague. But I have updated using the drivers from their site.
Yesterday, it crashed twice within 30 minutes. Today it crashed after about 20 minutes of using OneNote. I had started to believe it was a memory problem like the other person thought because in OneNote I had started getting the disappearing ink problem. But all these problems started after I updated to [14729].
At this point, I'm thinking I will try doing another reset after opting out of Insider updates and checking to see if I still have these issues with the stable release build. I'll still post the DMP file after it's done uploading, to here and MS Support, if it's a problem with the build hopefully it'll help them fix it before anyone else has to deal with this.
Edit: Here's a link to the .DMP ~850mbs
Are you talking about Insider as host or guest?
As host, which has been the problem for some builds, it's reportedly been resolved with the latest test build:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Testbuilds
Which is 140463 as of today.
I use this one
This brand has a ton of different products though so find one that works for you. Keep in mind the USB speed and refresh rate limitations. I don't use any of the HDMI ports.
I was getting this exact issue immediately after updating. Updated my drivers, issue persisted.
I discovered that it was my VPN, Mullvad, that was causing the issue. Uninstalled it, no problems, reinstalled it problem continued.
It's terrible, but my first thought was "Oh they're trying to make it difficult to use VPNs because the company is run by scumfuck bastards" (it is)
Fix it.
This isn't a career limiting action.
This is a $1,000,000-a-person in-field training that took 12 hours and multiple people to orchestrate. The people who are involved are now far more prepared for the future than any amount of money could ever hope to pay for.
These actions reveal some amazing things about systems:
Live-fire exercises like this are invaluable to a company like Microsoft. Forgive accidentally starting the fire when the response was "Fuck, I started a fire and now I get to put it out" followed by immediately putting into action the steps to assess and end the problem, then taking time to understand the cause of the fire.
Amazon had a similar live-fire exercise when s3 went down earlier this year. Why? A typo made a tool do exactly what it was told. I'd be willing to guess that it's an easy typo too. I'd hazard to guess that, given the s3 people I know and their affinity for the UNIX pipeline, a pipe became \\
and something got eaten.
See point 1: you learn what is fragile and what is fundamentally bad about your design.
> Heh, I've had better luck with seamless (Years ago though).
It never worked right for me, not when it was before Oracle owned them and not now.
> And I know there are third party solutions to get an X server running on Windows, But that was kind of the point I was trying to make.
VCXSrv has been making strides beyond XMing.

without a hypervisor in the middle and having to recompile.
> which includes GUI apps.
The WSL team never really intended it for UI stuff. They were more pushing for web developers and the like. Things that make X11 work have been a long-term backburner sort of thing for.
> Otherwise it comes off (To the purported audience... Devs... Who are aware of the existing solutions... -.-) as a ridiculous claim.
Hey look, I don't have to fuck around with weird networking problems and port mangling hacks to get my node environment at mostly parity on both sides. With VMs, I do.
WSL has solved a lot of the problems I had with doing things in a VM. I highly dislike the terrible port-mangling that comes with hoping that you have it right, it alleviates the need for a whole slew of tools, it means I'm not futzing around with things and getting to work.
edit: Added reference for "We don't support GUI stuff"
The Mica effect in File Explorer header adds heavy drag lag in the beta & release preview channel(22000.194) which is supposed to be fixed in DEV channel,, but reading this it makes me curious.
Does the 'laggy/mushiness improve if you use WinAero Tweaker & enable the 'ribbon' tweak?(This disables the mica effect). https://winaero.com/download-winaero-tweaker/
On the Winaero page I downloaded the files and used the activation file but it didn't work so to undo the changes I used the configuration deactivation file and restarted the computer when doing this the widget started to work
https://winaero.com/activate-or-deactivate-news-and-interests-button-in-taskbar-in-windows-10/
Here is the solution to enable News And Interests toolbar widget.
(For official build 20H2 1902.964 / Beta OR Release Preview 21H1 1903.964)
Method 1 > https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-or-disable-news-and-interests-on-taskbar
Method 2 > https://winaero.com/activate-or-deactivate-news-and-interests-button-in-taskbar-in-windows-10/
IF for some reason, you successfully enabled the widget, but it does not load any content -
RUN the batch file deactivate news feed.cmd (only for those who used Method 2) to restore the default value.
Then proceed to Method 3 >>>
Method 3 >
RUN cmd as administrator.
Use the command cd /d (path where Vivetool is located)
In my case, the command was -
cd /d D:\MY FILES\My Downloads\ViVeTool-v0.2.1
vivetool.exe addconfig 27368843 2
vivetool.exe addconfig 27371152 2
Credits go to the people behind the two links (Methods 1 and 2) and to Morbius.
Hopefully, there is an update for this topic.
From v0.51.0, powertoys run supports launching URI.
This means that you can launch "Connected Devices" by typing $ connecteddevices
instead of executing explorer.exe ms-settings:connecteddevices
hope it helps.
Last suggestion: Are you trying it on ports on the front of the case? If so, try the ports that are directly built into the motherboard on the back. I've had a system board where ALL USB ports were flaky, but it otherwise worked. In a case like that, you can get something like this for about $12.
Delete the contents of the C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Ngc
folder. Some more detailed instructions here: https://winaero.com/blog/reset-windows-hello-in-windows-10/
Windows doesn't do a good job of handling the TPM change with Windows Hello for Business, formerly known as Next Generation Credentials (presumably the reason for the Ngc
folder name).
For those who are still having trouble updating to the Windows 11 Insider Preview (this fix worked for me - it may work for others too if you have exhausted all other options) You should try downloading ShutUp10 (https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10), going to Actions>Undo all changes "factory settings". This should reset most if not all of these settings to default. Doing this finally allowed me to download the Windows 11 Insider. Hope I helped anyone.
I had this issue, figured it might have been something to do with the privacy settings I enabled a while back.
Install https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10 then set the settings back to normal (windows default) from the top actions menu - then try again once you've applied the defaults.
Also, make sure secure boot is enabled in BIOS

(requirements for preview with Windows Insiders)
Windows Subsystem for Android™ Apps available at Amazon Appstore. Additional requirements apply, including 8 GB of RAM, a solid-state drive (SSD), and a supported processor (Intel® Core™ i3 8th Generation, AMD Ryzen™ 3000, Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 8c, or above). Further updates about applicable system requirements will be communicated as the product is rolled out to select geographies.

good to know, same config here, x470!!! 🙌
Try using Microsofts PC Health Checker App to check for compatibility, i wouldn’t rely on a third party app like this one in your photo.
Literally searched the entire page you posted. Got sources on what you're claiming?
And furthermore, it doesn't change my want, it's a dumb fucking change if we're being honest.
I did find what you're referring to, but next time you try to make someone feel dumb, may want to cite your sources instead of just pushing out info.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11-specifications#primaryR4
"Tablet Mode is removed and new functionality and capability is included for keyboard attach and detach postures.
Taskbar functionality is changed including:
People is no longer present on the Taskbar.
Some icons may no longer appear in the System Tray (systray) for upgraded devices including previous customizations.
Alignment to the bottom of the screen is the only location allowed.
Apps can no longer customize areas of the Taskbar."
​
Horrible fucking changes imo.
You could try to delete the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistrobution folder. Then Windows Update will download the files again.
If that doesn't work you can use an ISO from uupdump use a tool like Rufus to put the ISO image on a USB stick, do not boot from it, simply run setup from it and it will do an in place upgrade.
If that fails you may just have to start fresh with that ISO (this time booting from the USB) to install Windows from scratch, I've been in the Insider Program since Oct 2014. I've had to do it a couple times.
use a utility to create a bootable USB like normal, I like to use a tool called Rufus. You just don't boot from it, once the utility has created the USB go into file explorer and double click the setup.exe file on the USB.
Rufus - Create bootable USB drives the easy way

One alternative for foobar2000 is this component: http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_wasapis
It uses shared WASPI shared mode, which means resampling/downmixing, but it uses foobar2000's service to do so. foobar2000 can also be configured to use SoX instead.

That's the one that patches a few DLLs, right? To unpatch the DLLs if you're worried, you can just run sfc /scannow
from an elevated command prompt. Make sure you're not using a custom theme before you do, or you can get stuck unable to log in. Having them in the themes folder is fine, but actually having one applied and then unpatching the files can break the login UI and leave you unable to log in.
Then open Regedit to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\
and find the entry that corresponds to it - you can look at the DisplayName
entry for each to find it then delete the whole key (folder) it's in (folder name looks like {ABCDEF01-2345-...). If that doesn't do it, then yeah, you can search the whole registry for UxStyle, and Everything can help find any leftover files if need be.
For future reference by the way, if this one gives you trouble, SecureUXTheme can do the same things and more without actually patching anything.
Hi,
Manufacturer sent me the ARM64 Win10 drivers, but I can't get them to work. If someone can help, that would be appreciate. Manufacturer didn't said if they were going to develop one or not.

This issue has been plagueing me since I joined beta ring a few builds back and still present on 22000.194.. I had to share this fix ASAP once I stumbled across it(lost the reddit thread it was on),, video is still processing, here's the text guide:
------------------
FOR EXPERIENCED USERS Download Winaero Tweaker & use the 'enable ribbon' Tweak.
TEXT GUIDE:
Drag Lag Fix:
1. Download WinAero Tweaker: https://winaero.com/download-winaero-tweaker/
2. Unzip it using an archive utility such as 7zip: https://www.7-zip.org/download.html
3. Run Winaero Tweaker Setup.exe choose normal program install OR portable if you know what it means.
4. Run Winaero Tweaker, Under Windows 11 Heading click 'Enable Ribbon' & check the box, restart explorer using the button that appears at the bottom.
5. Enjoy.
Context Menu Fix:
1. Follow steps 1-3 Above, Run Winaero Tweaker
2. Under Windows 11 the top option 'Classic Full Context Menu', check the box & restart explorer button that pops up.
To undo the changes simply run the program and uncheck the boxes.
-------------------------------
Hope this helps some of you out as it seems to be a common issue, it WORKS with 1000hz polling rate.

If you've got any means of creating a bootable flash drive with a rescue utility like Hiren's Boot CD (you can use this to install the ISO on a flash drive), you can use it to delete your custom themes from C:\Windows\Resources\Themes . That should be enough to get you into Windows, then I'd run sfc /scannow to have Windows reinstall clean versions of the DLLs UltraUXThemePatcher modifies. If you still can't get in after removing your custom themes, UltraUXThemePatcher creates backups in your System32 folder named themeui.dll.backup and uxinit.dll.backup, so you can delete themeui.dll and uxinit.dll and rename the backups to the original names.
Try Rainmeter.. You might find it too complex or overwhelming, but you can make it as simple as you want.
I just tried it on my Surface Pro 3. I used Rufus (https://rufus.ie/en_IE.html) to write Ubuntu (https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?country=CH&version=18.10&architecture=amd64) to it. I used all the default settings in Rufus; In case they are different:
Partition scheme: MBR Target system: BIOS or UEFI File system: FAT32 Cluster size: 8192 bytes
When it asks you to download syslinux choose yes. There's one more dialog where you can choose how to write the files, just keep the default (I think it's called ISO mode) although both should work just fine.
If it helps I also used "diskpart" to clean the USB drive first out of habit but that shouldn't be necessary as Rufus will create new partitions anyway. Nothing to change in the UEFI itself but you might need to turn off secure boot if that's enabled on the original Surface.
There still isn't a way to resize your selection despite my pleas on the Insider program :(
I also find the whole "launching an app" after taking the screenshot to be very limiting in how you could evolve the function.
For an excellent example of how I feel Snip & Sketch should behave, please take a look at Lightshot. It's near enough perfect for taking and editing screenshots quickly and easily, unlike S&S :\
I've had great results with this: Codec Tweak Tool it's not prominent in the developer's description, but it gives full control over Windows Media Foundation.
Honestly, I'd suggest wiping your hard drive and then reinstalling.
If you wipe your hard drive you'll probably have slight performance boost, and it will ensure there aren't any leftover bits from the failed install.
And to clarify, I mean wipe, not delete and format. Some vendors like Dell, Asus, etc have a wipe option in their BIOS but if you have multiple drives use EXTREME caution. Otherwise there are free tools out there like DBAN "Boot and Nuke".
Also, if you use Storage Spaces and upgraded, you can't easily roll back to Windows 10. It royally fucks storage pools and virtual drives. It's no fun when just one drive in a storage pool is 18 terabytes.
LOL. There are good tools for blocking win10 spying. Spybot antibeacon 1.6 (make sure to use 1.6, not the newer ones) and ucgo win10 spy blocker https://github.com/10se1ucgo/DisableWinTracking/releases
http://www.security-projects.com/?Patriot_NG this is good for catching everything, including buffer overflow attacks and kali/backtrack 5 attacks (Metasploit)
I can't say definitively what connections are made, but one guess would be to Bing Search, since it's integrated into Windows Search as the default for Browser-based searches.
You could try using something like Wireshark or System Internals Suites - TCPView to trace what UDP/TCP connection endpoints are being resolved and which processes are connecting to each.
use locate32 https://locate32.cogit.net/ to do a fulldrives scan and search for file name to see if theyre still there somewhere, if not youre out of luck, getting back deleted files from an SSD is kinda hard (impossible).
i dont understand this, important documents should be in the cloud or multiple backups especially for study.
I'm saying it's possible to make an app that works with Your Phone on any OEM. From what I know, Microsoft isn't planning this feature.
I've never used Your Phone app mirroring with a Samsung. But I presume it just runs the app on your phone and send the video to your PC. Kinda like scrcpy - this works on all Android phones. Some newer Samsung phones can stream multiple apps at once. Those phones probably create a virtual display for each app and stream that.
It'd just a system app with high privileges that can stream the screen over the internet. Screen recording is native Android stuff, no extra drivers needed.
Hi, I can sure relate to this question, the same thing happened to me, thank goodness I backed up my system before doing so. This is a great piece of software, and they offer a free version for home users : https://www.macrium.com/reflectfree David
If you have something like HirensBootCD or Gparted, you might be able to manually replace the driver file itself or rename it to iastor.sys.bak in C:\windows\system32\drivers, but I haven't done that in a while.
I remember that six months ago I wrote a comment about that in Disqus and, by coincidence, the language of the store in that image is also Spanish:
It does if you install the Canary build. I'm using it right now.
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/google-fixes-chrome-canary-crashing-bug-windows-10-build-10525-1516576
MS To Do should be in the MS Store now, but I believe you can also download it online.
But yeah, that's the exact reason I started using Wunderlist years ago, I had an iPhone 4 and a Windows PC. I made sure everything I used was cross-platform!
If you installed the DEV build, it will show that, as those are time-bombed (so you stay current on the pre-release builds). Once Win11 becomes Generally Available (October), at some point beyond that there will be a path to switch to the "release" builds. Once you do that. you can license the install to get rid of the watermark/be running a properly licensed install.
​
$147 for a license (non-transferable)
Do not get the "Windows 10 Pro for Workstations" license, you don't need it. (It's for very specialized workloads.)
I uninstalled the TUN driver in the device manager, uninstalled the NordVpn TUN software, after a restart I installed the NordVPN Tun driver and it still doesn't work. I still get "Windows is still setting up the class configuration for this device. (Code 56)" I am working with build 21390
