Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25231 is now available for users in the Dev
Channel. This build fixes some bugs, and enables the Tablet-optimized taskbar on
all supported devices


WHAT’S NEW IN WINDOWS 11 INSIDER PREVIEW BUILD 25231


TABLET-OPTIMIZED TASKBAR AND SYSTEM TRAY


The Tablet-optimized taskbar that was re-introduced in Build 25197 on a limited
basis, is now available for all users in the Dev Channel. It’s worth noting that
this feature is only available on tablets and 2-in-1 devices, it does not
support laptops or desktop PCs.



Build 25231 adds support for drag and drop in the System Tray, so you can
rearrange your icons per your requirements.


INPUT METHODS

The spelling dictionary in the operating system uses a language-neutral word
list, which syncs across your devices with the same Windows account (Microsoft
accounts). The feature can be toggled from the Settings > Accounts > Windows
backup > Remember my preferences > Language preferences.  The Simplified Chinese
IME input now supports the cloud suggestion feature, which debuted in Build
25217.


ACCESS YOUR PHONE’S HOTSPOT FROM THE PHONE LINK APP

The Phone Link app on desktop can now be used to access your mobile phone’s
hotspot. The feature requires Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and allows users to connect
to the phone’s Wi-Fi network with a single click.

That could useful feature, but unfortunately it’s only available on select
Samsung phones. There are a few requirements that your devices need to meet,
your phone should be running on One UI 4.1.1 or later and have the Link To
Windows phone app version v1.22082.142.0 or above. Your PC must have Windows 11
version 22H2 Build 22621 or higher, with the Phone Link app version
v1.22082.111.0 or greater.


FIXES IN WINDOWS 11 BUILD 25231

The tooltip for the Sound icon in the Quick Settings will tell you when spatial
audio is in use. Microsoft has fixed a bug that was preventing network cameras
from being added when selected under Bluetooth & Devices > Cameras.

FindWindow and FindWindowEx were returning an unexpected window, this issue has
been patched. Windows 11 was not allowing laptop users to unlock their computer
if the device was connected to a monitor, but the laptop’s lid was closed,
Microsoft has resolved this problem. A bug that was leading some apps to crash
when attempting to display a tooltip has been fixed, the issue affected apps
like Paint and Windows Terminal.


KNOWN ISSUES IN WINDOWS 11 INSIDER PREVIEW BUILD 25231

Microsoft has added 5 new bugs to the list of known issues in Build 25231. Some
apps may display thick lines on the side of the window, Microsoft Edge is one of
the apps that are affected by this problem.

Users who try to use the latest ISO to update their Dev Channel version may run
into a SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION bug check which shows an error with
win32kfull.sys. Clicking the hidden icons flyout in the Taskbar may display a
File Explorer entry on the taskbar. Chat apps are not displaying the flashing
animation to indicate new messages have arrived. The apps are not opening a
preview when hovering over the icon in the system tray. Microsoft says that
folders in the Start menu may not open on the first try.

Microsoft has released Windows 11 Insider Preview Builds 22621.875 and 22623.875
to the Beta Channel, they enable the Task Manager shortcut, and the
Tablet-optimized taskbar for all users.

Though the release notes don’t mention it, the performance of the Widgets board
seems to be better in this build. I was able to access iCloud Photos via the
Photos app, so it could be rolling out to more users.
