Microsoft Unveils Dev Channel Update: Build 26200.5510
Today, Microsoft has launched a significant update for the Dev Channel, identifying the new build as 26200.5510 under the identifier KB5054148. This development marks a strategic shift, as the Dev Channel transitions to the 26200 series of builds.
Transitioning to New Builds
According to Microsoft, this update signifies a notable change in the development process:
Starting today, the Dev Channel is jumping ahead to receive 26200 series builds. This means that the window to switch from the Dev Channel to the Beta Channel is closed and once Build 26200.5510 is installed. If you are in the Dev Channel today and still want to switch to the Beta Channel at the last minute, when Build 26200.5510 is offered you can pause updates in Windows Update and switch your channel to the Beta Channel and un-pause updates.
These 26200 series builds are based on Windows 11, version 24H2 and will contain many of the same features and improvements as the 26120 series builds that will continue to be released in the Beta Channel. Over time, we will be making behind-the-scenes platform changes in these builds and these builds may have different known issues because of those changes than what we’re flighting to the Beta Channel.
In the case of Build 26200.5510 today – this build contains the same features and improvements as Build 26120.3576 released previously.
New Known Issues in Build 26200.5510
While this build does not introduce any new features, it does come with a list of known issues that users should be aware of:
Known issues
[General]
- Upon resetting your PC via Settings > System > Recovery, the build version may incorrectly display as Build 26100 instead of 26200. This will not hinder your ability to receive subsequent Dev Channel updates that address this issue.
- The setting for receiving the latest updates via Settings > Windows Update might not function properly, turning off automatically. This is a cosmetic flaw and will be rectified in a future update.
[Recall]
- [REMINDER] Ensure you have the latest version of Microsoft 365 apps for seamless access to your documents.
The following issues related to Recall will be addressed in upcoming updates:
