Resolved Issues

The following issues have been addressed in this build:

[File Explorer]

Resolved a problem that caused File Explorer to appear blank and unresponsive when accessed via ALT + Tab from a minimized state in recent Canary builds.

Fixed the “…” menu in the command bar, which was incorrectly oriented at certain display resolutions.

Enhanced accessibility in File Explorer, including improved text scaling support in File Open/Save dialogs and file copying dialogues (accessible via Settings > Accessibility > Text size).

[Input Issues]

Addressed a crash in ctfmon.exe that occurred while copying content from specific applications.

Fixed a bug where GetRawInputData failed to read data properly, resulting in an invalid handle error.

[Login and Lock Screen]

[Settings App]

Fixed a crash that occurred when interacting with Bluetooth & Devices > Cameras.

Eliminated unexpected spacing at the top of pages such as System > Sound within the Settings application.

[Printing Functions]

Resolved an issue that prevented non-administrative users from uninstalling printers they had added.

Fixed a message error indicating failure of the Send to OneNote printing driver for some Insiders.

[Other Resolutions]

Addressed installation failures for certain applications in Builds 27813 and above.

Tackled underlying issues that caused some users to encounter bugchecks with UNSUPPORTED_PROCESSOR errors during upgrades or fresh installs.

Fixed an issue causing unexpected pixel inversion when using CopyPixels in specific scenarios.

Rectified a traffic routing issue in recent Canary builds, which affected network adapter connections.

Known Bugs

Despite the improvements, a few known issues persist:

[General Notes]

[IMPORTANT FOR COPILOT+ USERS] Transitioning to the Canary Channel from the Dev Channel, Release Preview Channel, or retail on a new Copilot+ PC may result in the loss of your Windows Hello PIN and biometric sign-in capabilities, accompanied by error code 0xd0000225 and a message stating, “Something went wrong, and your PIN isn’t available.” Users can recreate their PIN using the “Set up my PIN” option.

[NEW ISSUE] The update toggle within Settings > Windows Update may not display correctly and can inadvertently turn off, though this is merely a visual bug that will be corrected in a future update.

[Taskbar Issues]

We are actively working to fix the problem where taskbar icons fail to increase in size when the PC is used in tablet mode.
