Microsoft Launches New Windows 11 Dev/Canary Versions with Exciting Features and Bug Fixes

After not launching a new version of Windows 11 Dev/Canary for two consecutive weeks, Microsoft finally launched a new version this week. The new version launched this time is still for both the development channel and the canary channel, but there are differences in versions.

I would also like to remind Canary channel users again that if you no longer want to use the Canary version, please switch to the Windows Insider Dev channel in the settings. Otherwise, once a higher version of the Canary version is released, you It may not be possible to return to the development version, beta version, or official version in a short period of time.

Copilot window problem

Starting from this version, Windows Copilot has added a window mode. After starting, Copilot pops up in the form of a window, which can zoom in, out, and move the position, etc., just like other ordinary programs. At the same time, Microsoft also retains the fixed dock mode of Copilot. Users can click to set button to switch.

Live subtitles function

After this update, click the quick settings (network logo) on the taskbar to add a real-time subtitles button, so that you can quickly turn on real-time subtitles through the quick settings when necessary.

Progress bar style

Microsoft has updated the design of the progress bar under the application icon, and a thin line will be displayed under the colored progress bar for users to view.

File manager unzips files

When performing decompression/extraction operations, if there are problems such as file name conflicts, File Explorer will now also display a dialog box, allowing the user to choose to perform the same steps for all conflicting operations, such as skipping or replacing.

Printer rename

You can now rename printers from Settings, Bluetooth & Devices, Printers & Scanners.
