Microsoft Releases Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22499, There are Improvements in Microsoft Teams

Some time ago Microsoft released Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22499 for Insider Dev Channel, in this version, there is an interesting feature that makes me want to discuss it, what is it? yep, the ability to quickly share Windows Apps on the Taskbar directly with Microsoft Teams.

It can also be said that this is an improvement for Microsoft Teams which is already the default application in Windows 11, with this capability, users can quickly share open application windows into the ongoing Microsoft Teams call.

After sharing, of course, the audience in the Microsoft Teams call can see the screen sharing that we just shared.

In addition, according to the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22499 Release Note page, there are a number of other features and capabilities that have been added as well, such as the Clock / Clock application on version 11.2110.32.0 now has the ability to Sign-in with a Microsoft (Work) account. or School), then apart from that, there are a number of fixes which include the clipboard history now working fine again, and a few other things you might see in the list below.

Changes and Improvements

Based on feedback, we are making keyboard focus visuals in Task View and Alt + Tab a little more prominent, so they’re easier to see.

Fixes

Clipboard history should be back up and running properly once you’re on this build.
Clicking gifs in the emoji panel will now actually insert them into supporting apps, unlike in the previous build.
Updated the backend dictionaries for several languages – the touch keyboard’s text suggestions and autocorrect should be more accurate now.
If you change your accent color the accents in the emoji panel should follow suit now, instead of getting stuck with the old color.
Fixed an IME crash that was happening sometimes for people who had chosen to use the previous version of the Pinyin IME.
Mitigated an explorer.exe crash that was happening sometimes recently related to touch keyboard usage.
Made another fix to address an issue where explorer.exe would crash if you pressed ALT + F4 while ALT + Tab was open.
Fixed a Settings crash that could happen when trying to check remote sound properties while accessing a PC over Remote Desktop..
Fixed an issue that was causing some clipping / unexpected zoom when going through OOBE on some ultrawide monitors.
The apostrophe in the error message when your fingerprint isn’t recognized on the login screen should display correctly now.
When taking a screenshot of a UWP app by pressing the New button in Snipping Tool, Snipping Tool should come into the foreground once the snip is done.
Fixed an issue that was causing some Insider PCs to bug check when coming out of sleep recently, with an error message saying “SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED”.
Fixed a deadlock that could happen related to MediaPlaybackCommandManager, resulting in certain apps not being able to play media sometimes.
Addressed an issue that was causing reports in Reliability Monitor to unexpectedly be blank with just an empty rectangle when going to see more info.

Known issues you can see on the following Microsoft page.

Now for you Windows Insider Dev Channel users who happen to be using Windows 11 now, it’s a good idea to update your Windows 11 version with Build 22499 which was just introduced.

You can go to Settings > Windows Update then please download the available updates there.

Windows 11 Enterprise Virtual Machine Is Available!

If you are waiting for Windows 11 Enterprise, which contains a number of Enterprise-class features, of course, then the good news is here for you, because some time ago Microsoft finally released the Windows 11 version, even though it is still a virtual machine file.

The file consists of several different files according to the user’s preferred VM application preferences, there are VMWare, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and Parallels, and not only Windows 11 Enterprise but there are also a number of things that are included in this VM including:

Window 11 Enterprise (evaluation)
Windows 10 SDK, version 2004 (10.0.19041.0)
Visual Studio 2019 (latest as of 10/09/21) with the UWP, .NET desktop, and Azure workflows enabled and also includes the Windows Template Studio extension
Visual Studio Code (latest as of 10/09/21)
Windows Subsystem for Linux enabled with Ubuntu installed
Developer mode enabled
Windows Terminal installed

Still quoted from the Microsoft page, this VM package has an expiration date of January 9, 2022, not long, right?, of course, because this is the Evaluation version which as usual has a time limit of approximately 90 days.

Size and How to Download

As for the size itself, this VM package is around 17 – 20.5 GB in size, quite large indeed, because once again it includes a number of applications and even WSL with the Ubuntu distro.

As for how to download it, you can just go to the https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/ page to download this Windows 11 Enterprise VM.

So if you’re curious, just try it, for the installation tutorial itself, I’ll make it in the next article. Thank you.

To date, Windows Subsystem for Linux is one of the most important features for developers, because WSL provides a very useful compatibility layer that allows users to run Linux binaries natively on supported Windows devices, without having to download a virtual machine ( VMs) specifically.

Well, as we have previously reported, some time ago Microsoft presented WSL Preview in the Microsoft Store Windows 11, and of course with that users can more easily update WSL itself from the Microsoft Store page, and related to this, today Microsoft has launched a version preview 0.50.2 of WSL.

If you notice, in this version WSL brings a new penguin icon that is more colorful, besides that based on the changelog from WSL 0.50.2, this version also brings the Linux Kernel Version 5.10.74.3 update.

For the full changelog, you can just read it on the following GitHub page, but in general, of course, this update brings a number of good things for WSL users because after all there are many improvements presented.

Interested in giving it a try though, the update seems to be rolling out gradually, but if you want to get this update faster, you can download the associated MSIX package for the latest version of WSL on the following GitHub page.
