As part of this rollout, the development team is not making any new features or significant improvements.
Windows 11 build 23555 new fixes
These are the fixes and improvements for the latest build of Windows 11 in the Dev Channel.
- Copilot: Fixed an issue that was causing explorer.exe to crash when trying to open Copilot from the taskbar.
- Windows Narrator: Fixed an issue that was preventing you from previewing Narrator natural voices in Settings, and a problem that prevented Narrator from reading the time stamp on Start’s recommended items correctly.
- Task Manager: Fixed an issue which was causing a Task Manager crash when changing Always on Top mode.
In this preview, some apps under “All apps” on the Start menu may incorrectly be labeled as a system component. Also, for known issues in Copilot, the new icon is not currently shown in Dev Channel builds, the feature may no appear in some regions, the “Alt + Tab” shortcut isn’t working correctly, and when first launching or after refreshing Copilot while using voice access you’ll need to use “Show grid” commands to click in the “Ask me anything” box for the first time.
