Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25126 Releases

Microsoft pushed Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25126 to users in the development channel recently. The focus of this update is still to fix various blue screens of death. In terms of new features, Microsoft has improved the account page to support more Office licenses, such as related licenses for Office 2019 and Office 2021. In addition, Microsoft emphasized that relevant bug fixes may be pushed to the stable version through cumulative updates over time to improve system stability.

After logging in to Windows 11 with a Microsoft account, the Microsoft 365 subscription and expiration time will be automatically displayed in the account settings. In this update, Microsoft supports querying more Office product licenses, such as Microsoft Office 2019 and Microsoft Office 2021. After the user clicks to view the details, they can jump to the Microsoft page to download the installation program. Each product component is different, so the displayed product authorization is also different.

[General]

  • We fixed the issue causing some Insiders to experience a bugcheck with error DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL in pci.sys causing a rollback trying to install the latest builds in the Dev Channel.
  • We did work to mitigate the issue causing the Program Compatibility Assistant Service to use an unexpectedly large amount of CPU for some Insiders after upgrading to the latest Insider Preview builds in the Dev Channel.

[Start menu]

  • If the touch keyboard is docked it should no longer unexpectedly dismiss when trying to edit the name of a folder in Start.

[Search]

  • Fixed a high hitting explorer.exe crash that could happen when using Search.

[Settings]

  • The preview image under Personalization > Lock Screen should no longer be backwards when using an Arabic or Hebrew display language.

[Task Manager]

  • If explorer.exe has hung, that should no longer hang Task Manager.
  • Fixed an issue where the context menus weren’t following the same mode (light or dark) as Task Manager itself for some Insiders.
  • Fixed a typo in the “Minimize on use” tooltip.
  • If you’ve hidden the graphs on the side of the Performance page, the color of the circles used instead should now match the graph in the summary view.
