Greetings, I am using Windows 11 Insider Preview 27729.1000 (rs_prerelease) and I have been facing numerous graphic issues, and that is the case for all Insider updates for the last few months.

Spec of my HP Pavillion 15 gaming are as follows:

AMD Ryzen 5 5600H with Radeon Graphics

NVIDIA RTX 3050ti

16GB RAM

The issues I am getting is non availability of AMD Integrated GPU (in Task Manager->Performance, like 3050ti is shown but AMD GPU is not mentioned), stuttering of all graphic intensive apps like Wallpaper Engine, games, etc, and an overall bluish tint.

The above picture is taken through mobile, when I take screenshot using lightshot, the screen appears normal in lightshot ss.

Toggling Night Light doesn't change anything on the screen and blue elements of UI are too strong than they normally are.

I have updated all Drivers and everything, I don't know if this issue is specific to my device model or is troubling everyone, I haven't had an update from July because of the same issue.

It's midnight here so I will go to leave this as it is, if you can help, please suggest me what to do, else as usual I will go back to the last working version of the build tomorrow morning. Also, is there any way of changing from canary to dev build? As I am sure Dev build has surpassed my last working canary build version.

Edit: Here it shows that AMD Radeon Graphics is not working and is stopped:

I know Microsoft has been testing this feature in the Insider channels, but it doesn’t seem like this feature has made its way to the Release channel yet.

I’m curious if anyone has seen this feature roll out outside the Insider builds

I would like to start transitioning to passkeys. Being in the Insider program, I frequently reinstall Windows. if I want to go to a channel behind the one I'm using. I would like to know if passkeys will stay associated with my device when I reinstall Windows.

Hi,

I bought a new laptop with pre-installed win 11 home from a well-known manufacturer. When I enabled the windows version build watermark on the desktop, I was surprised to learn that it was displaying that I have a insider preview version.

Even more surprisingly, the windows insider preview setting as well as the online windows.com/insiderpreview account thing are telling me that my laptop is not in the insider preview program.

If I upgrade to Pro, will I automatically get the stable channel? Is there any other way to get a stable version without losing all my data? Or is the desktop watermark simply wrong? Alternatively, I can live with this, if there is a way to get only public updates.

Thanks!

EDIT: the build is 26100.xxxx.ge_release.24xxx.xxx

I never willingly registered for the insider program.

I’ve found out that the best version of Windows 11 for me is 23H2.

I’ve tried countless versions of insider preview and found out that 22.631.4602 works best for me.

Hey everyone,

I'm currently on Windows 11 24H2 Release Preview, and I'm wondering:

1. Has the stable version been officially released?
2. Will I automatically get updated to the stable version, or do I need to manually switch to it?

Thanks in advance for any help! 😊

Im using canary channel for a while (more than 6 months i think) and i can say its more stable than Developer.
I didnt spot any bugs or green screen errors on the canary channel either.

When i was using dev channel (i used it for like 8 months or smth like that) im always suffering from green screens, bugs, errors and things like that.

And when microsoft is going to release Windows 12? They said that they'll release new Windows version every 3 years but we are coming to the end of 2024 and there is no announcement about that.
Ik no one can really know the exact date but do u have any predictions about official release date of W12?

Hello everyone,

I'm slowly losing patience with my problem. Since the last Windows update, I have to deal with the Windows security policy every time I restart, requiring me to press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to get to the login screen. I've disabled it every time via the Local Security Policies, which, by the way, seem to uninstall themselves every three days.

Does anyone else have the same issue or a solution for this? I understand it's a security feature, but it's incredibly frustrating. Every time I wake my Surface Pro 7 from standby, I have to press the Power and Volume Down buttons (the alternative to Ctrl + Alt + Delete in tablet mode) instead of being able to log in directly.

I´m using a Surface Pro 7 ( i5 version with 8 gb ram ; Win 11 Insider Preview Build 277758.rs_prerelease.241122-1512)

Thanks in advance for any help!

This started to happen in Win11 23H2 since the update KB5034204 on January 23, 2024 and continues until today, both on latest Win11 23H2 (Stable) and 24H2 (Stable).

The error on shutdown/reboot is caused by the "GameInput" service (which among other things manages the opening of the Game Bar when clicking the Home button on controllers) when controllers and/or headsets are connected to the PC.

The only workaround to fix it is to disable "GameInput" service completely and reboot, which is not ideal as summoning Xbox Game Bar clicking the Home button on controllers (especially now with its new Compact mode) is cool.

Luckily the error is mostly "visual" as it doesn't log in Crash reporter or cause any other issue...except seeing it on almost every...single...shutdown or reboot.

It's getting ridiculous after all this time now.

Please fix it u/jenmsft

Thank you,

My PC:

CPU: AMD 7800X3D
GPU: PNY RTX 4080 XLR8 OC
RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000Mhz
SSD: 2TB WD SN850x NVMe (7300 MB/s)
Motherboard: ROG Strix B650E-I

My 8th gen Intel laptop is running Windows 11. I did an update and the compatibility access manager service cpu usage was constantly at 30% to 40%, not to mention discussing my usual services and battery life. Nothing I did would change it other than disable the service, itself, which broke wifi and a lot of other stuff. I disabled various a/v hardware, I tried updates, nothing...

The thing that worked was to roll back to 23H2 build 22631.4602. Now cpu is back to 4% to 5%. No fan, etc...

Microsoft, get your poop in a group and test this stuff more... And make this right so we can all update properly. This is unacceptable for a "high end" piece of software.

For the past year, G-SYNC has stoppped working properly if I have the taskbar enabled on all of my monitors. It seems as though the taskbar on my other monitors clips on to the main monitor by a few pixels causing G-SYNC to stop working. I’ve sort of bandaid fixed this by disabling the taskbar on my other monitors, but I’m wondering if any of you have come up with a better fix.

It happens in the official 24H2, beta, dev, and canary builds.

made a mistake joining dev channel and its been years ive been waiting to leave and i cant. so whats the solution guys. please ive even uninstalled feature enablement and now im on version 26100 but still the toggle doesnt appear

Trying to set up Recall on my Samsung Galaxy Book 4 running Dev channel 26120. When I did so, it instructed me to "Turn on device encryption" in Settings. I checked with System Information, and the Galaxy Book 4 supports device encryption. (And yes, I checked the BIOS.) However, when I enabled it, I got a generic error message ("Something went wrong, try again later"), and subsequently, although device encryption appears to be activated, Settings advises me that "Some drives can't be managed with device encryption." The only drive on my system is the built-in SSD. When I restart Recall, it repeats the instruction to "Turn on device encryption." 

I have noticed this on two different devices (one XPS and one SLS) with two different external keyboards and the internal ones that sometimes it happens that the modifier keys (esp. Crtl and Alt Gr) get stuck in their state. Which leads to the PC being unusable as every key input is triggered as if one of the modifiers was hit.

So far the only fix for when this happens appears to be to do a restart, but yesterday I think to have fixed it by pressing Alt Gr a couple of times. I'm not sure about this.

So far this happened almost daily and must be related to the latest Dev Channel release (26120.2415).

Anyone else experienced this? Windows is set to German Locale, so maybe this could very well be the culprit aswell.

I am anxious to try the new native quest integration on Windows but I can't seem to find any more information then "its coming in December".

Im on the insider dev channel. Currently using a Surface Laptop 7 with snapdragon.

There are zero signs of any new features after switching to the dev channel, downloading 26120.2415 and restarting...

Could it be due to my region? Im currently in Italy.

I have my main profile, after the insider updates I have no issues with my pin being reset or having to enter my password to log in.

My partners account on the other hand gets shown the following after every update

Your PIN in no longer available due to a change to the security settings on this device. Click to set up your PIN again

Does anyone know why this would keep on happening to her account and not mine?

Running Windows 11 Pro Insider Preview Dev build 27754.1000

As the title states, I joined the insider program a while ago, have since left, but didn't realize I'd need to do a clean install of windows to remove the insider build. I've recently purchased an m.2 4tb which I cloned my current 1tb m.2, and had all kinds of issues with windows setup / not being able to boot.

Please advise the best way to approach from here. I'm looking to preserve my data, currently on a 1tb m.2, migrate it to my new 4tb m.2, and it seems like I must do a clean install of windows (non-insider), but how can i do this without losing any data?

Thank you.

Edit: running windows 11 pro Dev OS build 22563.1

im trying to leave the insider programme, and im still getting updates

Is anyone else having issues creating a Mobile Hotspot on the latest build? I had no problems on release build, but after upgrading and using Vivetools to try unlock 6ghz (the option never appeared), I can no longer turn it on, it just automatically toggles back to off with "We can't set up mobile network"

https://winaero.com/how-to-enable-6-ghz-mobile-hotspot-in-windows-11/

Edit - I'm mostly curious if this is a me problem (most likely), or if anyone else is seeing the same issue and can expect an upcoming fix. I've already spent countless hours debugging, my only things left to try are messing around in the BIOS or force downgrading.

Edit edit - Messed around in the BIOS and force downgraded to release preview and still not working :))) probably gonna have to reinstall Windows at Christmas when I have time

EDIT EDIT EDIT - Found a workaround for anyone who experiences this issue in future - using MyPublicWifi.

The default settings with Router Mode (NAT) and Internet Connection set to either my Wifi or Usb Tethering (depending on what I'm using) and changing the network key works

If I edit the Network name (SSID) it no longer works, and says my device isn't capable of wifi direct or hosted network
If I select internet connection sharing (ICS) it gives me an ICS error
