Windows 11 build 25211.1001

Windows 11 build 25211.1001 is the twenty-sixth Insider Preview and the twentieth available client build of Copper, the 23H1 development semester of Windows as a service. It was released to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel on 29 September 2022.
== New features and changes ==
=== Widgets ===
Three options for controlling Widgets taskbar behaviors have been added to the Settings page. As part of this change, the widget picker has been separated from the Settings page. This feature is only available to a subset of users, but can be toggled on manually by enabling the 38652916 velocity ID.
=== Taskbar ===
* The "Show hidden icons" overflow has been updated with the following changes, which can be toggled on manually by enabling the 38764045 velocity ID:
** The rounded corners and shadow effect have been applied to the tray icon hitboxes.
** The overflow will show five tray icons in a row instead of three.
** The drag-and-drop feature for reorganizing tray icons, which had been disabled since the introduction of the tablet-optimized taskbar, has been re-enabled.
** The tooltips on tray icons have been redesigned.
** New animations have been added.
* A new Task Manager item has been added to the taskbar context menu.
** This item will not show if the redesigned search box is enabled.
=== Settings ===
* The support for uninstalling apps with inter-dependencies, repairing and modifying Win32 apps under Apps > Installed apps, which initially introduced in build 25169, has been removed.
* The examples used in the Short time selection under Time & language > Language & region > Regional format has been updated to show morning and afternoon times.
* The Archive apps option under Apps > Advanced app settings has been replaced with a toggle switch under the main page, rather than showing it in a separate page. This change is disabled by default, but can be toggled on manually by enabling the 40762871 velocity ID.
=== Task Manager ===
* The graphs in the Performance page has been tweaked to use a bit more transparency.
* The reliability of Task Manager has been improved.
=== Bugfixes ===

== Bugs and quirks ==
=== General === 
* The audio may stop working in certain cases.
* Several apps may crash on launch in certain cases.
=== Tablet-optimized taskbar ===
* The taskbar may sometimes flash when transitioning between desktop posture and tablet posture.
* The taskbar may take longer than expected to transition to the touch-optimized version when switching between desktop posture and tablet posture.
* Using the left or right edge gestures may cause the Widgets or Notification Center (respectively) to overlap with or look truncated by the taskbar.
* The taskbar may sometimes stay stuck in the expanded state instead of dismissing to collapsed state when using the bottom right edge gesture to see Quick Settings.
* The taskbar may sometimes collapse unexpectedly when there are no running windows on the desktop.
=== Shell ===
* Various UI elements in apps may disappear and reappear repeatedly.
* On some locales, the default font used in several UI elements (such as the date and time on the taskbar) may change to regular Segoe UI instead of Segoe UI Variable.
=== Virtualization ===
* Users may experience a UNSUPPORTED_PROCESSOR bugcheck when booting Windows in VMware on a Hyper-V enabled host with 2 or more cores allocated.
* The system may fail to boot in VMware with attached network adapters.
=== Widgets ===
* The Notification badge number may appear misaligned on the taskbar.
* In right-to-left display languages, the content may animate out of view before the Widgets board resizes when clicking to expanded view of the Widgets board.
=== Safe mode === 
* Quick Settings and date/time clock on the taskbar may be missing due to the Capability Access Manager Service service not running.
* Clicking Bluetooth & devices and Personalization pages may crash the Settings app due to an overrun of a stack-based buffer 0xc0000409.
