Microsoft Unveils Latest Windows 11 Update for Beta Channel Users
Tech giant Microsoft has rolled out a new update for members of the Windows Insider program in the Beta channel, specifically tailored for the Windows 11 operating system. The KB5037002 update boosts the system version number to Build 22635.3566, bringing a host of new features and improvements for Beta channel users.
One of the standout enhancements included in the update is the revamp of the grid view layout within the “Start Menu.” Thanks to the discovery made by @PhantomOfEarth, it has been revealed that users can now enjoy enhanced grid view layout support, alongside the ability to pin folders and group items in alphabetical order. This tweak is geared towards enhancing user experience and streamlining navigation within the Start Menu.
Aside from the Start Menu improvements, the Windows 11 Build 22635.3566 update also introduces a handy “Show Desktop” button by default. This feature aims to facilitate quick access to the desktop, but Microsoft has thoughtfully provided users with the option to toggle the button on or off via the “Taskbar Settings,” allowing for personalized customization.
Additionally, users will now benefit from an enhanced file manager functionality, which allows for dragging and dropping files directly to a specified path in the file manager’s address bar. This feature, initially tested in Build 22635.3420, has now been rolled out to all Beta channel users, significantly simplifying file operations and boosting efficiency.
Microsoft’s commitment to user-centric customization and continuous improvement is evident in these latest updates, catering to the diverse needs and preferences of Windows 11 users in the Beta channel. Stay tuned for more exciting developments and enhancements from Microsoft as they continue to refine and optimize the Windows 11 experience for all users.
