A new Preview of Windows 11 has been released by Microsoft. Available for a few hours, it is aimed at PCs registered on the DEV channel of the Windows Insider program.
Windows 11 build 25136 is therefore available for download now. We have many things, one of the most striking of which is the arrival of tabs in the file explorer.
This breakthrough is not necessarily a surprise since it has been expected for years. It is even one of the most popular requests from the Windows community. Microsoft has already made a first attempt. The attempt was made under Windows 10 with the introduction of Sets. Unfortunately the tests resulted in the removal of the function and the cessation of its development.
Windows 11 build 25136, some known issues.
Added to this are many other improvements. We also have known issues. For example, it is possible that installing it on a Surface Pro X results in a black screen when you try to wake up from hibernation.
Microsoft points out that a fix is in the works. Pending its publication, the firm simply advises not to install this build 25136 on a Surface Pro X
Windows Insiders with Surface Pro X experience a black screen when resuming from hibernation with this build. You will need to power cycle (extended power button shutdown) to regain control. It is recommended on these devices to hold off on updates until a version with a patch is available.
At the same time, it is possible that stopping certain configurations via the Start menu results in a restart. Finally we also have some rendering problems.
We are investigating reports that the Mica material and Acrylic Blur effect are not displaying correctly in certain parts of the operating system (Start Menu, Notification Center, and other areas). We are investigating reports that Shutdown via the Start menu does not work for some Insiders and unexpectedly restarts the computer.
