Key notes

Earlier today, we spotted some chatter on the Reddit forums, with some fellow Insiders suggesting that a new build could be released soon by Microsoft. However, for most of us that was a glitch, as this does occur from time to time.

But as it turns out, we actually have a new build on our hands, the 2nd one – Windows 11, Build 22000.65. We haveextensively reviewed the very first buildand now let’s have a look at what’s changed in this one.

Windows 11 Build 22000.65 comes to Insiders in the Dev Channel

The newly released build comes with a few minor tweaks as well as a bunch of fixes, pretty much acting as a build that fixes the 1st release, which was obviously huge. So let’s have a look at everything that’s changed in this new minor release:

Changes and Improvements

Fixes

We fixed a remote code execution exploit in the Windows Print Spooler service, known as PrintNightmare, as documented in CVE-2021-34527. For more information, see KB5004945.Read more about this here onhow to install this particular KBto make sure you’re not affected. However, as my colleague, Vlad pointed out, if you’re one of the unlucky users of Zebra printers,you might be in a lot of pain.

How to download and install Windows 11 Build 22000.65

Let’s hope that we won’t behunting again for bugsrelated to this release because we saw that the first build was slower on older devices, and later on, even newer andfaster devices had issues with it.

If you’re new to the Insider program, he’s asweet and short articleon how to set you up and become the geek among your friends that knows what Windows 11 is all about. You simply need to do the following:

However, If you want to test Windows 11 but don’t want to compromise your device,here’s our article on how you can install Windows 11 in a VM, or have a look at ourdedicated videoon that.

Our own early impressions

From the looks of it, it seems that this update is the first one that gets delivered on a way faster route(which is one of the new features that we loved in Windows), being delivered via a normal cumulative update (installed in just several minutes), as opposed to a full build download and install (close to an hour).

However, this wasn’t the case on all of our test machines, and we did have the usual failed installed problems that you would get.

Moving forward, what we particularly enjoyed was the taskbar that finally works properly on multiple monitors. Of course, the issue at hand remains that you can’t yet move the taskbar to the sides or top of the screen.

We’re going to have a quick look at thenew refresh button, as there’s been some buzz around it, as well. And we will keep digging, as always.
