• We fixed the underlying issue related to combase.dll, causing crashes with multiple apps using GetKnownFolder APIs after upgrading to Build 25290, including Notepad and Windows Terminal for IME users. This issue is also believed to be the root cause of some Insiders finding that certain actions in File Explorer were taking minutes to complete these builds.

• We fixed an issue where when hovering over app icons on the taskbar could switch window focus unexpectedly.
• As a result of fixing the issue causing third-party widgets to get unpinned when signed in with a Microsoft account across multiple Windows 11 devices, the most recent Widgets update in the Dev Channel will unpin third-party widgets. Insiders will need to go back to their widgets board and re-pin these widgets again. If you still see issues where widgets are being unpinned unexpectedly – ​​please file feedback.
• The link for “Find more widgets” in the widgets picker currently is no longer broken and will point to the Store collection here.
• We are beginning to roll out a fix for an issue where the IME candidate window and IME toolbar weren’t shown or cropped sometimes.
• Drag and dropping files and folders across tabs should work again.
• Process names typed into the search box should no longer get spellchecked unexpectedly.
• Fixed a couple of issues with how Narrator was reading out content in Task Manager.

• When using search on the App History page, results should no longer suddenly disappear.
• If you open the Default Start Page dropdown in settings, clicking the Task Manager window should make the dropdown disappear now.
• Dragging the window using the search box area should work now (like other areas of the title bar).
• Fixed an issue where ending processes in the Details tab wasn’t showing a confirmation dialog.
• Increasing the text scaling should no longer result in a “see more” button appearing with no contents.
• If you do a search and then press the down arrow, the keyboard focus should now move from the search box to the results.
• If you have a contrast theme enabled and select one of the rows in the Processes page, that row should now show that it’s selected.
