The Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25276 (Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25276) brought some interesting new features, such as a new memory dump feature added to Task Manager, updates to cloud storage settings, and some fixes. However, it also has a list of open issues that Microsoft is working to resolve.

One of the reported issues with Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25276 is this some users are seeing updates take longer than usual. Brandon LeBlanc, a senior program manager for the Windows Insider program team and therefore a Microsoft employee, came out with a statement that the company is investigating the issue to find a solution.

Windows is not traditionally a highly regarded system for its update mechanism, which can be tedious mainly due to the fact that it requires several restarts to complete the process. This gives the user no assurance that they will be able to use their computer as usual the next day from the start, even after agreeing to leave the upgrade process until the end of the previous day.

Microsoft has acknowledged other issues with Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25276. One of them is the fact that Windows Hello facial recognition doesn’t work on ARM-powered PCs, although this can thankfully be fixed manually using the Hello PIN route. Other issues include several Insiders experiencing crashes when using the browser and certain apps, and when using the tablet-optimized version of the tool, the main bar is sometimes cut in half, which can also happen on secondary monitors.

This should be well known by now The Insider Program is not a stable branch of the operating system, so users who sign up should be aware of the risks they are taking. Of course, this does not mean that Microsoft is standing out in the face of problems, because one of the things that the Insider program provides is early detection of bugs and problems before they are officially deployed to all users.

Of course, while the Insider program is focused on polishing things, that doesn’t mean that the stable branch of Windows 11 is apparently bringing more problems than it wants, to the point that Microsoft has stepped forward to try to dispel doubts about the capabilities of the latest deployment in areas as sensitive for society as it is playing games.
