Windows 11 Build 22622.290 arrives, what’s new on the news side?

Microsoft has released a new preview of Windows 11. This build 22622.290 is offered to PCs registered on the BETA channel of the Windows Insider Program.

The release note announces the arrival of the proposed actions. Microsoft is trying to make its operating system smarter in order to speed up some classic and repetitive tasks. Suggested Actions attempts to suggest actions related to the tasks. For example, when you copy a date, time, or phone number, Windows will suggest actions like creating a calendar event or making a phone call.

More specifically when copying a phone number, Windows displays an interface that shows different ways to call the number in question.

The ability to display the payment method on your Microsoft 365 subscription has also been added.

If you are close to your OneDrive storage limit, the information will be visible on this page.

  • Sorry – this issue has not been resolved yet.
  • Made some tweaks when “Show full path in address bar” is enabled, to make sure the folder name is always visible.

known problems

[General]

  • We’re working on a fix for an issue that resulted in a small number of Beta Channel Insiders experiencing periodic crashes in Windows user interface components (such as explorer.exe), making the screen appear to flicker. If you are affected, running the following command from an elevated PowerShell window should resolve it: Add-AppxPackage -Register -Path C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.CBS_8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml -DisableDevelopmentMode -ForceApplicationShutdown

[File Explorer]

  • Up arrow is incorrectly aligned in File Explorer tabs. This will be fixed in a future update.
