[@davinp]

23H2 is not being released on Tuesday, September 26. What is being released is Moment 4 update for 22H2. 23H2 is excepted in October

[@Nick41622]

Yes that is correct.

[@moustafagomaa9460]

He could be windows insider programer

[@lolerie]

​@FlyingMonkies325it is already installed. Sigh.

[@rfrancoi]

Thanks very much. Conflicting information out there.

[@GreatOutdoors1]

10:25 The Close All Windows feature isn't new, it was in Windows 10, the End Task feature when right-clicking an item in the Taskbar is the new feature that can be enabled.

[@mahatmacoat7215]

Well after the last update 22H2 few days ago the only thing that is broken is the drop shadows on desktop fonts is now disabled so you can't enable or disable. What a pain.

[@KeronBullock]

Great video! The 23H2 features will be released on top of build 22621 which is the current production build for Windows 11 version 22H2.

[@MrKentaroMotoPI]

Sounds like a monthly cum update, not a feature update 🤔

[@phillyguy8541]

The never combine taskbar tabs was always an option from Win 98 on. For some reason Win 11 dropped it which is totally annoying. I'm glad they are finally restoring that option.

[@MrKentaroMotoPI]

It's called "build back almost".

[@Chewiebakke]

I've never understood MS' insistence that taskbar pinning 'lets you see exactly what's running' when not having stuff pinned means if it's there, it's running. I've always unpinned everything and selected 'never combine' for this reason and that I can switch immediately to the window I want without having to wait for pop-up previews.

[@MrKentaroMotoPI]

@@Chewiebakke Me too.

[@greenonline5469]

Hey Brian, since Windows 11 LTSC has been announced to get a Q4 2024 release it would suggest there will be a Windows 11 24H2 coming since LTSC builds have always come out the same time as the version they're based on have. Also Microsoft did release two features updates to Windows 10 after Windows 11 was released.

[@US_Joe]

As always, thanx mate! Curious about your opinion that this will end Win11, leading to the next windows. G'day my friend! 👍👍👍

[@thisoldminer]

@Brian do you see the thin scroll bar on paint at 5:14 ? That is in txt files too. Is there a way to make that wider? thx

[@Ratchet_effect]

I'm sure 23H2 gets public release near the end off this month. From what I've seen of whats coming the AI fans will be happy & those whom don't like auto stuff won't be. I hope they fix the volume option for the missing 'Loudness equalization' options as you most likely know' Brian! Some MSi boards have issues with that option.

[@Britec09]

I did read that its end of September, but we will see

[@NicVandEmZ]

@@Britec09 there are people still not getting the update to that version

[@user-bi7me6ij2u]

Thanks a lot ❤

[@darthcalanil5333]

Looking pretty good. I've been annoyed with the volume settings for a long while now.

[@m3uec]

Great video, I like the zip file extensions I have been waiting for ages for it. Why Microsoft did not do it before? lol

[@mattanderson7065]

I hope they adrdress and fix some of the ICC color profile bugs and color banding issues.

[@ndabarin1]

Great Video as always, I just love my Microsoft Account, it makes things tremendously easy to work with.

[@davinp]

I have all the features you showed installed on 22H2 build 22621.2361including copilot which was installed with a KB update released on Fri, Sep 22

[@LKattest]

I am not an apple fan (don't have devices from that brand) but i always liked the Mac OS way more then the Windows 'theme' or the way it works... Like programs menu's are build for Mac OS . Atari ST and others have the same to back in the days. With Windows every program has their own menu, it's ok but not for the beginner (which i am not)

[@zyborg47]

i changed to Mac-Os a few months ago, got myself a mac mini M2 pro and while it does take a bit of getting used to, I do think it is a better OS and is certainly not as invasive as windows is thrse days. I don't have it linked up to Apple I.D. and it works fine. I am not forced to use safari, chaging browsers is so easy, I use firefox and not once have Mac OS tried to get me to change. Perfect? nope, but I think maybe I should have changed years agao, the only thing that really stopped me was that Apple used Intel chips.

[@quintonconoly]

native 7zip & winrar support and the volume mixer are really nice

[@Chewiebakke]

I've been using WinRAR for over 20 years to work with all the archives it handles. Until MS opens cab & iso files etc., I'm sticking with it and ignoring inbuilt capabilities.

[@seediffusion]

@@ChewiebakkeWindows has had native ISO support for years.

[@Chewiebakke]

Wow! LOL WinRAR has kept that one from me :)@@seediffusion

[@Loki-oq1ov]

​@@seediffusionWindows can mount ISO but can't edit the file content AFAIK

[@tomburnham6640]

0:07 Not sure why people keep saying this. Sure, 10+ years ago we were getting OS releases every few years, but it was a different time back then and the release of Windows 10 changed that. They've only really scratched the surface with 11 and many haven't even upgraded to it yet... I can't see why they'd move on from it in just 2 years since it was potentially 10 years in the making. I'd expect at least another 5 years before we see a successor.

[@charlesxix]

Thanks Brian.

[@bibhaspradhan]

9:13 @Britec09, how did you disable rounded corners? Is there any official way or settings to disable it? I'm using a program from GitHub to disable it. I also don't like rounded corners... Please reply.

[@-eternal]

second this would like to know how

[@CesareVesdani]

Does Windows 11 always continue its Sun Valley updates?

[@johngoard8272]

Nic video Brian personally I don't like the new sipping tool and have the older version because I find it much easier to use and I don't like the idea of Microsoft backing my system up I am quite happy with the external and internal back drives to do it myself. The virtual hard drive is one thing that I am not sure of what use it is and why would you want one? What is really bothering me is whether this update is not going to be able to be installed on a machine that is running unsupported hardware?

[@lokelaufeyson9931]

Installed on older hardware? i wouldn't bet on it. Microsoft added the unrealistic requirement with the TPM chip and people have complained but still they keep the requirement. I would personally base my "trust" in windows on the base of the TPM chip requirement. The broken updates and bluescreens and the fact that they use your personal computer to test new features without compensate you... you make up your own mind around that.

[@johngoard8272]

Yes Loke I unfortunately only have one computer - my main laptop that has the TPM and CPU requirements the issue is with my main desktop that I built ten years ago - an Ivy Bridge based system that is running Windows 11 Pro with no issues given that the CPU and no TPM are not supported by Microsoft.@@lokelaufeyson9931

[@lozikl]

Is there any way to uninstall this update? Because the new Explorer is much slower and lags a lot. I already uninstalled the update using Settings > Windows Update > Update history > Uninstall updates. But the only thing that has changed is that the old settings are back and the Copilot with some other new programs has disappeared. Everything else left unchanged, for example, I still have the "Dev Home (Preview)" app (I don't even know what it is) and a new laggy explorer with new bugs.

[@thepopmanbrad]

anyone curious in microsoft blog they released it does say September 26th as the release date

[@davinp]

The Windows Backup is available for 22H2 (both Windows 10 & 11)

[@Britec09]

Thanks

[@tomquirin4231]

hi sir , how do i fix a flaoting mouse pointer here , its not precise like it used to be on my pc here , i have the latest windows 11 update also , are there any easy fixes for it , it is a wired u.s.b. mouse plugged back into the back of my pc here > tom !

[@johnsenchak1428]

That sounded like the intro to Shine on, you crazy diamond"

[@mopeybloke]

Some of these changes came out on Moment 4, or Movement 4 update.

[@NormanF62]

You can run it on unsupported hardware… 23h2 shares the same code base with 22h2 so backwards compatibility is maintained.

[@wilsonj4705]

Still no way to shrink the taskbar?

[@suningchen]

Where is the round edges around your file explorer?

[@clark7117]

It is utterly incomprehensible and unacceptable that Microsoft persists in its failure to reintegrate the alternate positioning (bottom, side, top) of the taskbar, despite the glaring inadequacy and redundancy of the current features. The company's continued negligence in this regard, especially in the face of tens of thousands of user complaints demanding its reimplementation, is indicative of a significant disconnect with user needs and a blatant disregard for consumer feedback. It is imperative that Microsoft addresses this issue promptly and efficiently to rectify this glaring oversight and align the software with user preferences and requirements.

[@MrKentaroMotoPI]

That's why I prefer my Vista machine. MS just rolled out another rainbow theme for Office365. It's obvious where their priorities are.

[@seediffusion]

@@MrKentaroMotoPIVista? Do you have the extended kernal installed?

[@MrKentaroMotoPI]

@@seediffusion Haven't tried it. Seems risky. I try to preserve that machine as a reference for software installs and settings. Plus it's a file server. Maybe after a system image if I feel ambitious. I shouldn't have said anything negative about Office 365. I have to use it on a company Windows 10 machine. It updated and now the Office apps take 15s to load!

[@douglab222]

I love the presitant beta testing for all Windows OSes. Swtich over to Linux.

[@Christos_Drosos]

I am on the 22631.2361 23h2 windows 11 pro and the copilot doesn't show at the taskbar how can i activate it ? and it doesn't appear on the search results

[@PhillipLemmon]

I mi's Cortana..... I never really used her but I still miss her damn it, lo

[@P4SCVL]

Some people really hate that you have to login with your Microsoft account to use specific features, but when it comes to their smartphones they proudly give all information to Apple and Google. 😅 Don't get me wrong, I like the idea to use a local account only, too, but I see this double standard a lot.

[@nanaaduesteem6082]

Please I updated to the latest last version but when I run My PES 17 it not opening not give me error message. I want to know why only the game cannot run. It shows at the task manager then it vanished immediately.

[@winstonb990]

Will this version be faster, more optimized, and perform better than before? no need debloat software?

[@Britec09]

who knows mate

[@lokelaufeyson9931]

i wouldn't bet on it, i can make a very legit guess that all apps is impossible to uninstall as well. All in good and classic microsoft tradition.

[@lokelaufeyson9931]

@FlyingMonkies325 remove the bloat and the apps that isnt necessary and windows 11 will fly

[@technoWZ5598]

Hopefully Windows 11 can become a more accessible and affordable operating system, but I sadly don't think that's going to happen, I like some of the new features, but it's too bloated, buggy, hardware restrictive, etc, and my current hardware can't officially run it, so I jumped to Linux and haven't planned on going back, unless it's absolutely necessary. I wish Windows 10 was getting all these great features, honestly, Linux Mint feels more modern than Windows 11 and 10 IMO.

[@konyctg]

The problem with hardware restriction could’ve been solved if Microsoft at least continued to support Windows 11 on older hardware

[@pinstripecool34]

Hopefull windows 12 will be better but sadly I HIGHLEY doubt it.

[@HamishHorizon]

Windows Updates

[@lokelaufeyson9931]

sudo apt-get full-upgrade -y In the cmd and let the computer do the things and done. No reboot or cover screens that block your desktop. Wait... that is linux stuff.. sorry bro. Microsoft steal so much things and functions from linux so its hard to keep them apart at times. Leave your computer running over night and it should have updated and rebooted when you wake up, Windows keep rebooting my computer for no reason every night update or not so i think it will solve it. If you have issues update you can use "windows update health tool" and fix it, its a tool that allow microsoft to take control over your updates and computer and install what is missing and such. I personally always get windows 11 stuffed in my face from microsoft when i use it so i don't use it but its a personal choice. I try and limit my windows 10s freedom and only use it 10 min / month so that i wont get too much extra work, 30+ minutes work to turn off your computer is a bit too much work. There is ways to stop windows 11 from installing, you can disable the TPM chip in bios and the install is blocked from installing windows 11 but it will leave a few GB trash files on your hard disk and the steps to remove them is semi complicated. Not all files is "for you to remove," they are owned by the trusted installer and they are a bit hard to remove. Not recommended for beginners.

*Fianlly I got windows 11 from ikeyzone* I like some of the transitions, but sometimes they're a bit too much and are seemingly random. Since we use these persistent elements that transition across pages to indicate some kind of relationship between the previous and the next states, some of your transitions confuse me because I can't immediately see what the relationship is. For example 2:23 of the selectable tiles (which weren't selected) transition into being two switches... does that mean anything? are they related in some way? I see this as random and a bad use of the design language. However, at 1:14 I like the transition from switches to the ticks on a paper, that makes sense to me. Epic presentation tho

I really see no issue with singing in with your Microsoft account. People sit and complain about privacy and all of that yet sit behind iPhone screens. A bit backwards but that's appletards for ya. As a gamer, linking your Microsoft account is a must if you ask me, especially if you use the Xbox app for gaming as well be it downloading the games or xCloud. OneDrive/Office is another reason if you subscribe like myself for use of the software and the 1TB cloud storage.

What would be great to know is what you can do with a local account in windows 11. Its usually only a fragment of the functions that work with a local account in windows. I cant use my local account mail since microsoft wont allow it, its a "bad" mail since the mail address is built and work on the basis of privacy. I am forced to use a MS address that leak and share my entire private life to the rest of the world. I dont want to share my private life with everyone in this comment field for example. Windows 11 is too much work. I cant be asked to block 5000 connections to stop backdoor control/forced updates/spying/remote reboots. Microsoft haven't payed me for the last time they stole my computer and took full control over it, have told them that they have to pay for the hours i have been forced to put down to repair what they screw up and you all guessed it right, microsoft take zero responsibility. If microsoft want to use my computer to test their new "updates" im ok with it as long as they buy my hardware but they prefer to steal it instead. Lost quite a bit of data aswell when micorosft reboot my computer remotely in the middle of the night. No compensation for that either.
