Windows 11 23H2 gets fixes for input, networking, and storage in the latest preview build

Microsoft is rolling out a new update for Windows 11 Insiders in the Release Preview channel, particularly for those still on Windows 11 version 23H2. Build 22631.6132 (KB5067112) is now available for download with fixes for input, networking, shell, and storage. Here is the changelog:

• [Input] Fixed: This update addresses an issue where the touch keyboard does not enter characters into text fields after the device wakes from sleep. Although touch keyboard animations appear correctly, key presses do not register—for example, when entering a password on the sign-in screen.
• [Networking] Fixed: An issue where external virtual switches lose their physical network interface card (NIC) bindings and convert to internal switches when the host restarts, resulting in network connectivity loss. The issue was caused by incorrect detection of orphaned virtual switch objects during Host Network Service startup.
• [Shell] This update enables the Personalized Offers feature during device setup in the Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE), and in Settings after the user reaches the desktop.
• [Storage] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that affects disk communication and causes connectivity errors during Azure Stack Hub or Azure Local cluster upgrades.

You can find the announcement blog here. Note that Windows 11 version 23H2 is approaching its end of support. Microsoft will stop updating this version in November, so it is now a good time to update to something more recent, such as version 24H2 or the freshly released version 25H2. The latter is now available for more users.

In case you missed it, Microsoft also released a big Release Preview update for Windows 11 version 24H2 and 25H2. The latest build brings the redesigned Start menu, File Explorer improvements, and other changes, which are expected in the stable channel in a couple of weeks. You can find all the details here.
