Microsoft has released the latest Windows 11 build for members of the Windows Insider Program in the Beta Channel. The new build number is 22635.3936 build, under KB5040535. It includes new designs for the “Open with” dialog and more.

Here is the changelog:

Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out to the Beta Channel with toggle on

 

[General]

 

We are trying out updated designs for the “Open with” dialog where the group headers are removed, among a few other changes.

 

[Taskbar & System Tray]

 

We have temporarily disabled the more simplified system tray with shortened date/time change that began rolling out with Build 22635.3930 to address several issues. We will begin re-enabling this on a future flight. If you saw this change previously, it will likely disappear after updating to this build today.
