While there is some fun to be gained from being part of the Windows Insider program, testing out beta versions of Windows 11 can also be a frustrating experience. While it has always been possible to leave the beta testing program, it was not an easy or particularly intuitive process.

Microsoft has released the first Windows Server preview build of 2024. The new build 26040 supports the new Server Flighting update feature and branding has been updated to Windows Server 2025.

Previously, testers who wanted to leave the Windows Insider scheme needed to start from scratch with a new installation of the OS - but not any longer.

What Microsoft is planning for the future can be seen in the pre-release versions. Some functions for the upcoming version can already be realized today under Windows 10 or 11.

Microsoft has released a new Windows 11 Beta Build 22635.3130 under KB5034218 today for Insiders. With this new build, Microsoft updates Secure Boot, begins unrolling users via in-place upgrade.

Microsoft has released a new non-security optional update for Windows 11 versions 23H2 and 22H2. It fixes the broken search in the Start menu, improves File Explorer, and adds other changes.
