This is yet another small update, but it includes new features as well as a few new changes and fixes.<\/p>\n<p>According to the official notes, build 22489 for Windows 11 begins the rollout of the new &#8220;Your Microsoft account&#8221; settings page. The new page displays your account from Microsoft information, including details about your Microsoft 365 subscription, quick access to order history, payment details, and Microsoft Rewards. The new settings page is only available for a limited number of users, and it will expand to more people over time.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft also says that this feature will continue to evolve over time using the Online Service Experience Pack mechanism, similar to the Windows Feature Experience Pack. However, the difference is that the Online Service Pack is specific to a feature, and the Feature Experience Pack can include improvements for many different parts of the OS.<\/p>\n<p>Windows 11 build 22489 also adds support for <a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/t5\/networking-blog\/making-doh-discoverable-introducing-ddr\/ba-p\/2887289\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Discovery of Designated Resolvers&#8221; (DDR)<\/a>, allowing the system to discover encrypted DNS configurations from a DNS resolver known only by its IP address.<\/p>\n<p>The name of &#8220;Connect app&#8221; for the optional feature has now been changed to &#8220;Wireless Display&#8221; for consistency.\u00a0Also, the &#8220;Apps &amp; features&#8221; page is now divided into two separate pages, including Installed Apps and Advanced apps settings.<\/p>\n<p>As for other improvements, build 22489 includes several fixes a few problems with Taskbar, especially crashes with the explorer.exe service.<\/p>\n<p>In File Explorer, when you right-click a drive, the &#8220;Pin to Quick Access&#8221; is a top-level option, and it includes a couple of fixes. In the Settings, this flight addresses crashing issues and adds some minor visual tweaks. Also, this update fixes problems with Task Manager, Xbox Game Pass games failing to install, improves the layout of text in notification buttons, addresses a bugcheck, and more.<\/p>\n<p>The company also says that starting with this flight, it&#8217;s moving the Dev Channel back to the active development branch (RS_PRERELEASE), meaning that you are going to get more buggy updates since the team is currently working on adding more features and improvements to Windows 11.<\/p>\n<p>You can check all the new improvements and known issues at the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.windows.com\/windows-insider\/2021\/10\/27\/announcing-windows-11-insider-preview-build-22489\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Windows Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Install Windows 11 build 22489<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to download and install the Windows 11 build 22489, you need to enroll your device in the <strong>Dev Channel<\/strong> using the &#8220;Windows Insider Program&#8221;
