This is an important release with several changes and improvements, but no new features.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.windows.com\/windows-insider\/2022\/05\/05\/announcing-windows-11-insider-preview-build-22616\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official changelogs<\/a>, Windows 11 build 22616 brings the internet and Microsoft account requirements for the Pro edition while setting an installation for the first time. If you choose to set up a device for Work or School, there is no change, and it will work the same way as before.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is reverting some changes for the system tray available in previous builds. For example, the &#8220;Show hidden icons&#8221; flyout will now function the same way it did with the original release of <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/tag\/windows-11\">Windows 11<\/a>, including the ability to rearrange icons in the flyout.<\/p>\n<p>Also, this flight introduces several fixes for the Taskbar, input, Widgets, Settings, Task Manager, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Since build 22616 is an almost finalized version of <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/windows-11-22h2-new-features\/\">Windows 11 22H2<\/a>, Microsoft is now recommending Insiders switch their devices from the Dev to the Beta Channel to prevent installing builds for the next version of Windows.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to switch channels without reinstallation, open <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt;
