It’s far. Microsoft introduced the first Insider Build for the upcoming Windows 11 23H2. It’s Windows 11 25115.1000 rs_prerelease and is only distributed in the dev channel. The dev and beta channels have been separated again.
This version will not be released as an ARM version. At first, not much will change compared to the 22H2. As always, this will take a few builds after a fresh start. But there is one new feature – the proposed actions.
“Windows Insiders can try out a new feature in this build that speeds up everyday tasks in Windows 11 with built-in suggested actions. When you copy a date, time, or phone number, Windows suggests actions that are relevant to you, such as, for example, creating calendar events or Make calls using your favorite apps.
Known issues in Windows 11 25115.1000
