Here is everything new in the latest Windows 10 build 19045.3030 (KB5026435)
According to the announcement, Microsoft has released update KB5026435 as a preview for Windows 10 22H2. It has a number of improvements like a redesigned search box experience on the taskbar so users can easily access apps, files, settings, and more from Windows and the web, and shows up to three priority notifications at once.
The update also brings a slew of problems regarding Server Message Block (SMB), Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS), Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) cluster, Windows Firewall, Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) policies, and more.
Here are the fixes and improvements in Windows 10 build 19045.3030:
- This update brings back an improved search box experience on the Windows 10 taskbar. If you have a top, bottom, regular, or small icons taskbar, you will see the search box appear. You can use it to easily access apps, files, settings, and more from Windows and the web. You will also have access to the latest search updates, such as search highlights. If you want to restore your previous search experience, you can do that easily. To do that, use the taskbar context menu or respond to a dialog that appears when you use search.
- This update now displays up to three high priority toast notifications at the same time. This feature affects apps that use Windows OS notifications to send notices for calls, reminders, or alarms. Up to four toast notifications might appear at the same time. This means that there can be three high priority notifications and one normal priority notification.
