Recent Windows 11 Insider Build Addresses Major Issues

It’s been several months since Microsoft launched its Windows 11 24H2 update, yet numerous issues persist. As updates roll out, users remain hopeful for solutions—some updates welcome fixes, while others may disappoint.

Microsoft has now released the Windows 11 Preview Channel Build 26100.3025 (KB5050094), which brings a host of new features, but more importantly, it attempts to resolve many prevalent bugs.

Here are some noted issues being addressed in this latest build:

• Disappearing mouse cursor in certain applications.
• Stuttering mouse movements on screen.
• Oversaturation of HDR graphics in certain games when Auto HDR is in use.
• Repeated search entries without user action.
• Loss of focus from the search box during typing.
• Delays in closing the Task Manager.
• Distorted screenshots with the Snipping Tool.

Users have voiced concerns about these persistent bugs, particularly the frustrating stutter of the mouse cursor, a basic functionality that seems problematic in 2025. Microsoft describes the 24H2 as a ‘full operating system swap,’ implying a significant backend overhaul despite a user interface that appears unchanged.

New builds aim to remedy these long-standing issues, but there’s always the risk of introducing new bugs along the way. For those who have adapted to Windows 10, these ongoing complications may deter updating to the new OS.
