Windows 11 Build 25197 est disponible en téléchargement, quoi de neuf ?
Une nouvelle construction de Windows 11 est disponible sur le canal DEV du programme Windows Insider. Cette build 25197 propose des icônes animées et réintroduit des mises à jour de la barre des tâches et de la barre d’état système. En parallèle nous avons des mises à jour d’applications et des corrections de bugs.
Disponible en téléchargement depuis quelques heures, Windows 11 Preview Build 25197 propose des barres des tâches et barre d’état système optimisées. La barre des tâches passe automatiquement à cette version optimisée si le clavier est déconnecté ou replié sur un appareil 2 en 1. Cette avancée n’est pas disponible sur les ordinateurs portables ou de bureau.
Windows 11 et la barre des tâches optimisées pour les tablettes
Microsoft ajoute
Pour rappel, il existe deux états de cette barre des tâches : réduit et développé. Dans l’état réduit, la barre des tâches sort de votre chemin, vous donne plus d’espace à l’écran et vous empêche d’appeler accidentellement la barre des tâches lorsque vous tenez votre tablette. Dans l’état développé, la barre des tâches est optimisée pour être plus facile à utiliser avec le toucher. Vous pouvez facilement basculer entre les deux états en balayant vers le haut et vers le bas sur le bas de votre appareil.
A noter que le déploiement est progressif. Elle n’est donc pas disponible pour tous les PCs inscrits au programme Insiders.
Du coté de la barre d’état système, la mise à jour concerne tous les appareils et pas seulement les périphérique 2-en-1. Il s’agit principalement de retouches avec un traitement arrondi de mise au point et de survol sur toutes les icônes en bas à droite. Un bug est présent et Microsoft assure travailler sur la question. Il n’est pas possible de glisser-déposer ou de réorganiser les icônes.
Là encore le déploiement est progressif.
En parallèle à tout ceci s’ajoute des icônes animées et des illustrations dans l’application Paramètres. Elles se situent au niveau de la barre de navigation.

Microsoft s’attaque aussi à la correction de bugs. Ils affectent le barre d’état système améliorée, Démarrer, l’explorateur de fichiers ou encore les entrées et Paramétres ainsi que le module Widgets, le fenêtrage et le gestionnaire des tâches.
Etant sur le canal DEV cette Preview s’accompagne de plusieurs problèmes connus. Vous trouverez tous les détails en fin d’article.
Windows 11 Preview Build 25197, note de version
[Settings]
- We are beginning to roll out animated icons and illustrations in the Settings app. With the animated icons in the navigation bar, we continue growing our motion design principles to transform these familiar interactions from something purely functional to something that is also delightful.
[Input]
- We are making the small tweak that began rolling out with Build 25179 to improve the key repeat rate for the traditional touch keyboard layout, as well as the default touch keyboard layout, so it feels more responsive available to all Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel. Now it has the rate of 20 keys per second (for example, when holding down the delete key).
Fixes
[System Tray Updates]
NOTE: These fixes will only show if tablet-optimized taskbar with System Tray updates is enabled on your device. Please see above for details on the tablet-optimized taskbar and System Tray updates, which is beginning to roll out to Windows Insiders and not yet available for everyone.
- The taskbar should no longer flash because of changes in the system tray in non-tablet-optimized scenarios.
- Fixed an issue that was causing parts of the taskbar or its icons like search to get stuck in the wrong theme’s colors when switching between light and dark themes.
- Date and time should no longer get stuck cutting off on the side of the screen from system tray changes.
[Start]
- Fixed a crash that users were seeing when using Start’s recommended section.
[File Explorer]
- Fixed an issue leading to a small set of Insiders with “launch folder windows in a separate process” not being able to launch File Explorer in the last two flights due to an explorer.exe crash.
- Did some work to help improve the performance of deleting files via File Explorer (when emptying the recycle bin or using Shift + Delete) in the case where there are a large number of files being deleted at once.
[Input]
- Fixed an issue causing ctfmon.exe crashes for some Insiders in recent flights when words were added to your spelling dictionary.
- Dragging the voice typing window to another monitor which has a different scaling than the originating monitor should work now instead of bouncing back.
- Fixed a sporadic crash in recent builds when using the input switcher.
- Fixed an issue which could lead to voice typing and other input features hanging on initialization.
- Fixed an issue with displaying certain Sinhala words, where they were unexpectedly overlapping.
[Settings]
- Updated the design of the lists displayed Apps > Startup Apps and Apps > Advanced App Settings > App Execution Alias pages to be more consistent with other Settings pages.
- Fixed an issue which could lead to Settings crashing when removing devices.
- Updated the Personal Dictionary section under Privacy & Security > Inking & Typing Personalization to now say “Custom word list”.
[Widgets]
- Fixed an issue which was making the weather icon in the taskbar draw too high and with no text in recent flights.
[Windowing]
- Clicking the title bar portion of a preview thumbnail in Task View should now actually switch to that app, instead of just closing Task View.
- Fixed a sporadic explorer.exe crash which could happen when using ALT + Tab or Task View.
[Task Manager]
- Fixed an issue impacting Task Manager reliability.
- If graphs have been hidden on the Performance page, the circles used to identify each of the different sections should be less blurry now.
[Other]
- Fixed an issue which could lead to hangs in certain apps when attempting to print if an IPP printer took too long to respond to the print request.
- Fixed an issue where EnumPrinters wasn’t always returning the correct size for pcbNeeded, which could lead to hangs in certain programs.
- Fixed a typo in the dialog displayed when Smart App Control blocked an app.
- Fixed an issue where certain characters were missing in the boot environment when using the Chinese (Simplified) or Korean display languages, leading to square boxes in the text.
NOTE: Some fixes noted here in Insider Preview builds from the Dev Channel may make their way into the servicing updates for the released version of Windows 11.
Known issues
