Windows Insiders in the Dev and Beta channels have different Windows 11 builds to download today, both with very minor improvements.
The Dev channel is being updated to Windows 11 build 22454. This one has a few minor changes, including a proper modern context menu when you right-click the Recycle Bin on the desktop and a new option for pinning a network share from File Explorer when you right-click it. Yep, big stuff.

The Beta channel is being updated to Windows 11 build 22000.184, as since this channel represents the first shipping version of Windows 11, and that development is essentially done, there are only a few fixes, both minor.
Both builds still have long lists of known issues, however. And the Beta channel build still has the taskbar/Explorer reliability problems, so you’ll need that Registry key fix from last time.

<p>Why didn’t they push right click window for recycle bin to beta channel as well. Seriously why not. I wish they waited with Windows 11 for whole another year to get all UI inconsistency ironed out and more.</p>
