| 17 Aug 2026, 10:01 PM | The Register | 3.0 | Windows 11 movable taskbar edges closer to general release
Windows 11's Release Preview Channel now includes a movable taskbar (top, left, right, or bottom), compact icon mode, Start menu size customization, and the removal of WMIC from Features on Demand. Admin protection via just-in-time elevated privileges is also present, disabled by default but configurable through Intune or Group Policy. Why: If your team manages Windows endpoints via Intune or Group Policy, test admin protection now and audit for any lingering WMIC dependencies before broader rollout, since WMIC is gone from the Features on Demand list and PowerShell is the replacement. For everyone else, this is minor UI catch-up to Windows 10 with no action required. |

Microsoft has identified RGB peripheral software as a cause of Windows 11 blue screens, system crashes, and game freezes. The issue stems from third-party RGB lighting control software conflicting with Windows 11 system processes. Why: If you develop on a Windows 11 machine with RGB peripherals (keyboards, mice, fans) and experience unexplained crashes, disabling or uninstalling RGB control software is a concrete troubleshooting step before deeper debugging. Not actionable for most SaaS or AI/ML work. |
