Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22572 released, Microsoft has released a new version of its latest Windows 11 operating system in the form of Insider Preview Build 22572. Bringing with it a wealth of new features, tweaks, enhancements and bug fixes. The latest Windows 11 release includes the addition of Microsoft Family and Clipchamp as inbox apps, as well as an update for Search in Windows 11 called search highlights Download ViveTool v0.2.1
On Windows 11, you can now enable an early preview of the new Task Manager that brings a new design using rounded corners, mica material, and new iconography that matches the new design language we have seen across the latest version of the OS available through the Windows Insider Program.
The redesigned app has been announced with the release of Windows 11 build 22557, but since a number of users have been reporting Task Manager rolling back to the classic version, you can use a third-party tool known as “ViVeTool” created by Rafael Rivera and Lucas on GitHub to enable the new experience on your device.
This guide will teach you the steps to turn on the new Task Manager hidden in the latest insider preview of Windows 11 from the Dev channel.
