Someone has an idea – in this case, for streamlining the interface – so they try it out and see whether it works okay, and what the reaction is to the change. To be fair to Microsoft, as the company makes clear in its statement, this is what test builds are for. But that’s obviously a pretty clunky way of doing things, so it’s no wonder folks weren’t happy with being thrown that ‘bone’ as a consolation of sorts. We should note that Microsoft did leave a route to still access those folder options in the build where they were dropped, namely editing the Registry.
(Speaking of the latter, you may get a head-scratching pop-up related to Windows Hello, as we reported yesterday).Īnalysis: Registry workaround was not well-received Build 23486 also brings in some work on the passwordless front, with Microsoft enhancing the passkey experience in Windows 11, allowing users to go to any supporting website or app and use passkeys via Windows Hello.
