Announcing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26200.5600 (Dev Channel)
Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26200.5581 (KB5058493) to the Dev Channel.
New Copilot+ PC experiences
Intelligent text actions in Click to Do for AMD and Intel
-powered Copilot+ PCs
We’re introducing more intelligent text actions to enhance your Click to Do experience even further on AMD and Intel
-powered Copilot+ PCs. Use WIN key + mouse-click or WIN + Q to select a text block and then drag to select the text that you want. You’ll see options to Summarize, Create a bulleted list, or to help you Rewrite your text, so it sounds more causal, more formal, or more polished.
More intelligent text actions in Click to Do with options to Summarize, Create a bulleted list, or Rewrite.
Click to Do leverages the capabilities of Phi Silica, the on-device Small Language Model (SLM) that is built right into Windows. Results from our local model will show directly inline and if you’re happy with the rewrites you can copy them directly to your clipboard for use anywhere.
The intelligent text actions are available when your default language is set to English, at least 10 words are selected, and you’re signed in with either a Microsoft account or Microsoft Entra account. You can learn more about using Click to Do here.
FEEDBACK: Please file feedback in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Desktop Environment > Click to Do.

Fixes gradually being rolled out to the Dev Channel with toggle on*
[Start menu]
- Fixed a few crashes impacting Start menu reliability for Insiders in recent flights.
[File Explorer]
- Fixed a deadlock which could occur when loading File Explorer Home, causing it to hang.
- Fixed an issue where Shared by and Activity information was missing in the tooltip when hovering over recent documents in File Explorer Home.
- Fixed an issue which could cause explorer.exe to crash when closing File Explorer.
[Voice Access]
- Fixed an issue which was causing voice access crashes when using Spanish.
[Taskbar]
- Fixed an issue where when using Tab and Shift + Tab to move keyboard focus around the taskbar, if you went backwards at least once you could get keyboard focus stuck on the taskbar frame, which would potentially lead screen readers to just say “pane”.
- Fixed an issue which could cause the media controls in the preview windows for apps in the taskbar (that support it) to flicker.
[Windows Spotlight]
- Fixed an issue where the Windows Spotlight flyout for “learn more about this picture” (when using it as your desktop background) might get stuck above other app windows.
[Live captions]
- Fixed an issue causing live captions to crash in the previous build.
[Other]
- Improved the colors used in MMC when items are selected, both generally, and when contrast modes are enabled.
- Fixed an underlying issue which could make some apps like Word hang when trying to print.
