Did you expect anything else with the 25H2 EP being a dev channel cab and the dev channel enrollment is still needed to get the next dev channel updates offered and the manual installation was tested not working already.
No, just a test this weekend because its to hot outside. I can definitely wait until October, especially since the 25H2 enable update doesn't bring any improvements.
yes your right thanks oh well see if my system can remain perfect, I like 25/h2 seems many bugs were fix including the one in MS apps help about clicking their license agreement pops right up no need the use the ALT key anymore
windows 11 26100.4946 Before launching Notepad.exe Try icon State Capture.JPG Notepad.exe launched: status of the System Tray (Icon Language is displayed) Capture1.JPG my keyboard setting; Capture2.JPG Someone has already had this problem
Yep, exact same situation here. Fresh Win 11 26100.4946 (English en-us) with French (Azerty legacy) keyboard (only), and the damn Language icon (English/French + English/US) appears upon launching Notepad. I have also experienced it showing up on another occasion (not running notepad), but can't tell exactly what triggered it. So... not sure whether it's entirely Notepad's fault, or if there's something strange at the OS level too.
I restored my system with a backup made August 12 I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's Dynamic Theme Installer.exe (from store) causing this problem for me. for the moment without launching this program it works
experiencing the same here, when Notepad launches, the KB layout appears in the taskbar and remains persistent till log-off/reboot. WINVER: 26100.4946 notepad: v11.2506.35.0
