[DISCUSSION] Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25346.1001 (PC) [Canary Channel - rs_prerelease]

Reading the Dev 23440 change log and I come upon this.

Code:

Shift + Right click on a file or folder should open “Show more options” again now.

 

+1

 

Here we go again.

For some reason this build broke my Creative ZxR...

Feels like Déjà vu.

 

Measured with an SSD drive

 

nice and smooth build

 

I had to revert back to previous build. A lot of insiders on Canary having issues. Install was fine. But after a few minutes my PC becomes unstable. I can't sign into OneDrive and the icon remains cloud with a line through it. My widget is grayed out generic symbol instead of local weather and can't be opened. CTRL/ALT/Del doesn't do anything, it should open the task menu. I can't restart the PC from the start menu, I have to restart by holding in the power button and shutting down and then restart. At the beginning Edge and Chrome will connect to the internet, but then as system starts to freeze the browser windows are just white screes. Reboots do the same, so in the end reverting back was my only solution. Like I said, many more having the same issues as I am, so not unique to my PC. Oh I also notched at sign on, to that build, instead of a full menu to use, pin or select other options, I am only given choice to enter pin. No place even to click that I forgot password, either.

 

Microsoft hasn't used Passwords in some time now.

 

My build 25346 is running great except for the disk write issue.

 

Mine is running great on this build on both my laptop and desktop.

 

If anyone is experiencing wired network disconnects/speed dropping to 100mbps, auto-negotiation seems to be at fault. I kept having these issues since 25336 on one machine with a realtek nic and finally figured it out.

 

What RTL NIC exactly?

 

RTL8168

 

How to fix it?

 

I suppose disable it in NIC driver settings.

This fix seem to apply to intel plagued i22x too.

I've been disabling it either way, so I didn't notice.

 

This week we should see Canary jump from 253xx to 258xx builds.

 

Hmmm. As I imagined. Absolutely nothing for Dev or Canary, not even for Server.

I cannot confirm at all, that the Build 25346.1001 has a bad Write performance.
Here are the results of my benchmark test:



My advice: Please check your settings and your SSD.

 

What I measured is "SATA SSD", I didn't measure "NVMe SSD", so I don't know the details.

 

@sizen

An NVMe SSD is much faster than a SATA SSD, but the impact of a certain OS Build on the performance of a certain PC doesn't depend on the in-use data transfer protocol.
Here are the results I got with a SATA SSD while running Win11 Build 25346.1001:

 

1TB 970 Evo+ , ~65% filled, Windows default NVMe driver. Sequencial writes used to be about 2x some time back. Samsung offer their own NVMe driver which might give better results, but everytime I used it, it ended up corrupting random files after some time.
