Windows 11 KB5018496 (Build 22621.755) Change Log

According to the official release notes, this optional update changes the search visuals in Windows 11. Microsoft is A/B testing a new visual update for the Windows search panel, and some devices may notice a different design as the company gathers feedback. The tech giant has also enhanced the backup experience when using a Microsoft Account (MSA).

Microsoft has also integrated the MS Account experience in Settings. So you can now easily manage your OneDrive subscriptions and related storage alerts directly from the Windows 11 Settings app! This feature has been in testing for a while, and Microsoft's efforts to link online services with Settings began with Xbox integration.

Another new feature is a new way to access Task Manager - the taskbar's right-click context menu. This feature has always been part of the operating system but was removed with the release of Windows 11 version 21H2.

Here is a list of all bug fixes and improvements:

  • Fixed an issue where Microsoft Edge would not run in IE mode.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause vertical and horizontal line artifacts.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented the Credentials UI from displaying in IE mode,
  • Fixed an issue that prevented audio from syncing with games recorded using the Xbox Game Bar.
